Jason Kelce Addresses Josh Innes’ Comments
On Tuesday afternoon, WIP afternoon host Josh Innes delivered a commentary about Eagles Center Jason Kelce which ruffled feathers in the city of brotherly love. Innes referred to Kelce as a ‘House Negro’, saying he had a track record of sucking up to Eagles coaches and high ranking members inside the organization.
Then on Tuesday night, Kelce took to Twitter to address Innes’ comments.
Innes did apologize for using a poor analogy to describe the situation. He told his audience that he deserved to be ridiculed for what he said and that he wasn’t trying to offend anyone but rather make the point that Kelce had become the team’s ‘Yes-Man’. WIP management has not yet commented on the situation.
