ESPN analyst and former Philadelphia Eagles star center Jason Kelce isn’t buying James Houston’s bizarre (albeit hilarious) excuse about his apparent “poop” stain being something completely unrelated.
During the Detroit Lions-Houston Texans ‘Sunday Night Football’ game at NRG Stadium, cameras caught a colored substance on Houston’s pants. He claimed afterward on X/Twitter that he simply “sat on some Gatorade”, but Jason Kelce isn’t buying it.
During the latest appearance on the “New Heights” podcast that he co-hosts with younger brother Travis Kelce, Jason challenged Houston’s claim that it was just Gatorade. The former Philadelphia Eagles suggests it was, indeed, poop on Houston’s pants:
“This is why I hate white pants. This is not the first time this has happened. I know many players this has happened to.
“Travis, you and I both know he didn’t sit on no Gatorade. Not in that exact specific spot. We all know what that is. And he has nothing to be ashamed of. I am here to have your back, James. I did this before a game once.”
Jason Kelce shared a story where he felt like he had a No. 2 accident, but his teammate told him he was good. After going out for warmups, Lane Johnson told Kelce that he had visible you-know-what coming down his pants.
Regardless of what happened with Houston, he shouldn’t feel any shame, as Kelce pointed out. Sometimes nature calls, and there are several notable instances of pro athletes having a bathroom-related accident during events.
Houston recorded his first sack of the season in Sunday’s 26-23 win over the Texans, helping the Lions improve to 8-1. They’ll look to make it 9-1 when the Jacksonville Jaguars come to town on Sunday.
Jason Kelce Is Flourishing In Year One Of Retirement
Kelce announced his retirement from football after a 13-year career in Philly that will lead him to the Pro Football Hall of Fame in his first year of eligibility. After retiring, he signed a deal with ESPN to work as an analyst on their “Monday Night Football.”
The 37-year-old and his younger brother signed a massive $100 million podcast deal with Amazon, too. Their podcast continues too garner millions and millions of viewers, and it obviously helps that Travis is in a relationship with the world’s most famous singer in Taylor Swift.
