Travis Kelce is one of the most beloved players in Kansas City Chiefs history but didn’t make any friends in his Week 2 performance against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
After the game, Jaguars safety Rayshawn Jenkins had some choice words to say about Kelce, who seemed to have gotten under his skin as Kansas City secured its first win of the 2023 season.
“Of course [Kelce is] a good player, but he’s a little too extra, at times,” Jenkins said in an interview with News4Jax after the Jaguars loss. “He gets to disrespecting, he feels like he’s above people. We’re all men out there, let’s just play the game.”
Whatever Kelce said to Jenkins or other members of Jacksonville’s secondary must have really struck a nerve. The All-Pro tight end was flagged for his conduct on the field in the game and may be wise to tone down his bravado in the Chiefs’ Week 3 matchup against the Chicago Bears this weekend.
