Mala sangre

Travis Kelce se burló de Justin Tucker por su altercado antes del partido del Campeonato de la AFC, criticando al pateador de los Baltimore Ravens por actuar como un "m***ito i***" y meterse a propósito en el camino de Patrick Mahomes durante el calentamiento.

Ambas partes han seguido reviviendo el viral episodio esta semana, con Tucker, Mahomes y ahora Kelce hablando sobre ella.

Travis no se contuvo al discutir la disputa en su podcast "New Heights" con su hermano Jason el miércoles, diciendo que podía decir que Tucker estaba bromeando, pero los Chiefs no estaban de humor para payasadas.

Kelce explicó que hay una regla no escrita cuando se trata de especialistas: se aseguran de mantenerse fuera del camino de sus oponentes cuando se preparan para un enfrentamiento. Pero Tucker no lo hizo y causó molestia.

"Si quieres ser un jodido imbécil al respecto, toma tu casco, tu balón y tu jodida camiseta de pateador justo donde los quarterbacks calientan", dijo Kelce.

"Si no vas a recoger eso, con gusto lo moveré por ti".

Por supuesto, Kelce demostró ser un hombre de palabra, pues tomó el casco de Tucker y lo lanzó lejos de Mahomes el domingo.

Kelce se disculpó por sus acciones y admitió que Tucker le guiñó un ojo durante el altercado para indicar que solo estaba jugando, pero reiteró que no estaba de humor para bromear.

"Si vas a ser un d*** te prometo que puedo superarte cada vez".

A pesar de las idas y venidas, Kelce elogió a Tucker como uno de los mejores, pero dejó claro que más le vale no volver a dirigirse así a sus compañeros de equipo.

Travis Kelce Thanks For Joining Chiefs Kingdom, Taylor Swift!!!

WELCOME TO THE FAM
New Heights / Wave Sports + Entertainment

Taylor Swift got a special shoutout from her boo on Wednesday ... with Travis Kelce giving a playful "thank you" to the pop superstar for jumping on the Chiefs bandwagon just in time for their Super Bowl run.

The "Cruel Summer" crooner has been Kelce's biggest supporter since they first started dating last year ... making numerous appearances at home and away matchups, including every game during the Chiefs' current playoff run.

The love hasn't gone unnoticed in the Kelce fam ... with Jason Kelce jokingly congratulating Swift on reaching the biggest sporting event of the year so early in her fandom.

"Shout out to the newest members of the Chiefs Kingdom," Jason said on the 'New Heights' podcast. "Taylor Swift who has officially reached the Super Bowl in her rookie year."

Travis played along ... adding, "Shout out to Tay! Thanks for joining the team!"

Of course, the Swifties have followed in her footsteps ... tuning in to every Chiefs game to get a glimpse of "mother" catching games from her usual suite seats.

The Traylor craze has left a huge impact on Kelce's jersey sales and TV ratings ... further solidifying the defending Super Bowl champs as the must-see game every week.

Worth noting -- Swift used to show love for her Philadelphia Eagles ... something Travis mentioned when addressing the musician's interaction with his head coach Andy Reid after Sunday's AFC Championship Game.

As previously reported, Swift is planning to jet from her 'Eras' tour gig overseas to get to Vegas in time for Travis' big night ... and we're sure the broadcast will be sure to make her presence known.

Travis Kelce Hey Justin Tucker ... Don't Be a 'F***ing D***!!!'

BAD BLOOD

Travis Kelce just teed off on Justin Tucker over their pregame altercation at the AFC Championship ... calling out the Baltimore Ravens kicker for acting like a "f***ing d***" and purposely getting in Patrick Mahomes' way during warmups.

Both sides of the tiff have continued to breathe life into the viral moment this week ... with Tucker, Mahomes and now Kelce weighing in on it.

Travis didn't hold back when discussing the spat on his "New Heights" podcast with his brother, Jason, on Wednesday ... saying he could tell Tucker was playing around, but the Chiefs weren't in the mood for tomfoolery.

