The Super Bowl 2024 took a dramatic turn after the Kansas City Chiefs’ Travis Kelce yelled and pushed head coach, Andy Ried, during Sunday’s second quarter LVIII vs the San Francisco 49ers. The video of the heated exchange took over the internet on Monday, getting fan reactions.
It all began when Kelce missed a place in the second quarter. In the viral video, Kelce, out of frustration, can be seen throwing away his helmet and screaming at Reid from the sidelines. Following the altercation, Jerick McKinnon intervened and separated the player and the old coach.

The video has left NFL fans surprised. While a section of social media users is backing Kelce, others slammed him for his ‘unprofessional’ behaviour and some also dragged his girlfriend Taylor Swift into the controversy.
Reacting to the video, a user wrote, “Can’t see America’s Sweetheart putting up with him for too long.” Another user commented, “They already lost. People who can’t control themselves – that energy bleeds. People lose focus. Unprofessional.”
“It’s the biggest game of the year it’s a contact sport he’s passionate about helping the team – just sucks that when someone black does it they are divas. I don’t see nothing wrong, get him the rock Andy,” a fan supported Travis Kelce.
Meanwhile, the Kansas City Chiefs defeated the San Francisco 49ers by 25-22. This is the third win of the Chiefs in the last five years.
