Top 5 Most Annoying Fan Bases In The NFL (1:08)

Chris Russo was a small dedicated hater during Wednesday's edition of First Take

Russo was on the panel and was discussing how he has seen enough of Jason Kelce these last few weeks. ESPN hired Kelce after he retired from the NFL this past season and has had some hilarious moments on Monday Night Countdown these last few weeks.

Despite the funny moments, Russo still threw some shade at Kelce, saying it's been a lot. 

"I think we've all seen plenty of Jason Kelce in the last few weeks," Russo said. "They put him in the booth in the Philadelphia game against Atlanta!"

Stephen A. Smith disagreed with Russo, calling Kelce a "new star" to the network and he's happy to see him doing well. 

Kelce regularly appears on Monday Night Countdown, which will continue to be the case throughout the 2024 season. He brings good analysis and some funny banter to the show each Monday. 

Even though he's been all over ESPN the last few weeks, it's a good thing since fans are getting the chance to see how he does as an analyst. 

He'll be back on Monday Night Countdown next Monday to help preview both Monday night games.
