Jason Kelce opened up on a heated altercation between himself and his Kansas City Chiefs brother Travis Kelce.
Jason and Travis have become two of the most famous brothers to have graced the NFL and have shown their tight-knit bond on and off the field thanks to their popular New Heights podcast. However, Philadelphia Eagles legend Jason recently revealed that the duo had their fair share of sibling rivalry during their childhood just like any set of brothers.
Before making it big in the NFL, the Kelces seemingly nurtured their competitive edge at home, which sometimes saw tensions boil over. Appearing on an episode of Shaquille O’Neal’s ‘The Big Podcast’, Jason, who announced his retirement from the NFL earlier this year, recounted a rare occasion he and his brother came to blows.
The former center said he once let his frustrations get the better of him and intentionally fouled his younger brother, who was making too many baskets for his liking during a game of basketball in their backyard – something that Travis didn’t take too kindly to.
‘We’re out in the backyard and he starts just driving and doing these stupid shots,’ Jason said. ‘He’s making it every single time and I can’t do anything to stop it. So I resort to fouling him, the only way I know how to stop it.
‘So he says “That’s bulls**t, that’s a foul.” I’m like “I don’t see any refs out here, I don’t see anyone calling it.” ‘He takes the ball, throws it at me, it goes in the house. I go in there, I grab him by the shoulder and I punch him.’
Jason did insists that it was only the second time he had landed a hit on Travis as he went on to reveal his sibling’s furious reaction.
Listen, we would fight every time,’ Jason said. ‘This was only the second time I’d ever punched him. I don’t know how it got that heated. Punched him in the face. Every time before that, he would cry or whatever.
‘He took this punch, scooped me up off my feet and slammed me on the kitchen floor so hard the oven got knocked off the tracks. I get up, we’re in a full-on fist fight.’
