Kelce was seen mixing with fans outside Beaver Stadium until he was heckled by one supporter , who made offensive comments about his brother, Travis Kelce, and his relationship with popstar Taylor Swift .

The fan continued to press Kelce until the retired Philadelphia Eagles center reacted, grabbing a phone out of his hand.

The NFL legend was at Beaver Stadium due to being a guest on ESPN's College Gameday, and the incident went viral on social media before his weekly appearance on 'Monday Night Football' for ESPN.

Kelce apologized for the incident on MNF ahead of the game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers .

However, Penn State University Police have confirmed that the fan was never identified, and no one has come forward to issue a complaint or attempt to press charges.

As a result, the case has been closed, and Kelce will not be charged.

Brett Favre reveals his side of story after being confronted over Michael Strahan record controversy 'I'm ESPN's top college football analyst - my son just followed Bryce Underwood to Michigan' "The individual in the video footage circulating on social media has not been identified, and no one has come forward to University Police with a related complaint about the damage to personal property," read a statement from the school on Tuesday.

The news was celebrated by fans on social media, who have sided with Kelce throughout.

While Kelce may have risked crossing a physical barrier, fans believed that the former NFL star was sticking up for his brother while also supporting Swift.

The remarks made by the fan were also extremely inappropriate, but Kelce will be glad that the ordeal is over.

Kelce made a point to apologize right at the start of MNF despite the support from fans, with studio host Joe Buck offering to 'give him the floor' so that he could address the situation.

"I think everybodys seen on social media everything that took place this week," Kelce said on Nov.

"Listen, Im not Im not happy with anything that took place.

Im not proud of it and, you know, in a heated moment, I chose to greet hate with hate, and I just dont think that thats a productive thing.

I really dont.

I dont think that, you know, it leads to discourse and its and its the right way to go about things.

"And in that moment, I fell down to a level that I shouldnt have.

So I think the bottom line is: I want to live my life I try to live my life by the golden rule.

Thats what Ive always been taught.

I try to treat people with common decency and respect, and Im going to keep doing that moving forward even though this past even though I fell short this week, Im going to do that moving forward and continue to do that.

"So, yeah, I think we got a game to focus on.

Obviously, the matchup, I dont think this is the platform to necessarily go into more detail, so.

So, lets get ready for this Chiefs game.".
