Jason Kelce advises women to be smarter after fake 49ers player’s scam
Jason Kelce has some important advice for women.
The NFL offseason is almost over and with the return of football comes a new season of the "New Heights" podcast. Travis Kelce and Jason Kelce returned on Thursday to discuss a major football story of the summer: Daejon Love. Love allegedly defrauded dozens of women out of more than $1.3 million by posing as a professional football player.
After watching a video of Love's training, Jason Kelce offered some advice to female listeners. "It's absolutely crazy that someone would do this," he said. "We got to be smarter, women. We need to be able to sniff through this one." He emphasized that women, now more empowered in the job market, need to be vigilant against such scams.
Jason also drew a parallel to past scams targeting men, such as Manti Te'o's hoax. This message resonated with the podcast's audience, which shifted to primarily women following Travis Kelce's relationship with Taylor Swift. The Kelce brothers will begin the NFL season in Kansas City, as their team, the Chiefs, host the Denver Broncos on Monday Night Football in Week 1.
