Former Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce apologized after he faced backlash for his theory former racehorse champion Secretariat was on steroids when the thoroughbred became the ninth Triple Crown winner in history.
During the May 8 edition of the “New Heights” podcast, which Jason co-hosts with his brother Travis Kelce, the former NFL offensive lineman cited Secretariat’s speed records when he claimed the horse was “juiced to the gills.”
He later doubled down on his claim by suggesting Secretariat’s “unparalleled muscular stature” was concerning.
“But the fact this horse had unparalleled muscular stature and died with an enlarged heart, and raced at a time when steroids were extremely prevalent, without adequate testing, raises flags in my book,” Kelce wrote in a social media post.
