Update: Chad Kelly’s Twitter account, recently updated to read “Ole Miss Quarterback,” has since been deleted. His last Tweet was on December 20th, reading “Someone please tell me there is a chipotle in Oxford.”
Chad Kelly is a mediocre at best Division I QB who calls himself “Swag.” That’s not the worst thing about him, though. This past weekend he was arrested in Buffalo after a fight at a club, Encore, where he got his a** kicked and then threatened to shoot up the club with an AK-47.
Buffalo? Kelly? Yes, Chad is Jim Kelly’s nephew.
Here’s how the Buffalo News reports what happened:
“Kelly, 20, of Niagara Falls, refused to leave Encore at 492 Pearl St. about 3:15 a.m. and punched a bouncer in the face, Buffalo police said. Kelly’s companion, Brandon Hickey, 21, of Clarence, had been thrown out of the bar earlier and tried to re-enter, police said.
Kelly continued to fight with two bouncers and stated “I’m going to go to my car and get my AK-47 and spray this place,” according to a report.
Buffalo police officers responding to that alleged threat stopped a 2005 Ford F-150 pickup truck in which Kelly was a passenger at 458 Pearl.” [source]
Chad Kelly used to be the QB for the Clemson Tigers, but was thrown off the team after he allegedly threatened to beat up a woman he and a friend hit while driving drunk in a parking lot. He’s currently signed on to play with Ole Miss next year.
