Crazy Video Shows Jason Kelce Interacting With ‘Jimmy Kimmel’ Heckler

Jason Kelce showed his perspective from the intense interaction he had with a demanding autograph seeker outside Jimmy Kimmel Live! 

In a video posted via Kelce’s YouTube channel on Tuesday, December 10, the former football star can be seen calmly interacting with the man who relentlessly heckled him outside the show’s Hollywood studio on November 21. 

“I have love for you,” Kelce, 37, tells the man as he climbs a fence and points a finger at Kelce. “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean anything about it. I promise you, OK?”

The heckler was upset that Kelce initially made a beeline for his vehicle after leaving the studio instead of making time for autographs.

Jason Kelce may be retired from the NFL, but he’s as busy as ever. The former center for the Philadelphia Eagles is getting ready to host a late night show on ESPN, aptly titled They Call it Late Night with Jason Kelce. Though this will be his first foray into late night, Kelce, 37, has […]

Kelce eventually makes his way over to the man and offers him a handshake as he dangles precariously from the fence with barbed wire running underneath him.

“I feel you and I appreciate you, brother,” Kelce says to him. 

The “New Heights” host eventually signs an autograph for the heckler, who apologizes to Kelce for his actions. 

After getting into his vehicle, Kelce explains why he was able to treat the man with patience for forgiveness. 

“I just feel like, if somebody is losing their mind like that, they really need it,” he says.

In the original video of the incident posted by TMZ, which showed the perspective of the heckler, the man berated Kelce for ignoring him. 

“Don’t do that, we’re the king of the streets,” the heckler yelled. “People are dying out here. You’re jumping in a car like a hotshot. Kiss my f—ing ass. You ain’t nobody special. Some s—bag guy that thinks he’s on some pedestal. Don’t be a d—!”

The interaction outside Jimmy Kimmel Live! came just weeks after Kelce made headlines for a confrontation with a heckler on the campus of Penn State University. 

Jason swatted the phone out of a young man’s hand before the Penn State-Ohio State game on November 2 after he used a homophobic slur to describe Jason’s brother, Travis Kelce, and his relationship with his girlfriend, Taylor Swift. In response, Jason slapped the heckler’s phone to the ground before repeating the homophobic slur three times himself. 

On Tuesday, a spokeswoman for Penn State University announced a police investigation involving Kelce’s behavior on the school’s campus had been closed. 

“The individual in the video footage circulating on social media has not been identified,” the spokeswoman told TMZ Sports, “and no one has come forward to University Police with a related complaint about damage to personal property.”
