Travis gay
Former Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce appeared to smash the phone of a man who called his brother, Travis, a gay slur for dating celebrity artist Taylor Swift.
Kelce, now a football analyst with ESPN, attended the Penn State vs. Ohio State game Saturday when videos of the incident on social media, which were verified by NBC News, circulated.
Multiple angles showed Kelce walking through the crowd with a case of beer in his hand when a man in the background could be heard shouting in Kelce's guide before using the slur.
Kelce then appeared to change around, grab the phone, smash it on the earth, pick it up off the floor and walk away. A different angle appeared to present the man pursue after Kelce asking for the device back, to which words were exchanged.
Another angle showed Kelce repeating the slur back at the man three times in doubt form after picking up the handset off the ground.

ESPN did not have a comment when initially reached out to by NBC10 Philadelphia.
