Jason Kelce is speaking out on false quotes wrongly attributed to him on social media
One quote insinuated that he had spoken in support of Bad Bunny's upcoming Super Bowl halftime performance in 2026, but Kelce has yet to speak on the matter
"I feel the need to address that there are a number of accounts posting fake quotes and attributing them to me on this platform right now," the retired NFL star wrote in part on Tuesday, Oct. 14
Jason Kelce is setting the record straight after quotes incorrectly attributed to him have gone viral.
"I normally don’t comment on things like this, but I feel I need to address that there are a number of accounts posting fake quotes and attributing them to me on this platform right now," Kelce, 37, wrote on X on Tuesday, Oct. 14.
The New Heights podcast co-host continued, "I appreciate @X putting community notes on several and I will not address the other accounts specifically, because I do not want to amplify their engagement. But please know, unless you hear something directly from me via one of my platforms, it is not real."
One false quote that went viral made it appear as though Kelce was critical of those who did not feel Bad Bunny should perform at the Super Bowl. "If Bad Bunny is a bad fit for the Super Bowl, then maybe the people," the quote wrongly attributed to Kelce read.
However, Kelce has not shared his opinion for or against Bad Bunny being the halftime performer on his verified social media pages.

The false statement referenced the online criticism of the announcement of Bad Bunny's upcoming 2026 Super Bowl halftime show performance.
Bad Bunny's most recent album, DeBí TiRAR Más FOToS, is entirely in Spanish. This will not be the first Super Bowl halftime show performed in Spanish, as Jennifer Lopez and Shakira performed partially in Spanish in 2020.
