Insulting the man’s brother doesn’t seem like the wisest move

American football star Jason Kelce, brother of Travis Kelce, appeared to throw someone’s phone to the ground in an altercation after he used a homophobic slur to refer to his brother’s relationship with Taylor Swift.

It’s likely It has not escaped your notice that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are a couplewith their respective fame being so closely aligned that their relationship is one of the most famous in the world.

Both have legions of fans, though Swift’s will likely be significantly larger, who now support, root, stabilize, and have various other parasocial interactions.

However, the pair apparently have their detractors, as someone used a homophobic slur to describe the relationship in front of Travis’ brother Jason.

The NFL player was walking in State College, Pennsylvania, when he was surrounded by people, many with their phones out, filming him.

While some people tried to get a punch out of the Philadelphia Eagles star, one person in the crowd around Jason Kelce had a very different kind of interaction in mind.

Footage posted to social media showed Jason was out and about when someone shouted a homophobic slur at him about his brother Travis’ relationship with singer Taylor Swift.

In the footage, the person shouted, “Hey Kelce! How do you feel about your brother dating Taylor Swift?”

In the video, the NFL star then turned around and plucked the man’s phone from his hand and threw it to the ground.

Another video of the incident showed that Jason then grabbed the man’s phone off the ground and walked away with it.

According to NBC, another piece of footage showed Kelce confronting a person and asking them “who’s going on now.”
