Jason Kelce laughs about how teammate Brandon Graham used to trash talk: “Yeah fatboy, you know what’s comin”

When we think of trash talk we usually think about NBA players getting in each others’ faces and trying to distract their opponents. It happens sometimes in baseball and thanks to Jomboy Media we can hear/see what the players say to each other.

But in the NHL and NFL it’s more complicated because players wear helmets and masks and we really don’t know what goes on between the offensive line and defensive line, but Brandon Graham cleared that up for us the other day on the New Heights podcast.

Graham didn’t want to go into too much detail in order not to offend any listeners, but Travis asked him, “Does this happen in practice or what?” and before Graham could answer, Jason answered for him, “it never stopped.”

Jason continued to explain the harassment he got from Graham in practice, “We’d be going out for the two-minute drill or whatever and he’d be like, ‘yeah fat boy, you what’s comin’,” the older Kelce brother explained.

Graham is recently retired and said that’s one of the hard parts of not playing anymore, “Yeah man, I miss those times, those practices,” he said. Graham had earlier told the Kelce brothers how he used to trash talk without getting in trouble, “As I got to the league it got more animated, more fun, always try not to cuss, because that’s when the refs would throw a flag,” he said. “I’d try to have some but you know I was trying to be serious.”
