It was a fun and frolic Super Bowl, and Kelce has dominated the headlines for obvious reasons.

Obviously, questions were bound to be raised about his conduct. Does he approve of it or not? He revealed his thought process about the entire incident.

During their “New Heights” podcast episode on February 14, Travis’ brother Jason Kelce brought up the incident, noting how it caught Coach Reid off-guard.

Kelce yells at his head coach

As the Chiefs faced the 49ers, tensions ran high on the field. The incident occurred after a critical fumble by running back Isiah Pacheco, which could have shifted the game’s momentum in favor of the Chiefs. Travis Kelce, who was not directly involved in the play, expressed his frustration by approaching head coach Andy Reid. In a clip shared on Inside the NFL, Kelce’s outburst was evident as he grabbed Reid’s left arm and bumped into him while yelling.

Taken aback by the sudden confrontation, Reid appeared to stumble momentarily before regaining his composure. Teammate Jerick McKinnon intervened, guiding Kelce away from the coach as emotions continued to flare.

Ried, in a post-game-presser, addressed this as well. He said that there were no ‘hard feelings’ between them. But what do you think? Were Kelce’s actions justified? Or should he have been chastised for them?
