Travis Kelce and Patrick mahomes in Trouble ‘ Coach Reid disappointed but fans believe it’s not entirely their fault

But when the 49ers were ahead at half-time, it seemed as if Kelce’s night would be defined by his bust-up with Reid as the tight-end exploded at the Chiefs coach towards the end of the second quarter.

The Chiefs were down 3-0 when the team lost the ball close to the 49ers end zone, and Kelce was furious with Reid after the coach opted to take him out of the play.Kelce stormed up to Reid and barged into the 65-year-old coach while shouting into his face. Reid was briefly knocked off balance and turned away from Kelce as his player continued to yell in anger.Kelce had to be pulled away by a team-mate and he was led to the sideline to cool off, where the 34-year-old whacked his helmet against a bench in rage. After half-time, Kelce was one of the players of the game and finished with 93 receiving yards, but when the incident occurred he had been limited to just one yard by the 49ers defence.

Kelce, who shared a kiss on the pitch with Swift during the Chiefs’ celebrations, played down the incident afterwards. “Man, I was fired up — I was fired up that we weren’t hitting on all cylinders,” he told ESPN.

“I had to give ‘Big Red’ a love tap and let him know that we were all here fighting for him no matter what. I just had to tell him I loved him real quick.

“I put so much trust in him and how he goes about being a head coach, as a leader — he’s one of the best leaders in the game.

“I can’t thank him enough for giving me opportunities year in, year out. This third one, this second one back-to-back, this one’s for him, no doubt.”

Talking to reporters Kelce added: “I’ve got the greatest coach this game has ever seen.
