Travis Kelce involved in pre-game spat as he throws helmet and kicks ball away

Travis Kelce was seen kicking away a ball and tossing the helmet of Baltimore Ravens kicker Justin Tucker during a pre-game spat. The incident happened before the AFC Championship Game, where he wanted to make sure his Kansas City Chiefs teammate, Patrick Mahomes, could practice properly.

Despite dating pop sensation Taylor Swift, Kelce remains focused on his game. He played brilliantly in the Divisional Round of the NFL playoffs last week, scoring two key touchdowns and leading his team in receiving yards.

The Chiefs won against the Buffalo Bills, securing their place against the top-seeded Ravens. As the big game approached, the atmosphere was heating up.

During warm-ups at M&T Bank Stadium, Kelce wasn’t happy with where Tucker chose to warm up. So, the 34-year-old took action, kicking away Tucker’s ball and throwing his helmet aside to ensure Mahomes could practice effectively.

Kansas City Chiefs have again taken the spotlight in the AFC Championship, marking their sixth consecutive appearance with star player Mahomes playing a significant role each time.

The face-off between Jackson’s Ravens and Mahomes’ Chiefs has already played out on four occasions, with the Chiefs leading the score at 3-1. After earlier losses, Jackson called the AFC West franchise his ‘kryptonite’, but he turned things around, leading his team to an astounding 36-35 win in week 2 of the 2021 season.

Despite that victory, Jackson was dreading facing Mahomes once more. He said ahead of the game: “I don’t like competing with him at all.” Yet, like any true sportsman, he went on to say: “To be a champion, you’ve got to go through a champion.”

Whoever secures the AFC Championship title will face either the Detroit Lions or San Francisco 49ers it’s anyone’s guess who’ll make Super Bowl LVIII.
