Jason Kelce pushed to the ground by Penn State fan before repeating gay slurs thrown at him in new video

New video obtained by TMZ on Saturday shows a fan wearing a Penn State hoodie shoving Philadelphia Eagles legend Jason Kelce from behind, knocking him down, before Saturday’s game against Ohio State.

The previous video showed Kelce, who was on hand to participate in ESPN’s College Gameday, walking through a crowd near Beaver Stadium. Someone behind him yelled, “Hey Kelce, how does it feel to know your brother is a (homophobic slur) dating Taylor Swift?”

Kelce stopped, turned around, and walked back toward the young man in the Penn State hoodie — it’s not clear in the video that he was the one who shouted the slur, but Kelce seems to believe that he is the culprit – who was following him and filming with a phone. A second video clearly shows that Kelce then takes a cell phone from this person, places it on the asphalt, then picks it up and walks away with it.

The new video obtained by TMZ He picks up there with the fan following Kelce to get his phone. He can clearly be heard saying, “Give me my phone Kelce,” as he appears to push him from behind, knocking him off his feet.

Kelce appears and repeatedly asks the Penn State fan, “Who is (the gay slur) now?” Someone walks up to separate them and tells the fan, “Get the (expletive) out of here,” as Kelce continues. The fan appears to pick up his phone and continues behind Kelce.

Many comments on social media support Kelce’s response. Others suggested Kelce was wrong and should have continued walking.

It will be interesting to see what Jason has to say about all this because he will surely be asked about it the next time he is in front of a microphone. It will also be interesting to see what Penn State has to say about the harassment Kelce suffered, and if the person whose phone was broken has anything to say about the altercation.
