Social media is saying the same thing about ESPN analyst Jason Kelce after he offered an on-air apology over the cell phone smashing incident with a heckling fan on Saturday.
Jason Kelce was in Happy Valley for the Penn State-Ohio State showdown on Saturday. While he was walking about, a heckling fan came up to Kelce and called his brother Travis a “f****t” for dating Taylor Swift.
Multiple videos went viral of Kelce smashing the fan’s cell phone and asking, “Who’s the f****t now?” A video of the incident is available below, but be warned it contains disturbing language that is NSFW:

During ESPN’s “Monday Night Countdown” program, Jason Kelce broke his silence on the incident and expressed regret over what occurred:
“Listen, I’m not happy with anything that took place. I’m not proud of it. In a heated moment, I chose to greet hate with hate, and I just don’t think that’s a productive thing…In that moment I fell down to a level that I shouldn’t have. Bottom line is, I want to live my life…I try to treat people with common decency and respect…Even though I fell short this week, I’m gonna do that moving forward.”

Fans, however, don’t think that Kelce owed an apology for how he acted towards the fan:
Jason Kelce is a good man.
No one faults him, that bum kid intentionally tried to get a reaction out of Kelce and got it. Calling someones family out of their name and swearing and calling them slurs is pathetic. No one would have faulted Kelce if he did worse than he did.…

Shouldn’t have apologized

No apology was needed

Feel like ESPN talked him into it. Kelce did nothing wrong in my eyes

Gonna say this one time. @JasonKelce has nothing to apologize about at all. It pisses me off that he felt like he needed to. Jason you united so many people. What he did was show you stand up for your family. And he showed what being a great big brother is.

ESPN having Jason Kelce apologize for breaking the phone is a joke. Lol. Buddy shoving a phone in Kelces face and saying ignorant stuff learned a lesson that day.

I know DARN WELL @espn didn’t just make @JasonKelce apologize on national television for a kid that entered his space and called his brother A NAME?! I mean REALLY?? ESPN y’all ain’t …! Jason you didn’t need to apologize nor should you feel bad about it, man. @ESPNNFL 😒 pic.twitter.com/Sr8flWN4jc

Penn State police are currently investigating the incident between the Philadelphia Eagles legend and the heckler. The fan has not been publicly identified.
Jason Kelce’s Message Was Powerful
Regardless of who you think was at fault, Kelce should be applauded for owning up to his actions and words. Even if you think he did nothing wrong, Kelce is right about the importance of not sinking to the low levels of others.
