What Happened Between Travis Kelce & Coach Andy Reid At Super Bowl 2024?
According to a source who spoke to Page Six, tight end Travis Kelce of the Kansas City Chiefs didn’t mean anything when he yelled at head coach Andy Reid during the team’s Super Bowl triumph over the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday; it was just a display of the player’s competitive spirit.

After the Chiefs lost a fumble in the second quarter of their exciting, dramatic overtime victory over San Francisco, Kelce was visibly upset and irritated.

However, Kelce will allow any potential audio snippets from his microphone to determine whether or not that eventuality occurs.
“You guys saw that?” Kelce said, according to the Associated Press. “I’m going to keep it between us unless my mic’d up tells the world. I was just telling him how much I loved him.”
In the second quarter of the Chiefs’ eventual 25-22 overtime victory, Kelce seemed to lose it. He shouted in Reid’s face from the sidelines and even touched the head coach.

Just one snap after quarterback Patrick Mahomes connected with wide receiver Mecole Hardman on a 52-yard pass, giving the Chiefs a first-and-goal, running back Isiah Pacheco fumbled possession back to the 49ers.
“He caught me off balance,” Reid told reporters, according to ESPN. “I wasn’t watching. He was really coming over [and saying], ‘Just put me in, I’ll score. I’ll score.’ So, that’s really what it was. I love that. It’s not the first time. I appreciate him. The part I love is he loves to play the game and he wants to help his team win. It’s not a selfish thing. That’s not what it is. I understand that.
“As much as he bumps into me, I get after him and we understand that. He just caught me off balance.”

Later, when Reid and his wife Tammy were interviewed by CBS after the game, they laughed off the heated exchange.
“He keeps me young,” Reid joked of Kelce. “He tested that hip out. He caught me off balance – normally, I’d give him a little bit, but I didn’t have any feet under me.”
During his post-game news conference, Reid revealed how the coach has assisted him in managing his emotions while playing, and Kelce commended the coach for that as well.
