Former Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce apologized Monday for smashing a person’s phone after an anti-gay slur was used to refer to his brother, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.

“Listen, I’m not happy with anything that took place. I’m not proud of it,” Jason Kelce said on ESPN’s “Monday Night Countdown,” the pregame show on which he is a panelist.

“And in a heated moment, I chose to greet hate with hate. And I just don’t think that that’s a productive thing. I really don’t,” Kelce said.

The incident happened Saturday outside Penn State’s Beaver Stadium in Pennsylvania at the game between Penn State and Ohio State.

Video on social media and verified by NBC News shows Kelce walking outside the stadium holding a case of beer while he is surrounded by fans.