Kelce explained there's an unwritten rule when it comes to specialists -- they make sure to stay out of their opponents' way when prepping for a matchup. But, Tucker didn't do that ... which rubbed him the wrong way.

"If you want to be a f***ing d*** about it, you keep your helmet and your football and your f***ing kicking tee right where the quarterbacks are warming up and they’re dropping, eyes are looking left and they’ve got a helmet down by their feet," Kelce said.

"If you’re not going to pick that up, I’ll happily move that for you."

Of course, Kelce proved to be a man of his word ... taking Tucker's helmet and tossing it away from Mahomes on Sunday.

Kelce apologized for his actions ... admitting Tucker winked at him during the altercation to indicate he was just messing around, but reiterated he was not in a joking mood.

"If you're gonna be a d*** I promise you, I can one-up you every time."

Despite the back-and-forth, Kelce praised Tucker as one of the best to ever do it ... but made it clear he better not come at his teammates like that again.

Muertes de hinchas de los Chiefs Nuevo video de un hombre esposado en ropa interior...

Esposado por la policía

El video de un hombre esposado en ropa interior luego de que la policía descubriera tres cuerpos en su patio trasero acaba de hacerse público, y es solo el último desarrollo de este salvaje caso en Missouri.

Probablemente han oído hablar de esta historia, todo tiene que ver con un hombre llamado Jordan Willis de Kansas City, que fue anfitrión de una fiesta de los Chiefs con algunos amigos en su casa a principios de enero, y que terminó con 3 de ellos muertos en su propiedad días más tarde.

La historia es absolutamente descabellada y todavía encierra muchos misterios. Esto es lo que la policía sabe con certeza: en algún momento después de la fiesta del 7 de enero, las familias de 3 de los asistentes a la reunión (David Harrington, Ricky Johnson y Clayton McGeeney) denunciaron su desaparición, ya que nadie había visto ni oído hablar de ellos después de esa noche.

La gente trató de contactar al propio Willis, pero este también estuvo fuera del radar durante un par de días hasta que los oficiales llegaron a su casa el 9 de enero. Al parecer abrió la puerta con una copa de vino en la mano y vistiendo nada más que calzoncillos.

Y eso es exactamente lo que se ve en este nuevo video, que acaba de aparecer por cortesía del reportero Alex Caprariello, de NewsNation, fruto de su reporteo.

En el clip se puede ver a un vecino grabando a la policía camino a la casa de Willis y luego el momento en que lo detienen.

Y sí, está en ropa interior, tal como habían indicado los informes desde el principio.

Vale la pena señala que aunque Willis podría haber terminado esposado en el momento, luego de que los agentes descubrieran los cuerpos congeladosde Harrington, Johnson y McGeeney, en el patio trasero de Willis, NO fue arrestado o acusado de un delito, y no lo ha sido hasta el momento.

La policía dice que no hay sospecha de crimen violento hasta el momento e incluso están diciendo a su manera que no lo están considerando como un homicidio, a pesar de algunos detalles preocupantes que tienen al público tomándose la cabeza.

Willis, por su parte, ha negado cualquier conocimiento acerca de cómo sus amigos aparecieron muertos en su patio trasero y dice que ni siquiera era consciente de que alguien los estaba buscando. Ha negado tener cualquier relación con su muerte, a pesar de la indignación colectiva de las familias.

Chiefs Fans' Mystery Death Case Video of Man Cuffed in Underwear ... Bodies Found in Backyard

Published | Updated
013024-jordan-willis-v2-kal
CUFFED BY COPS

Video of a man being handcuffed in his underwear as police discovered three dead bodies in his backyard is finally surfacing -- the latest development in this wild case out of Missouri.

You've probably heard of this by now -- it all has to do with this guy named Jordan Willis in Kansas City, who was hosting a Chiefs watch party at his house back in early January with some friends ... only for 3 of them to turn up as stiff corpses on his property days later.

The story is absolutely insane ... and it's still shrouded in mystery. Here's what cops know for sure though -- at some point after the watch party on Jan. 7, families for 3 of the attendees at Willis' get-together (David Harrington, Ricky Johnson, and Clayton McGeeney) reported them missing ... as no one had seen or heard from these men after that evening.

