Super Bowl LVIII’s most intense moment—Travis Kelce yelling at Andy Reid, the head coach—was shown globally.
But the tight end’s statement to his coach is vague. Thanks to a lip reader’s interpretation of the intense moment, we now know what happened, even if Kelce has refused to tell.
The video shows Kelce lash out at his head coach in the second quarter of the big game.
Running up to Reid, the Chiefs tight end snatched his arm and screamed at him.
Even while Kelce wouldn’t spill the beans, he did ask, “You guys see that? When he was joking with his coach about how much he liked him, he said, “I’m going to keep it between us unless my mic’d up tells the world.” Lip readers saved the day.
Lip readers were able to deduce that Kelce yelled out, “Keep me in!” as reported by MailOnline. I despise you! All is well now!
How composed does Kelce appear to you?

Despite the seriousness of the inappropriate interaction, Reid managed to make light of it in the postgame.
According to Reid, “He keeps me young” when he discusses Kelce. “He had that hip checked out. He knocked me for a loop; usually I’d give him a small leash, but I was unsteady.
That was totally unacceptable! It makes no difference if Andy Reid may make light of it later; it is unacceptable to treat another person with such contempt.
