A video of Jason Kelce went viral after a Pennsylvania State University student came up to him to say his brother “is a f****t for dating Taylor Swift.”

In response, the former Philadelphia Eagle grabbed the fan’s phone and threw it onto the ground, picking up the phone and walkinh away with it as the student demanded that he give it back.

In another video obtained by TMZ, Jason responded to the fan by taunting, “Who’s the f****t now?”

While it’s no surprise that Jason passionately came to his brother’s defense, a lot of folks are still upset that the retired NFL player used a slur. Travis addressed that disappointment and the entire situation on Wednesday’s episode of their podcast, New Heights.

“You had some f***ing clown come up to you talking about your family,” the Kansas City Chiefs star said. “You reacted in a way that was defending your family and you might have used some words that you regret using.”

Still, he praised his brother for “learn[ing] from” the experience and “own[ing]” it with an apology on ESPN Monday night.

“I know it’s weighing on you, brother,” he continued. “That s**t sucks. You shouldn’t feel this much…Everybody passing around the videos is gonna make it a bigger situation than what it really is.”

“You don’t choose hate,” Travis added of his older brother. “That’s not who you are.”

Jason went on to double down on his regret over the “hateful” footage, insisting that he wants to “stop talking about the really stupid situation” from this moment on.

Jason also said that “the thing I regret the most is saying that word, to be honest with you,” admitting it was “over the line.”