People had attempted to contact Willis himself, of course, but he too was off the radar for a couple days -- that is, until officers arrived at his home on Jan. 9 ... where he reportedly answered the door with a wineglass in hand ... and wearing nothing but tighty-whities.

That's exactly what you're seeing in this new video here, which just popped up courtesy of NewsNation reporter Alex Caprariello, who says he obtained it through his reporting.

In the brief clip ... you can see a neighbor recording the police run-in Willis experienced that night -- capturing all the officers who responded to the scene ... and them detaining Willis.

And yes, he indeed in his underwear ... just as reports have indicated from the get-go.

It's worth noting, while Willis might've landed in handcuffs here in the moment -- after which officers discovered the bodies of Harrington, Johnson and McGeeney, frozen to death in Willis' backyard -- he did NOT get arrested or charged with a crime ... and hasn't as of yet.

Police there are saying no foul play is suspected thus far in the investigation -- and they're even going out of their way to say this is not being looked into as a homicide ... despite some troubling details that have the public doing double takes and scratching their heads.

Willis, for his part, has denied any knowledge about how his friends turned up dead in his backyard ... and says he wasn't even aware anyone was looking for them. He's denied having anything to do with their demise ... this despite the families' collective outrage.

There's still a lot to figure out ... including what else, if anything, may have resulted in the bizarre deaths of these guys. For now, cops aren't pointing the finger at anyone in particular.

Patrick Mahomes Tucker Was Trying To Get Under Skin ... With Pregame Incident

Published
0130-patrick-mahomes--audio-2
THE BEEF EXPLAINED

Patrick Mahomes believes Justin Tucker being all up in his space before the AFC Championship Game was no accident ... claiming the Ravens kicker's pregame run-in was an attempt to get under the Chiefs' skin.

The incident was all the talk before kickoff on Sunday ... with Mahomes and Travis Kelce getting into it with the veteran NFL kicker over his spot on the field while both sides were trying to warm up for the big playoff game.

Tucker downplayed the incident on Monday ... calling the whole thing "silly," but Mahomes clearly doesn't see it that way -- accusing the All-Pro specialist of going out of his way to play some mind games on the defending Super Bowl champions.

"He does that little stuff, I think to try to get under our skin," Mahomes said Tuesday on The Drive on Audacy's 610 Sports Radio. "I asked him to move his stuff. He got up and moved it, I think, two inches but didn’t move it out of the way. I was gonna let it slide, but Travis got in and moved it for me. And after that, I wasn’t gonna let him put it back down."

Mahomes said he's only had similar issues three times in his NFL career ... and each happened to be before games against the Ravens.

"I have a lot of respect for him as a player, one of the best kickers of all time, probably the best kicker of all time," he added. "But at the same time, you’ve got to have respect for each team, and we all share the field, and we try to do that in a respectful way."

Regardless of intent, the Chiefs came out on top ... and now Mahomes and Co. can shift their focus to the San Francisco 49ers and Super Bowl LVIII.

Travis Kelce Se perderá los Grammys... Por su estricta agenda previa al Super Bowl

Published | Updated

Taylor Swift ha estado presente en los partidos de su novio Travis Kelce para animarlo, pero este no va a devolverle la mano durante su gran noche en los Grammy, aunque por una buena razón.

Fuentes con conocimiento directo le dicen a TMZ que el jugador de los Kansas City Chiefs va a llegar a Las Vegas el mismo fin de semana de los Grammys, donde él y su equipo estarán bajo un estricto horario estricto antes de enfrentarse a los 49ers para el Super Bowl.

Esto mata cualquier esperanza de los Swifties de que Travis Kelce esté junto Taylor en los Grammys como su acompañante. Estos se dieron cuenta de que su lugar en el Super Bowl significaba que ya no jugaría en el Pro Bowl el mismo día, y por lo tanto, técnicamente estaría libre para aparecer en los Grammys con Tay Tay.

