Emotions are obviously running high in Sunday’s Super Bowl LVIII showdown between the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers. It has been a low-scoring game thus far, with the Niners holding a precarious 3-0 lead at the mid-way point of the second quarter.
The Chiefs had a tremendous opportunity to score the first touchdown of the game early in the quarter. They fumbled the ball near the endzone, though, which led to a costly turnover.
Let’s just say that Kansas City star Travis Kelce was not pleased with the play.
Super Bowl LVIII: Travis Kelce Screams at Coach Andy Reid on Sidelines
For starters, here’s the play that cost Kansas City a touchdown:

Shortly after the botched play, a clip of Kelce charging coach Andy Reid on the sidelines has been making its rounds on social media. The four-time All-Pro tight end clearly wasn’t happy with what had just gone down and he decided to let his coach know about it:
Travis Kelce was PISSED that he got taken out of the game for the Isiah Pacheco fumble.

Reid decided to take Kelce out of the game right before Isiah Pacheco fumbled the ball at the 8-yard line. Kelce clearly wanted to remain in the game and he did not hesitate in letting his coach know about it.
To be fair, it did not look like Kelce shoved his 62-year-old coach. It was more of his momentum forcing Reid to stumble a bit. Nevertheless, there’s no denying that Kelce was pissed and that he was screaming at his coach.
