Travis Kelce faces punishment from NFL
Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has solidified his legacy as one of the most dominant and accomplished players in NFL history at his position. Yet, he’s also no stranger to drawing the occasional unsportsmanlike conduct penalty, as he did just last month.
During the Chiefs’ Christmas Day matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Kelce etched his name in the franchise’s record books by breaking Tony Gonzalez’s long-standing record for touchdown receptions. However, his celebratory antics led to some unexpected consequences.
After the historic touchdown, Kelce celebrated by dunking the ball over the crossbar — a move that earned him an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty.
But that was certainly not the only punishment he received for his antics.
According to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, Kelce was fined $14,069 for violating league rules by using a prop during his touchdown celebration.
“The NFL fined #Chiefs TE Travis Kelce $14,069 for unsportsmanlike conduct (use of prop) — dunking over the crossbar on Christmas in tribute to Tony Gonzalez after breaking his franchise TD record,” Pelissero shared in a post on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter.
“Gonzalez posted he’ll help with the fine,” Pelissero added.
With the Chiefs securing the No. 1 overall seed, Kelce now shifts his focus to the postseason, where the team is chasing history.
As Kansas City aims for an unprecedented third consecutive Super Bowl title, all eyes will be on Kelce and his teammates to see if they can pull it off.
We’ll have to wait and see if they succeed.
