“Gotta be a better teammate gotta be a better leader” said Travis Kelce after His Fight with His Teammate
When Travis Kelce caught a touchdown pass from Patrick Mahomes during practice on Saturday, the tension at the Kansas City Chiefs training camp spiked.
The tight end punched his teammate Jack Cochrane after he attempted to steal the ball late. The incident was caught on camera by Nicholas Roesch of Chiefs Wire, and it can be seen that Kelce punched Cochrane in the end zone after completing the catch.
Fight: #Chiefs TE Travis Kelce threw a punch at Jack Cochrane which started a very short scuffle between the two.
Kelce probably felt he was hit late.

Until cornerback Trent McDuffie interfered and put a stop to it, the two players continued to shove and argue.
This was not the first heated altercation Kelce had at the training camp. He got into a fight with a referee the day before, which involved more extracurricular activity than typical during practice.

Additionally, Travis Kelce and CB Dicaprio Bootle had fought, and Bootle also made an attempt to steal the ball after the play finished. They had to be separated by safety Bryan Cook and running back La’Mical Perine.
“Gotta be a better teammate gotta be a better leader… plain and simple,” Kelcetweeted on Saturday.
