"In a heated moment, I decided to greet hate with hate," Kelce said, according to a 6abc Action News story. "I fell short this week."
Kelce was in State College for a Big Ten matchup between the Buckeyes and Nittany Lions when a fan began to heckle him as he was walking through a crowd, the Action News report states.

"In that moment I fell down to a level that I shouldn't have," Kelce said, the Action News report states.
