Jason Kelce issues stark warning over fake quotes after retirement

Former NFL star Jason Kelce has taken to social media to warn fans about fake quotes being attributed to him. The 37-year-old, who rarely posts on his X account, felt compelled to speak out after discovering that multiple profiles had credited him with remarks defending Bad Bunny ahead of his Super Bowl LX performance.

The alleged quote read: "If Bad Bunny is a bad fit for the Super Bowl, then maybe the people making these comments are a bad fit for America's future." Kelce, who retired from the Philadelphia Eagles last March, has now set the record straight. "I normally don't comment on things like this, but I feel I need to address that there are a number of accounts posting fake quotes and attributing them to me on this platform right now," he declared.

He thanked X for adding community notes to several posts and said he would not address the accounts specifically to avoid amplifying their engagement. "Please know, unless you hear something directly from me via one of my platforms, it is not real," he added.

Since retiring, Kelce has moved into punditry and co-hosts a podcast with his brother Travis, the Kansas City Chiefs star who is engaged to Taylor Swift. The podcast's Instagram account recently announced that Keanu Reeves will be their next guest.

In a preview clip, Travis backed the Chiefs to win next year's Super Bowl. The Chiefs were runners-up to the Eagles earlier this year and have started the current season with three wins and three losses. Travis recently became the Chiefs' all-time leader in all-purpose yards and was fined £11,000 earlier this season for an obscene gesture.
