"Roid Rage"...

In case you didn't know, the NFL tests for steroids...

And no, he didn't "have to be taken away by a teammate"... He had already made his point and was holding his coach's arm so he wouldn't fall down when he realized he had bumped him...

You've obviously never followed his career...

Of course, I hope you are correct.

Having worked out beside elite (including Olympic) athletes in the past I learned, they can stop taking steroids before competition long enough to be undetectable, but the brain damage and personality change can be permanent.

Except the NFL plays for well over 6 months straight, so their "competition" lasts a long time...

These guys start out in high school. They use steroids to bulk up at a young age. Kelce is 34 years old already.

You do realize that if you stop taking steroids, the muscle gain effects go away, don't you?

And they also test for steroids in college (much stricter than the NFL's testing)...

In fact, Kelce tested positive for THC the day before a Bowl game (he was in New Orleans for the game), and he lost his scholarship... It almost cost him his career...

Well his brother shows the same type of neanderthal behavior so it’s possible that it is a family trait. I understand it appeals to some people. But it is not sportsmanship.

His brother is beloved by his teammates, coaches and opposing players alike...

He is the epitome of sportsmanship...

Perhaps I’ve only seen him in limited times. I believe you.

Unfortunately, thru no fault of their own, many only recently know of either of them...

Watch the Netflix special on Jason Kelce... It shows him in his "real" life...

It was filmed in 2022, leading up to last year's Superbowl, where he played against his brother...

It shows how they grew up, their sibling rivalries, their unwavering love and support for each other...
