Travis Kelce: My Behavior Was ‘Unacceptable’ at Super Bowl

🏈Travis Kelce admitted that yelling and bumping into Kansas City Chiefs Head Coach 🏈Andy Reid was “unacceptable.”

Kelce, tight end for the Chiefs, spoke about the incident that took place Sunday at 🏈Super Bowl LVIII during his podcast “New Heights” with his brother 🏈Jason Kelce Wednesday.

🏈Travis Kelce admitted his emotions got the best of him. However, older brother 🏈Jason Kelce, who plays center for the Philadelphia Eagles, pushed him to say more, ESPN reported.

🏈Jason Kelce said to his brother, “You crossed the line; I think we can both agree on it.”

“I did,” 🏈Travis Kelce agreed. “I can’t get that fired up to that point where I’m bumping Coach and it’s getting him off balance and stuff.”

The Chiefs beat the San Francisco 49ers in a 25-22 overtime victory.

He explained how he could get so emotional with Reid.

“I got a certain relationship with him. He’s checked me a few times and I just wanted to let him know that I wanted this thing, and he can put it on me, and I got him.,” 🏈Travis Kelce said. “You know, it just came in a moment where we weren’t playing very well, I wasn’t playing well, and we had to get some s— going and sometimes … emotions get away from me and that’s been the battle of my career.”

Afterwords, the two “chuckled about it,” 🏈Travis Kelce said.

He added he was grateful being a Chief and his relationship with Reid.

“I couldn’t be, you know, more proud of being his product on the field, and I couldn’t be more proud of, you know, where we’ve come as a team since I got here in 2013, and I just love playing for the guy, man,” 🏈Travis Kelce said. ”Unfortunately, my passion comes out where it looks like it’s negativity, but I’m grateful he knows I want to win this thing with him more than anything.”

🏈Travis Kelce immediately regretted his actions and added Reid’s reaction afterward surprised him.

“Coach Reid actually came right up to me after that and didn’t even have harsh words for me. I was ready to get a f—ing ass-chewing and for him to just tell me to ‘f—ing be better,’ and he just let (me) know, ‘Hey man, I love your passion. I got cameras on me all over the place man, you don’t want things to come off’ … and it just made me … fired up to get a f—ing victory for him, man. Cause that’s how much I love that dude, man. So Big Red, sorry if I caught you with that cheap shot, baby,” he said.

After the game, Reid told 🏈Travis Kelce he appreciated his passion and said the contact wasn’t as bad as it looked.

🏈Jason Kelce told his younger brother he needs to have his “head on a swivel” because Reid will be “coming hot” after him next time.

“I know it. If he would have cold-cocked me in the face, I would have just ate it and said, yeah, let’s f—ing go,” 🏈Travis Kelce said.
