Riley Gaines reacts to Jason Kelce slamming a fan's phone after his brother was subjected to insults for dating Taylor Swift

Riley Gaines has come out in support of former NFL legend Jason Kelce. The 24-year-old social activist reacted to Kelce slamming the phone of a fan after the latter disrespected his brother Travis Kelce for dating Taylor Swift.

Kelce, who formerly represented the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFL, recently visited Penn State University for a kicking challenge against the local student Erik Harken, promoted by ESPN College Football. He was heckled by a local fan over his brother dating Taylor Swift, to which Kelce responded by smashing the fan's phone to the ground.

Gaines took to her X handle to express her thoughts on this incident.

"I'm on Kelce's side with this one. FAFO"

The video posted online captured the former NFL star's reaction when an individual made remarks about Travis Kelce's relationship with the pop singer.

"Hey Kelce, how does it feel that your brother is a f***** dating Taylor Swift?"

To which Kelce responded by slamming the fan's phone and saying,

"Who's the f***** now?"

Travis Kelce has been dating Taylor Swift since 2023. Her presence at the NFL games in the 2023 season led to a wider interest in both the league and the Kansas City Chiefs team, for whom Kelce plays as the tight end.
