It was perhaps the most heated moment of Super Bowl LVIII, and it was seen round the world, Travis Kelce screaming in head coach Andy Reid’s face.
But what exactly did the tight end tell his coach? Kelce has declined to say, but thankfully a lip reader has come to the rescue with their interpretation of the heated moment.
During the second quarter of the big game, Kelce was caught on camera taking his frustrations out on his head coach.
The Chiefs tight end ran up to Reid, grabbed his arm, and yelled in his face.
While Kelce declined to reveal what he said, “You guys saw that? I’m going to keep it between us unless my mic’d up tells the world,” later joking he was simply telling his coach he loved him, lip readers have come to the rescue.
According to MailOnline, lip readers determined Kelce shouted “Keep me in. You f****r! I’m calm now!”
Does Kelce look calm to you?

Although the inappropriate interaction looked serious, Reid was able to joke about it during the post-game.
“He keeps me young,” Reid said of Kelce. “He tested that hip out. He caught me off balance – normally, I’d give him a little bit, but I didn’t have any feet under me.”
That was completely inappropriate! I don’t care if Andy Reid was able to joke about it afterwards, no one should treat another person like that.
