Kelce proceeded to slam the heckler\u2019s phone to the ground before retaliating verbally.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The incident took place Saturday, November 2 outside Penn State University\u2019s Beaver Stadium. Kelce was on campus to appear on ESPN\u2019s\u00a0College GameDay<\/i>\u00a0ahead of Penn State\u2019s football showdown with Ohio State.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Original story below:<\/span><\/p>\n Jason Kelce<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0grabbed and threw a heckler\u2019s phone on the ground after hearing an offensive slur about his brother,\u00a0Travis Kelce<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n Jason, 36, was seen hurling the smartphone on Saturday, November 2,\u00a0during an appearance<\/a>\u00a0on ESPN\u2019s\u00a0College Game Day<\/i>. According to\u00a0social media<\/a>\u00a0footage, Jason was told that Travis, 35, was an offensive term because of his relationship with pop star\u00a0Taylor Swift<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Jason did not respond further to the heckler\u2019s comment, swiftly turning to walk away.<\/p>\n Jason and Travis\u00a0have always been close<\/a>\u00a0long before their respective careers in the NFL. (Jason was drafted by the Philadelphia Eagles as a center in 2011, two years before Travis signed with the Kansas City Chiefs to play tight end. Jason retired earlier this year.)<\/p>\n The two brothers were\u00a0the first siblings to face off<\/a>\u00a0in the Super Bowl in 2023 \u2014 and the Chiefs won.<\/p>\n \u201cThe coolest thing about this Super Bowl was that my whole family was there. I got to play against my brother Jason, who is an Eagle, and my mom was on TV more than both of us,\u201d Travis joked in his\u00a0Saturday Night Live\u00a0<\/i>monologue weeks later. \u201cMy mom, dad and brother are all here tonight.\u201d<\/p>\n He added, \u201cYou know, people keep asking me what it was like to beat my brother in the Super Bowl. And, um, it was pretty awkward especially because after the game we had to ride home together. Our mom drove us there in her minivan. Even though his team lost after being up 10 points at half, my brother is actually really happy for me.\u201d<\/p>\n Jason and Travis, the two sons of exes\u00a0Ed<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Donna Kelce<\/strong>, have also remained close as they grew up and expanded the family. Jason, for his part, shares three daughters with wife\u00a0Kylie Kelce<\/strong>. Travis has\u00a0a special bond<\/a>\u00a0with his sister-in-law, too.<\/p>\n The two brothers also cohost a weekly podcast called \u201cNew Heights\u201d where they discuss the latest football news \u2014 and updates in their personal life. It was thanks to quotes from the podcast that Travis was able to land his first date with Swift, 34.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s been crazy [and] then Travis and Taylor have taken it to another level and that\u2019s a whole other side of it,\u201d Jason recalled during a June episode of\u00a0the \u201cWhiskey Ginger\u201d podcast<\/a>. \u201cLike, Kylie and I think we have it bad and then we go hang out with one of them for a second. This is a whole other situation here [and] I don\u2019t even know how to, like, you can\u2019t be a normal person at that point.\u201d<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/usdailys.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/1-Jason-Kelce-Smashes-Hecklers-Phone-for-Calling-Brother-Travis-a-Slur-Over-Taylor-Swift-Romance-300x258.webp\")
