Former NFL Star Has Disgraceful Message For Jason Kelce
Former NFL Star Has Disgraceful Message For Jason Kelce originally appeared on The Spun. Earlier this week, former Philadelphia Eagles star Jason Kelce ditched his pants for a really good cause. The Eagles Autism Foundation held two events in New Jersey on Wednesday. There was a 21+ event Team 62 at Ocean Drive that featured Kelce and a few of his "celebrity friends," per the website. When the former All-Pro offensive lineman showed up to this event, he immediately established himself as the life of the party. Advertisement Kelce, 37, ripped off his American flag shorts to show off his patriotic underwear. It was a wild scene that generated plenty of awareness for the Eagles Autism Foundation. "Doing this puts eyes on the cause/foundation. He's good at marketing," one person wrote on X. "That's pure Jason Kelce right there. Most players retire and disappear. Kelce climbs on a lifeguard chair in a flag Speedo because he genuinely loves his people," another person saids.

His initial remarks were truly disgraceful. Advertisement "Jason Kelce getting naked for [expletive] kids but I'm the crazy one," Brown wrote on social media. This post from Brown immediately went viral on social media. Countless fans lectured him for using insensitive language. Brown is no stranger to making headlines for the wrong reasons. It was reported two weeks ago that he's facing a charge of attempted murder with a firearm. "I was jumped by multiple individuals who tried to steal my jewelry and cause physical harm to me," Brown wrote on X. "Contrary to some video circulating, Police temporarily detained me until they received my side of the story and then released me. I WENT HOME THAT NIGHT AND WAS NOT ARRESTED. I will be talking to my legal council and attorneys on pressing charges on the individuals that jumped me." Advertisement Brown, who last played in the NFL in 2021, just hasn't been able to stay out of his own way since storming off the field at MetLife Stadium. Judging by his latest social media post, he hasn't changed one bit.