Por desgracia, eso no va a suceder. Nuestras fuentes dicen que no hay ninguna posibilidad de que Travis aparezca en Los Ángeles este fin de semana. Por lo tanto, parece que Taylor tendrá que encontrar compañía en otro lugar o incluso viajar sola para la noche de glamour de este fin de semana, donde ella opta a 6 premios.

012924_taylor_travis_love_kal 1/28/24
Es una historia de amor

Por supuesto, este conflicto en sus agendas no parece ser un problema en el paraíso de estos dos. Recuerden que él acaba de hacerle la gran declaración de amor después de que los Chiefs ganaron su paso al Super Bowl tras una victoria 17-10 sobre los Ravens de Baltimore. Lo que significa, que están muy bien como pareja.

Mientras Taylor ha estado inundando a Travis de caricias y abrazos para apoyarlo durante sus partidos, muchos NFL'ers han estado criticando a la cantante por tomar protagonismo en los juegos, a pesar de que ella no tiene control sobre las cámaras del estadio, algo que ambos han dejado muy claro en diferentes oportunidades.

Por su parte, Travis es totalmente consciente del veneno dirigido a su mujer y le ha dicho a los reporteros que antes de los partidos discuten sobre cómo bloquear el "ruido exterior".

Afortunadamente para él, no tendrá que escuchar nada de esto en la gran noche de la música. Su mente está estrictamente centrada en el fútbol en este momento y su novia es más que capaz de manejar su negocio en el ojo público.

TRAVIS KELCE MISSING GRAMMYS, SORRY TAYLOR ... Strict SB Schedule!!

Published | Updated

UPDATE

11:15 AM -- Travis expressed his disappointment over not being able to jet to L.A. for the awards show ... saying on "The Pat McAfee Show" he wishes he could go and "watch her win every single award that she's nominated for" -- but his day job simply won't allow it.

Just like we reported, Travis explained he will be traveling to Sin City on Sunday -- the same day of the Grammys -- and while he'll be supporting in spirit, he'll have to be with the team as they focus on bringing a Lombardi Trophy back to Kansas City.

Taylor Swift's been showing up to her boo Travis Kelce's games to cheer him on ... but he won't be returning the favor during her big night at the Grammys -- but for good reason.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... the Kansas City Chiefs tight end will actually be arriving in Vegas the same weekend as music's biggest night ... where he and the team will be on a strict schedule ahead of squaring up to the 49ers for the Super Bowl.

This kills any hope from Swifties that TK would show up as Taylor's plus-one at the Grammys -- as they all realized his spot in the SB meant he'd no longer play in the Pro Bowl the same day ... and would therefore technically be free to hit up the Grammys with Tay Tay.

Alas, it ain't gonna happen -- our sources say there's no chance Travis shows up in L.A. this weekend. So, it looks like Taylor's gotta find company elsewhere or even ride solo for the glam evening this weekend. ... where she's up for 6 awards.

012924_taylor_travis_love_kal 1/28/24
It's A Love Story

Of course, the conflict in their schedule doesn't signal any trouble in paradise between the pair ... remember, he just dropped the L-bomb after the Chiefs earned their way to the Super Bowl following a 17-10 win over the Baltimore Ravens. AKA, they're doing just fine.

While TK's been soaking up Taylor's PDA-packed show of support lately, many NFL'ers haven't ... blasting the singer for making the games about her -- even though she has no control over the stadium cameras ... something both he and she have made abundantly clear.

For his part, Travis is totally aware of the venom directed at his woman ... telling off-field reporters days ahead of the AFC Championship Game they frequently discuss blocking out all of the "outside noise."

Fortunately for him, he won't have to hear any of it on a huge showbiz stage -- his mind's strictly focused on football right now ... and his GF's more than capable of handling her business in the spotlight.

DAVID LETTERMAN I'M TEAM TRAYLOR ... NFL Haters, Shut Up!!!

Published | Updated

David Letterman is telling Taylor Swift's NFL haters to "shut up" about her romance with Travis Kelce -- even though he seems a little confused about who her boyfriend is.

