Travis Kelce and Andy Reid clashed again during the Chiefs' latest game, similar to their Super Bowl LVIII confrontation.

Travis Kelce, for his part, fired back with sharp retorts and refused to back down until Reid eventually walked away.

Tensions flared on the Kansas City Chiefs' sideline during their matchup against the New York Giants when head coach Andy Reid and star tight end Travis Kelce were caught in a fiery exchange.
The incident, which has since gone viral, came after Harrison Butker missed a 40-yard field goal late in the second quarter as the Chiefs led 6-0.
Kelce could be seen walking toward Reid, with the latter shouting loudly at him and even bumping into him, while Kelce fired back with quick retorts.
After the game, Reid hinted at what the controversy was about while also assuring fans that it wasn't something they should worry about.
"I love Travis' passion," Reid told the press. "I'm OK with that. We didn't have enough of it in that second quarter. It wasn't where we needed it to be. He knows when to back off the pedal, and he knows when to push it too. That's the part I love about him.
He added, "That guy's all in. Just sometimes, I have to be the policeman. He's all in. He's an emotional guy. He's Irish."
Netizens Share Mixed Reactions Over Travis Kelce And Andy Reid's Clash

Online, netizens had varied reactions to the clash between Kelce and Reid. Some claimed that Kelce was underperforming and praised Reid for confronting him.
One user commented, "Sorry, Travis. Andy doesn't care that you're f-cking Taylor Swift. You're nothing more than an underperforming, overrated tight end to him."
A second individual remarked, "T.K. needs to retire! He needs to stop pouting like a child, making himself look stupid!"
A third wrote, "Kelce sucked last night, and you can tell Andy Reid is tired of Travis and Swift upstaging the team! She will he his ruination !"
One other individual placed the blame for the outburst on Reid, arguing that he was calling ineffective Wplays.
"I honestly think it's because of what plays are being called. Travis isn't the only one who seems upset," the netizen said.
Some Taylor Swift Fans Express Worry About Travis Kelce's 'Anger Management'

Kelce's latest outburst also drew attention from some fans of the tight end's girlfriend, Taylor Swift, with many addressing his alleged "anger" issues.
A popular sports account on X even did a compilation of Kelce's angry moments after his recent clash with Coach Reid.
One person wrote, "Can't wait til she makes an anger management song about him."

Another said, "Every Travis Kelce' anger management highlight' looks the same: Ref tosses a flag → Kelce screams → helmet comes off → Taylor Swift somewhere in the stands writing lyrics about it."
"TravisKelce has genuine anger management issues. Taylor Swift should be careful," a third noted on an older clip of Kelce.
Travis Kelce And Andy Reid Had A Similar Confrontation At Super Bowl LVIII

Kelce's heated sideline exchange with Reid seemed reminiscent of the duo's confrontation during Super Bowl LVIII.
At the time, Reid had taken Kelce out in the first half, a move that angered the tight end so much that he walked up to the coach and pushed him, causing Reid to momentarily lose his balance, while Kelce continued shouting in his face.
The exchange was eventually stopped by teammate Jerick McKinnon, who pulled Kelce away from Reid.
In the wake of the game, Reid brushed off the incident, much like he did after their recent confrontation.
However, Kelce later admitted on his "New Heights" podcast, alongside his brother Jason, that his reaction was actually over the top.
"I can't get that fired up to the point where bumping Coach and it's getting him off balance and stuff," he said at the time, per CNN. "When he stumbled, I was like: 'Aw, sh-t' in my head.'"
Travis Kelce Was Fined For An Obscene Gesture

While Kelce's confrontations with Reid don't appear to have carried any in-house consequences, his unsportsmanlike conduct during the Chiefs' September 14 home game against the Philadelphia Eagles did draw enough scrutiny to result in a fine.
During the game, Kelce completed a 23-yard reception from quarterback Patrick Mahomes and then celebrated by making a crude gesture toward his nether region while facing the Eagles' sideline.
The 35-year-old also pulled off his helmet and slammed it to the ground in a moment of frustration during the second quarter.
While officials on the field did not penalize Kelce, he was fined a whopping $14,491 after the NFL's standard review process for conduct and taunting violations. He is allowed to appeal the fine, but it remains unclear if he would do so.
