Kelce dropped a goal line pass in Kansas City\u2019s defeat that may have turned the tides in the low-scoring affair. However, it ended up getting picked and setting up an Eagles touchdown in the early-season\u00a0Super Bowl\u00a0rematch.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
If there\u2019s any silver lining, Travis\u2019\u00a0fine\u00a0is nothing he (or his fianc\u00e9e) can\u2019t afford. But it can\u2019t feel good to have to hand over any money that you don\u2019t have to \u2014 especially after an 0-2 start.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

[US, Mexico & Canada customers only] Sep 5, 2025; Sao Paulo, BRAZIL; Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce (87) looks on against the Los Angeles Chargers in the second half during a NFL game at Corinthians Arena. Mandatory Credit: Amanda Perobelli\/Reuters via Imagn Images<\/em><\/p>\nPer the\u00a0NFL\u00a0Network\u2019s Tom Pelissero, \u201cThe NFL fined Chiefs TE Travis Kelce $14,491 for unsportsmanlike conduct\/obscene gestures last week.\u201d Adding, \u201cThe gesture was \u2026 well, you can figure it out,\u201d alongside a clip of Kelce\u2019s third quarter catch.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
The league has made a point of really coming down on players for their\u00a0on-field conduct\u00a0when it comes to celebrations and this is just further confirmation of that.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Kelce was clearly gesturing towards his private area after hauling in the pass and stiff-arming a Philly defender on the way to a big first down. And while it seems relatively benign to some fans,\u00a0Roger Goodell\u00a0and the NFL\u2019s decision-makers clearly feel differently.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\u201cBut slapping\/hitting a player is only $12k got it. F\u2014k the NFL,\u201d a fan said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
\u201cFined for this is crazy but he needs to remember that he has a wedding to pay pls,\u201d a Swiftie posted.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
\u201cThe gesture was goofy AF but I still think the league is over fining players for nonsense,\u201d another person admitted.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
\u201coh so this is worse than trying to premeditatedly and maliciously inflict head trauma on\u00a0national tv\u00a0after the play is over, got it, thanks.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
