Travis Kelce‘s meltdown moment on the sidelines to coach Andy Reid was one of the main distractions from their sensational Super Bowl win last night.
But what infuriated the player and what he said to the Kansas City coach as he manhandled him and sent him off balance was unlcear.
Now DailyMail.com can reveal that the tight end shouted, ‘Keep me in. You f****r! I’m calm now!’ – after lip readers decoded the pair’s viral exchange.
Kelce, 34, erupted in anger during Sunday’s match after his teammates fumbled a pass made by quarterback Patrick Mahomes.
He then body bumped Reid, causing him to momentarily lose his balance, grabbed his arm and began shouting at him – as his pop star girlfriend Taylor Swift watched from the $1million family suite at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.
His teammate Jerrod McKinnon pulled Kelce away from the 65-year-old coach, ending the heated altercation.
Kelce, refusing to discuss the incident in detail, said in the aftermath of the team’s victory that his rage was down to the fact that he ‘wanted the score to be different’ and that Reid is ‘one of the best leaders of men I’ve ever seen in my life.’

Kelce was apparently unhappy about not being on the field when Isiah Pacheco fumbled the ball with the Chiefs eight yards out looking for their first touchdown.
Approaching from the side, cameras caught Kelce storming towards Reid and bumping into him, causing him to temporarily lose his footing. The pair’s interaction set off a social media firestorm as viewers speculated about what was said.
But Kelce, speaking to reporters after the Chiefs’ dramatic 25-22 win, refused to share. He said: ‘You guys saw that?
‘I’m going to keep it between us unless my mic’d up tells the world. I was just telling him how much I loved him.’
Although he didn’t publicly apologize for the altercation, Kelce had nothing but praise for his long-term coach and dedicated their Super Bowl comeback win to him after the game.
He told ESPN SportsCenter after the win: ‘Man, I was fired up — I was fired up that we weren’t hitting on all cylinders.
