Taylor Swift’s name is everywhere these days.

But this is one time Swift wouldn’t want her name in the headlines.

And a video naming Taylor Swift is now the subject of this police investigation.

Retired NFL star Jason Kelce is the subject of a police investigation for an incident that took place when he attended the Ohio State-Penn State football game.

The Penn State Police and Public Safety’s daily crime listed a matter under investigation for when an “officer observed a visitor damaging personal property.”

A New York Post report revealed the “crime log listed the possible offenses as criminal mischief and disorderly conduct for the incident.”

Kelce was walking through the crowd that was in attendance for ESPN’s College Gameday high-fiving fans.

But one fan confronted Kelce and mocked his brother for dating Taylor Swift.

“Hey Kelce, how does it feel that your brother is a f—–t for dating Taylor Swift?” the fan sneered while shoving his phone in Kelce’s face to record the encounter.

An obviously annoyed Kelce grabbed the fan’s phone and smashed it on the ground.

Suddenly the fan wasn’t so tough anymore and began whining “give me my phone, Kelce.” 

The “fan” realized that mocking a 6’3 295 pound athlete was a major mistake.

Kelce got up in his tormentors face and snarled  “who’s the f—-t now?”  


Kelce received massive amounts of sympathy and support on social media for putting an obnoxious fan in their place.

“I’m on Kelce’s side with this one. FAFO,” conservative activist Riley Gaines posted on social media.

Penn State coach James Franklin also defended Kelce saying fans needed to understand boundaries and respect.

“I love that there was a consequence to his action,” Franklin told reporters. “Can it go too far sometimes and we talk about passion and all those things being great? Yes. But that also doesn’t excuse bad behavior at times. It comes with the territory, but that doesn’t make it right.”

But America being what it is in 2024 and since Jason Kelce is a celebrity who appears on TV, Kelce had to issue a groveling apology on ESPN’s Monday Night Countdown.

“I’m not happy with anything that took place. I’m not proud of it,” Kelce began.

“And in a heated moment, I chose to greet hate with hate, and I just don’t think that’s a productive thing. I really don’t. I don’t think it leads to discourse, and [don’t think] it’s the right way to go about things. In that moment, I fell down to a level that I shouldn’t have. So I think the bottom line is, I try to live my life by the golden rule. It’s what I’ve always been taught. I try to treat people with common decency and respect, even though I fell short this week. I’m going to do that moving forward and continue to do that,” Kelce concluded.
