Nothing.
How old was the "kid"?
As a man in my 50s if I did something like this kid there would be a punch in the mouth. And then my father would probably have told me to stop being an ******* and you won't get punched in the mouth. People nowadays have free reign of acting like aholes with no repercussions other than some meaningless verbal condemnation. Then the "kid" will just do it again
I'm anti heckler. I was even partially on Blount side after his game in college. Just because you bought a ticket doesn't give you the right to be a complete tool bag. Always felt this way. And it's worse now with socials.
Well all the alleged gay people on Twitter are supporting Kelce.
Perhaps they haven't given it that much thought.
He kinda did control himself.
I think ESPN should ask the kid's parents if they can pinpoint how and where they failed as a parent to raise a child who thinks its ok to use homophobic slurs and act like this.
Agreed, but smashing his phone was a pretty reasonable action, all things considered. I don't know how old this kid was, but if his dad was around, his dad should step in an intervene. Kelce was just delivering a father-like lesson here.
Oh knock it off.
As a second leap of faith, I'm gonna guess Jason Kelce didn't smash that phone in defense of the LGBT+ community.
No there isn't. Not everything involves politics
The second Twitter link Joe posted. Kid yells hey give me back my phone as Kelce is picking it up and kind of bumps Kelce. Kelce stands up and as the kid backs up says who's the fword now?
Agree 100%.
I don't think people care if a real life troll gets his phone smashed by someone they have no opinion of.

He was a college student - but even punching an adult in the face can land you in legal trouble.
I think he should wait for the kid outside the phone store and smash that one too.
It’s probably not like this where you live but here in the East some college kids will drink alcoholic beverages.
Some people have to learn the hard way that being respectful is a good thing. Shrug. Not saying he needs to be KO’ed or have his jaw broken but sometimes immediate consequences are the best kind.
I would still say the heckler deserves what he gets, but I’d also be rooting for the phone to bounce into Tyreek’s/Aaron’s groin and leave shrapnel.
Hill would likely not get any benefit of the doubt because of his history, which is well documented.
The "fire him" suggestion was made tongue firmly planted in cheek.
You have far more faith in humanity than I do my friend.
You raise a good point, but the family might see life-changing money and opt to take their chances.
That's not realistic. Who a person is and what their history is matters. And it should.
The guys in the war room are secretly giving high fives and slapping Kelce on the backside.
It’s probably not worth it, as I’m sure Kelce will pay for a new phone (which is the extent of his damages unless they want to throw in some emotional distress claims which wouldn’t likely be viewed well in light of the racial slur).
No doubt about it.
silly word? maybe to you, but to some of us it’s more than just a silly word.