The talk show host offered up a passionate defense of Taylor in a new clip he posted to his social media ... and yes, it's a fierce cosign of all things Taylor, whom he calls a bright light in a world full of darkness.

013024_letterman_swift_kal
Such a lovely thing

Also ... DL hilariously confused TK for Kelsey Grammer -- something he continued to mistakenly say, even after being corrected a couple times. Point being ... he loves Taylor!

According to David, Tay doesn't deserve any hate whatsoever ... especially if her stadium-packing credentials are anything to go by -- but to those who couldn't care less about her pop culture icon status and don't want her anywhere near the pitch ... he tells 'em to zip it.

David says T&T's PDA-packed relationship is a lovely, positive, and good thing for both the NFL camp and Taylor's own. He just wants more unity in the world, not division -- and he seems to think Tay-Tay provides that.

ICYMI, Taylor's been coming out to cheer on the KC Chiefs tight end since September ... though she's been heavily criticized for distracting from the sport by fuming diehard fans.

In fact, Tony Dungy even recently compared her to outside noise affecting the game itself in a Fox News interview -- and who can forget Taylor's viral stare-down with Golden Globes host Jo Koy when he mocked her NFL appearances during his opening monologue?

Clearly, the whole thing's a very divisive matter, but David's saying just let them love and live -- adding: "God, bless Taylor Swift and Kelsey Grammar (Travis Kelce)."

David Letterman le dice a los haters de Taylor Swift de la NFL que "se callen" sobre su romance con Travis Kelce, a pesar de que parece un poco confundido acerca de quién es su novio.

David hilarantemente confundió varias veces a Travis con Kelsey Grammer, incluso después de ser corregido un par de veces. ¡El punto es que ama a Taylor!

Según David, Tay no se merece ningún tipo de odio, dice que Taylor es un fenomeno cultural estos días y al que no le importe debería quedarse al margen.

David dice que la relación es encantadora, positiva y buena tanto para el campo de la NFL y la propia Taylor. Él solo quiere más unidad en el mundo, no la división y parece pensar que TayTay proporciona eso.

Por si no lo sabías, Taylor ha estado saliendo a animar a los Chiefs desde septiembre, aunque ella ha sido duramente criticada por distraer la atención del deporte.

De hecho, Tony Dungy incluso la comparó recientemente con las cosas molestas que no tienen que ver con el juego en una entrevista con Fox News y ¿quién puede olvidar el enfrentamiento viral de Taylor con el anfitrión de los Globos de Oro Jo Koy cuando se burló de sus apariciones en la NFL durante su monólogo de apertura?

Kristin Juszczyk Strikes Licensing Deal With NFL ... After Taylor Swift's Jacket Goes Viral

Published | Updated

Kristin Juszczyk has gone official ... just days after her custom NFL fits went viral -- with some help from Taylor Swift -- the league granted her a licensing deal to use their logos on her designs!

The deal was struck this week, according to Sportico ... allowing Juszczyk -- who is married to 49ers star fullback Kyle Juszczyk -- will be able to legally use the logos of NFL teams for men's and women's clothing.

The financial terms of the agreement aren't known.

Kristin's brand is one of the hottest things going right now ... all since she received the best free marketing ever from Swift, who rocked her puffer coat design (an ode to Travis' #87) to the frigid Chiefs vs. Dolphins game in Kansas City on January 13.

Brittany Mahomes also wore a custom Juszczyk jacket with Patrick Mahomes' jersey number ... as did Olympic gymnastics legend Simone Biles, who wore a bubble vest representing her husband Jonathan Owens.

Olivia Culpo -- who's engaged to Christian McCaffrey -- also modeled a 49ers bustier by Juszczyk for the Divisional Round game this month.

And, it's not just the WAGs rockin' Juszczyk's custom designs ... "Twilight" actor Taylor Lautner wore a dope Aidan Hutchinson jacket at a Detroit Lions playoff game a few weeks ago.

While Juszczyk's amazing work has just recently grabbed the public's attention, she's been building the business for years, and now the hard work has paid off.

"She’s been grinding for years now and working so hard," Kyle said.

