Will fans hear audio of Travis Kelce-Andy Reid Super Bowl confrontation?

It appears curious NFL fans may never know exactly what Kansas City Chiefs All-Pro tight end Travis Kelce yelled as he "bumped" head coach Andy Reid in the second quarter of Super Bowl LVIII. 

Ryan Glasspiegel of the New York Post reported on Tuesday that "two people highly plugged into the sports media business told The Post that they suspect the Chiefs blocked NFL Films — which captures the Mic’d Up audio — and "Inside the NFL" from airing the direct Kelce sound bite, with one saying he thought that this edict came from Reid." 

Specifically, the Super Bowl LVIII edition of the "Inside the NFL" program featured audio from the CBS broadcast during the highlight of what became one of the most discussed moments from Kansas City's thrilling 25-22 overtime win over the San Francisco 49ers on Feb. 11. 

An "Inside the NFL" representative declined to comment for Glasspiegel's piece. Individuals associated with the Chiefs and NFL Media/NFL Films hadn't responded to requests for comments by the time The Post ran its story. 

Neither Kelce nor Reid has yet revealed what the 34-year-old said, but it's assumed the star offensive weapon was upset about the fact he wasn't on the field when Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco lost a fumble in the red zone. 

On an episode of his "New Heights" podcast released following Kansas City's Super Bowl victory, Kelce expressed remorse for his actions but also insisted that he and Reid "kind of chuckled about" the matter after the fact. 

Reid turns 66 years old in March. Both he and Kelce are expected to return for another season as the Chiefs attempt to become the first franchise to ever win a third consecutive Super Bowl title. 

Glasspiegel noted that "there exists a clear understanding that the teams effectively have veto power over what makes it to air via the threat of restricting future access" regarding shows such as "Inside the NFL" and HBO's "Hard Knocks." 

Still, it's interesting that the Chiefs may or may not have blocked this particular audio clip from reaching the airwaves considering Andrew Crane of The Post shared last week that a lip reader determined that a fired-up Kelce merely said the word [expletive] when emotions were high.
