Jason Kelce forced to apologize to appease horse racing fans

Philadelphia Eagles’ legend Jason Kelce stirred up controversy in the horse racing community with his recent comments about the iconic thoroughbred, Secretariat

Kelce, known for his outspoken nature, suggested that Secretariat might have been doping during his racing career in the 1970s.

These remarks sparked a heated debate on social media among sports fans and horse racing fans.

Kelce’s comments came in response to a discussion about Secretariat’s remarkable achievements and physical attributes.

Someone on X refuted the idea of Secretariat being on steroids, citing the horse’s naturally enlarged heart as a possible explanation for its extraordinary performance.

However, Kelce wasn’t convinced, arguing that the prevalence of steroid use in the 1970s, coupled with the lack of adequate testing at the time, raised suspicions about the legendary horse’s accomplishments.

In a lengthy post, Kelce expressed his skepticism, pointing out Secretariat’s unparalleled muscular stature and the absence of reliable testing methods during that era.

He acknowledged the possibility that Secretariat could have been a natural talent but emphasized the likelihood of performance-enhancing drug use among racehorses at the time.