"I'm so happy to see her get her stuff out there, everybody sees it and recognizes it was hers."

There was speculation about what exactly was said between the two after the Chiefs punched their tickets to the Super Bowl with a 17-10 win over the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday ... with many believing they dropped L-bombs, but the sound quality couldn't definitively confirm the exchange.

The "Inside the NFL" cameras came through in the clutch for all Tayvis fans just minutes ago ... releasing a clip where hot mics picked up the majority of their convo.

Kelce is heard calling for his lady amid the postgame chaos ... saying, "Tay, I'm gonna enjoy with the guys, I love you," before leaning in for a kiss.

Swift replied by telling him how proud she is ... and there very well may have been an "I love you, too," but we can't say for sure.

Of course, there are several angles Swifties have been trying to dissect ever since the game ended ... with another vid also appearing to show Taylor saying "I love you" during an earlier interaction on the field.

Ravens' Justin Tucker Addresses Pregame Spat With Travis Kelce, Mahomes ... 'I Find It Kind Of Silly'

Published | Updated

Justin Tucker just opened up about the tiff he got into with Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes before their game on Sunday ... downplaying the incident, while calling it all "kind of silly."

The Chiefs stars had big beef with JT just before the AFC Championship at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore, after he placed his helmet and kicking balls near their warm ups. Kelce actually got so heated during the moment, he kicked Tucker's stuff ... before hurling his helmet.

On Monday, the Ravens star was asked about the encounter ... and he said it was unlike anything he had ever experienced in his 12-year career. But, he did seem to say he wasn't taking anything too personal.

"I saw Patrick there trying to warm up and get some drop backs," Tucker said. "He asked me while I was on the ground stretching if I could move my helmet. I happily got up and I moved my helmet out of the way -- at least I thought it was enough out of the way. And then Travis comes over and he just kicks my stuff, and he throws my helmet."

"I just thought it was all just some gamesmanship, all in good fun but they seemed to be taking it a little more seriously."

Tucker added he's now ready to put the whole thing behind them.

"That's just what I've done for 12 years and it's not like I'm out there trying to be problematic," he said. "I'm just trying to get ready for the football game just like they are."

Taylor Swift Will Not Perform at Super Bowl LVIII ... The Stage Is All Usher's!!!!

Published | Updated

Taylor Swift is headed to the Super Bowl in 2 weeks to watch Travis Kelce -- but for everyone thinking she might step into music mode while there ... we have bad news for ya.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... T-Swift is NOT going to be performing in any capacity during SB LVIII -- and that includes during the Halftime Show ... when Usher is scheduled to rock the house as a solo act.

Not only is Taylor not going to pick up a microphone to croon a tune ... but we're hearing there's no chance T-Swift will go anywhere near the stage, let alone step onto it.

In other words, our sources say there are zero plans to have her participate in the Super Bowl whatsoever -- outside of her just being there as a fan -- and Usher is going to have the spotlight all to himself in terms of live entertainment that day.

The reason this even has to be stated, explicitly, in the first place is because ... well, with Tay Tay cashing her ticket to the big game -- along with the Kansas City Chiefs -- her fans were rife with speculation that there might be some type of big musical surprise in store.

Makes sense, frankly ... she's the biggest pop star in the world right now, and her mere presence at the Super Bowl itself is enough to get the rumor mill whipped up, we suppose.

092423_usher_halftime_kal
GETTING THE BIG CALL

Of course, Taylor doesn't owe any favors to the NFL ... so even though her fan base might've assumed something was in the works, it's a little naïve -- everyone knows Taylor's a businesswoman, and she ain't working for free. More importantly though ... this is Usher's moment.

The other thing to consider is the fact that Taylor will have just arrived from Tokyo when she hits Vegas ... from none other than the last of 4 straight shows back-to-back-to-back-to-back.

So, yes ... Taylor will probably be pretty tired, and all her energy (we imagine) is going to be put toward her cheering on her man. It's gonna be an emotional rollercoaster ... and Taylor won't have the time or the will to put on a show. Plus, again ... her talents ain't free!
