Football fans are destroying Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce after a viral video showed him trying to start physical altercations with Philadelphia Eagles players in Super Bowl 59.
Travis Kelce and the defending champions were no match for the Eagles, who denied Kansas City of a three-peat with a dominant 40-22 win in Super Bowl 59. Kelce was held to just four catches for 39 yards in the loss.
A highlight reel has gone viral of a frustrated Kelce getting into it with Eagles stars C.J. Gardner-Johnson, Jalen Carter and Jordan Davis. Kelce appears to be trying to start a physical confrontation of some sort, but nobody bites:
Football fans wasted no time teeing off on Travis Kelce for his “dirty” tactics on Sunday:
“Of course he did, he’s Dirty Kelce. That’s what got him his nickname lol,” one fan said.
“Kelce looking to instigate and do one of his Oscar flop performances,” said another.
“Travis: how dare you tackle me. ref!,” joked a user.
“Kelce probably can’t even fight,” quipped one fan.
“Kelce and Mahomes getting punked physically was epic,” wrote another.
“That was his only contribution to the team…instigate and get the opposing team penalized. Good thing Eagles watched tape,” said a fan.
Kelce had a down year in 2024 that saw him catch 97 passes for 823 yards and three touchdowns. The latter two stats marked Kelce’s lowest totals since he became a regular starter in 2014.
Travis Kelce May Have Played His Final NFL Game
Before the Super Bowl, it was reported that Kelce had yet to make a decision on his playing future. The 35-year-old star signed a two-year contract extension last April worth $34.25 million.
Nobody could blame Kelce if he decided to walk away after a Hall of Fame career headlined by three championship rings. Then again, it’s hard to envision a fiery competitor like him walking away after a crushing loss on the grand stage.
