The identity of the man who clashed with Jason Kelce on Penn State's campus last weekend remains a mystery.
University police are still trying to figure out who was involved in the altercation with the former Eagles center before the Nittany Lions-Ohio State game. According to TMZ Sports.
On Saturday, Kelce went viral after being filmed online slamming a Penn State fan's cell phone into the ground after being hurled a homophobic slur at him outside Beaver Stadium.
Warning: Graphic language
A university spokesperson told the outlet that no one had come forward to report their personal property damaged on Saturday.
Earlier this week, Pennsylvania State Police told the Post that they are investigating the incident and that the “investigation is ongoing.”

Kelce expressed regret about the incident on ESPN's “Monday Night Countdown,” but stopped short of issuing a full-fledged apology.
“I think everyone saw what happened this week on social media. Listen, I'm not happy with what happened. I'm not bragging. In the moment of excitement, I greet haters with hate. I don't think that's a productive thing to do, really. I don't think it leads to an argument, and I think that's the right way to go about it, but in the moment. I fell to a level I shouldn't have,” Kelce said.

Kelce doubled down later that week on the “New Heights” podcast with his brother Travis Kelce.
“I'm not happy with the situation,” Kelce said. “My reaction gave him time and also added notoriety to the situation. That's a shame. It's okay. It wasn't worth the attention. It was really stupid and if we kept going like this… , you end up with a nothing burger. No one is looking.
“Now it's out there and it just perpetuates more hate. What I regret most is honestly saying those words. The words he used are just ridiculous. It's something that takes it to another level. It's just off the wall, it's over the line. As a human, it resonated and it evoked the heat of the moment. I did.”
