Taylor Swift fans call Travis Kelce walking red flag after Super Bowl LVIII moment
As everyone knows, it was the Super Bowl LVIII on Sunday 11 February 2024, and it basically felt as though every celebrity that you could ever think of was in attendance. Taylor Swift managed to race back from her show in Japan in order to support her man Travis Kelce, and she brought her entire crew with her, Blake Lively and Ice Spice included.
However, despite the Kansas Chiefs’ victorious win, some Swifties were far more concerned about how Kelce acted towards his team’s head coach, Andy Reid, midway through the game.
Tensions were clearly high throughout the entire game and at one point, Kelce became so enraged that he barged into Reid and was seen visibly shouting at the coach:
Following the Chief’s win, both Kelce and Reid addressed the incident in post-game interviews. Kelce stated that Reid was the best coach in the industry and that he owed his “entire career” to him. Reid, also clearly unfazed by the moment of anger, praised Kelce’s abilities and shared his love for the player’s commitment to the team.
Andy Reid says Travis Kelce caught him off balance with his shove, told Reid to put him in and he’d score.

Travis credited Andy not only as play caller but also for helping him learn to manage his emotions. “I owe entire my career to that guy.” pic.twitter.com/d9Lt7pZBle

While Reid and Kelce were happy to forget the moment in question, countless netizens shared their thoughts on the matter, particularly their disappointment in Kelce:
Travis Kelce should be ASHAMED of himself for assaulting Andy Reid like this on NATIONAL TV.

He is a grown man. SHOW SOME RESPECT…

Andy Reid is 100x more the reason they are there than he is, regardless of his recent fandom.

Travis Kelce needs to be humbled quick and realize where he is in the pecking order.

Moreover, a lot of fans felt as though Kelce needed humbling. The NFL star has been receiving a lot of attention recently due to his relationship with Swift and some have begun to feel as though the football player is now receiving special treatment:
Yo Travis Kelce - we don’t care if you are dating Taylor Swift… this isn’t cool. You don’t yell at coach Andy Reid #SuperBowl pic.twitter.com/ani8fZoR2k

Travis Kelce is clearly unhinged and has an inflated ego. Look at him bucking up to and shoving Kansas City Chiefs coach Andy Reid. Talk about poor sportsmanship. I guess he feels empowered now, especially since he’s with Taylor Swift. 🤔 pic.twitter.com/lJJMlP60SA

Let’s just say that the Swifties also made it known that the Grammy-award-winning singer should consider the entire Reid debacle a massive red flag:
And just like that I’m suddenly less excited about Travis Kelce. You don’t get to ape up someone all aggressive like just because you’re frustrated.

Taylor, my darling, my dove, my lamb, this is a big red flag. pic.twitter.com/uaggVrGjnI
It's weird to me that this moment has become a meme. All I see is a grown man who aggressively and extremely unprofessionally unleashed his anger at his coach on live TV. Red flags galore, but we're all just laughing it off for some reason. #TravisKelce pic.twitter.com/YAMH5XvkxG
