Legendary Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce was in the midst of a bizarre interaction on social media in the wake of the Kentucky Derby last weekend.
Kelce made a claim about one of the most controversial health issues surrounding the NFL today in response to a post directed at him on X/Twitter.
The whole interaction that resulted in Jason Kelce making a claim about his health began with Kelce claiming The Secretariat was on steroids.
Kelce said that there was not adequate testing during their time and that there were many recorded uses of steroids dating back to the 60s. The Secretariat’s wins took place in the early 70s.
Following Kelce’s original claim about Secretariat, someone responded to him with the claim that his steroid accusation only occurred due to the fact that Kelce suffered from CTE.
The poster claimed that a symptom of CTE is making completely unfounded claims, just like the one Kelce supposedly made in the initial post.
Kelce then responded saying that the responder is being very reasonable when making the claim that he has CTE. Kelce, who played in the trenches in one of the toughest divisions in the NFL for 13 years, made no effort to claim that the original responder was wrong in saying that he suffered from CTE.
