Furious Travis Kelce shoves Chiefs coach Andy Reid and throws his helmet in shocking Super Bowl
Travis Kelce was furious with head coach Andy Reid after the Chiefs lost a golden opportunity to score in the second quarter. Kansas City had begun in their own half and a deep throw by Patrick Mahomes had gone them into the red-zone. From there the least they would have expected would have been a game-tying field goal.
Instead, Isiah Pacheco was handed the ball on the first down and as he was trying to get some extra yards, he was stripped and the ball landed up in the hands of the San Francisco 49ers. It was a frustrating end to that play and as the offense came out Travis Kelce was boiling.
Ball is loose. Deommodore Lenoir knocks the ball out and the @49ers defense forces a turnover!

He clearly felt that he was not being given enough opportunity and trust by his head coach and might have thought that a pass play at the time would have been better. Instead, he had been take out for that play and was not having it. The tight end shoved his coach that nearly took Andy Reid off his feet and was seen screaming.
