Travis Kelce and Justin Tucker got involved in some drama before the AFC Championship Game. While the Kansas City Chiefs won the game and are heading to Super Bowl LVIII, the All-Pro tight end continues to discuss the conflict with the Baltimore Ravens placekicker.
This time, he shared his thoughts with his older brother, Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce, in a recent episode of New Heights. The two-time Super Bowl champion said:
"If you wanna be a f***ing dick about it, you keep your helmet, and your football and your f***ing kicking tee right where the quarterbacks are warming up. … Don’t paint me as the bad guy. He was poking the bear."
Some football fans believe it would be better for him to let the issue go. Instead, reliving the incident had this NFL follower saying:
“Naw dude you’re a bully”
Another football fanatic commented:
“Seriously dude...you were taunting all thru the game, and Tucker is one of the nicest and coolest guys and very well liked in the NFL! Be humble and stop with the drama now!”
Here are other reactions to Travis Kelce adding fuel to the flame against Justin Tucker.
Travis Kelce doubled down on the incident in his recent appearance on The Pat McAfee Show. After Patrick Mahomes briefly appeared on screen, McAfee jested the quarterback, saying that Justin Tucker would have beat him.
Kelce mentioned that if Tucker had missed his fourth-quarter field goal attempt, he and Mahomes would have been penalized for taunting after sprinting onto the field.
While Tucker has been warming up at the opposing team’s end zone for years, Kelce was unhappy with where he had placed his helmet as it could have injured Mahomes when he was practicing his dropbacks.
Travis Kelce’s response makes more fans root for the 49ers
The feud with Tucker makes it easier for NFL fans to support the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl LVIII. Aside from Kelce not letting this issue go, the Chiefs have won two of the last four Super Bowl titles, including last season’s title game versus the Philadelphia Eagles.
Some fans also love Brock Purdy’s underdog story as the final pick of the 2022 NFL Draft. The 49ers are two-point favorites based on the latest odds by significant sportsbooks.
Finally, some fans hope for a 49ers victory because Travis Kelce is associated with Taylor Swift, and she allegedly gets excessive attention during games. That dynamic has some NFL supporters hoping the Chiefs won’t win it all on Feb. 11 in Las Vegas.
