Who bet the moneyline on an NFL player being racist before halftime of the Super Bowl? If so, you’re a winner. During the second quarter of Super Bowl LVIII, Travis Kelce got incredibly frustrated with Andy Reid for taking him off the field on a red zone play.
Kansas City Chiefs running back Isaiah Pacheco fumbled the ball on that play in question, and the 49ers recovered it. Kelce felt like he should have been on the field, and as such confronted head coach Andy Reid.
And by "confrontation," I mean that he bumped an unsuspecting Reid and yelled vehemently in his face. OutKick’s Dan Zaksheske correctly said this was ridiculous behavior, especially considering that Kelce’s presence on the field probably wouldn’t have changed the outcome of that play.
After this situation unfolded, Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown tweeted out his perspective on the play. It was self-centered, probably because he’s one of the more self-focused players in the NFL.
