Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce revealed that he was quite miffed with the Cleveland Browns over the hit that knocked Patrick Mahomes out of Sunday’s game.
Mahomes took a hit to the back of the head that put him in the concussion protocol in Sunday’s AFC divisional round game. After the game, Kelce said he had words with some of the Browns due to their reaction to the hit.
Kelce downplays it, but it’s easy to understand his initial reaction to what the Browns allegedly said given how shaken up Mahomes was. The hit wasn’t particularly dirty, and it may have been that the Browns didn’t even realize how much Mahomes was struggling initially, but everything was heightened in the heat of the moment.
Coincidentally, it’s the Browns, not the Chiefs, who have reason to feel robbed over an illegal hit that went unpunished.
