Overview
- The confrontation occurred late in the second quarter after Harrison Butker missed a 40-yard field goal with Kansas City leading 6-0.
- Broadcast footage showed Reid getting in Kelce’s face and appearing to throw a shoulder into him before the tight end walked away.
- Reid downplayed the moment at halftime, telling NBC’s Melissa Stark, "That’s OK. We need some juice."
- Coverage tied the flare-up to the Chiefs’ early-season offensive struggles and Kelce’s limited first-half production as they tried to avoid an 0-3 start.
- This was the latest in a pattern for the pair, who had a similar sideline incident during last season’s Super Bowl.
