Why Jason Kelce apologized during ESPN broadcast after Pat McAfee callout

Jason Kelce got called out by Pat McAfee and apologized on ESPN. Here's why.

Philadelphia Eagles legend Jason Kelce made an apology during an ESPN broadcast after facing criticism for referring to the team as "we" during a Monday Night Football broadcast. The incident occurred during halftime, when Kelce was part of the Monday Night Football crew and broke down the eventual Eagles loss. Pat McAfee, who was beside him, remarked, "A lot of 'we' talk out of Jason from Philly."

Kelce quickly apologized, trying to stay neutral with his analysis. Kelce's apology came under scrutiny, with Ryan Clark noting on X (formerly Twitter) that it was the Eagles' future Hall of Famer, who continues to represent the team with pride and loyalty. Despite the criticism, Kelce's dedication to the franchise remains unquestionable, and his apology serves as a reminder of his commitment to the Eagles.
