Jason Kelce Investigation Results Revealed After PSU Phone Incident

The results of a Penn State University police investigation into an altercation between Jason Kelce and a football fan have been revealed.

A spokeswoman for Penn State University Police told TMZ Sports on Tuesday, December 10 that the case has been closed: “The individual in the video footage circulating on social media has not been identified, and no one has come forward to University Police with a related complaint about damage to personal property.”

Jason, 37, made headlines on November 2 when a heckler approached him at the Penn State vs. Ohio State football game in Pennsylvania and made a homophobic comment about his brother, Travis Kelce, amid the 35-year-old Kansas City Chiefs tight end’s relationship with Taylor Swift.

“Hey, Kelce. How does it feel your brother’s a f— dating Taylor Swift?” the person said.

The Kelce family has had their fair share of controversies over the years, both on and off the football field. In November 2024, Jason Kelce found himself in hot water after video footage showed him swatting an unidentified college student’s phone out of their hand moments after the person called his brother, Travis Kelce, a […]

Jason subsequently grabbed the heckler’s phone, smashed it on the ground and responded, “Who’s the f— now?”

Us Weekly later confirmed that Penn State University Police were investigating the incident.

Two days after the altercation, Jason broke his silence during the November 4 episode of ESPN’s Monday Night Countdown.

“I’m not happy with anything that took place. I’m not proud of it,” he said at the time. “Within a heated moment, I chose to greet hate with hate and I don’t think that’s a productive thing. I don’t think it leads to discourse.”

Jason Kelce and Travis Kelce have an enviable sibling bond full of support, laughter and, of course, football. As the brothers have found success in the NFL, they have shared glimpses of their relationship off the field. Their family even served as inspiration for Travis’ Saturday Night Live monologue, which he hosted for the first […]

He added, “In that moment I fell down to a level that I shouldn’t have. Bottom line is, I try to live my life by the golden rules. That’s what I’ve always been taught. I try to treat people with decency and respect. I’m going to keep doing that moving forward.”

Jason went into more detail during the November 6 episode of his and Travis’ “New Heights” podcast.

“I’m just gonna address it because I feel like it needs one more time and then hopefully we can stop talking about this really stupid situation that occurred,” he began. “I’m not happy about the situation. Me reacting gave him the time of day and it also gave the situation notoriety. That’s what I regret. It didn’t deserve attention, it’s really stupid. And if I just keep walking it’s a nothing burger, nobody sees it. Now it’s out there and it just perpetuates more hate.”

If Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are indeed endgame, she’s seemingly already won over her in-laws. The Grammy winner and the Kansas City Chiefs tight end began dating during summer 2023. That September, Swift started attending Chiefs games, sitting with the athlete’s mother, Donna Kelce, for the first time on October 1, 2024. That same […]

He continued, “The thing that I regret the most is saying that word, to be honest with you, and the word he used is just f—ing ridiculous. And it takes it to another level. It’s just off the wall, f—ing over the line. It’s dehumanizing and it got under my skin and it elicited a reaction. In the heat of the moment, I thought, ‘Hey, what can I say back to him? I’m gonna throw this s— right back into his face. F— him.’ I know now that I shouldn’t have done that because now there’s a video out there with me saying that word, him saying that word, and it’s not good for anybody.”

Jason noted that his biggest “regret” about the ordeal “is that now there’s a video that is very hateful that is now online that has been seen by millions of people,” concluding, “I share fault in perpetuating it and having that out there.”

Travis, meanwhile, applauded his brother for taking accountability for the incident. “The real situation is you had some f—ing clown come up to you and talk about your family, and you reacted in a way that was defending your family,” he said on the podcast. “You might have used some words that you regret using, and that’s a situation that you just gotta kind of learn from and own. And I think you owning it and you speaking about it shows how sincere you are to a lot of people in this world.”
