Few people had more fun over Super Bowl weekend than Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce.
While the Eagles fell short of making back-to-back appearances in the big game, Kelce was in Las Vegas to watch his little brother Travis lift the Lombardi Trophy once again, and partied both before and after the big game.
Through the week after the big game, videos continued to surface of Kelce’s amazing tour across Sin City. On the Friday before kickoff, the elder Kelce attended an Adele concert, and one video surfaced that appeared to show Jason yelling out “EAGLES!” in response to a question the singer posed on stage.
The video was shared by the social media accounts of the Kelces’ podcast New Heights, further suggesting it was Jason that had shouted out.
But on the most recent episode of their podcast, Kelce made clear that it was not, in fact, he who yelled at Adele.
“There’s a lot of fake news from the weekend,” Kelce said. “There’s a clip out there of— the guys behind us, they were Eagles fans and they saw that I was at the Adele concert. They were fired up. And Adele was asking who’s a fan of whatever, and they screamed out ‘Eagles!’ and everyone is saying I screamed out ‘Eagles!’ but I didn’t scream out ‘Eagles!’”

It wasn’t the only confusing viral moment of Kelce’s weekend that he decided to clear up on the podcast, as Jason also pleaded with his audience to realize that the picture of him dressed up as Zach Galifianakis’s character Alan from The Hangover was photoshopped.
Despite both viral moments ultimately being false, Kelce kept a good attitude about how things played out, telling his brother, “All publicity is good publicity I guess.”
