Travis Kelce taunts Marquette King after Tyreek Hill TD (Video)
Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce taunted Oakland Raiders punter Marquette King after Tyreek Hill returned a punt for a touchdown.
There’s nothing quite look giving it right back to your opponent during a rivalry game. It might result in a flag, but taunting occasionally can be quite entertaining between bitter rivals on the football filed. On Thursday night, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce decided to take a page out of Oakland Raiders punter Marquette King’s playbook.
As the trailing Raiders had King put it deep, Tyreek Hill got great blocking and returned it all the way for a Chiefs touchdown. That’s when Kelce decided to do King’s patented celebration right in front of him on the field.
Kelce’s little dance caused the refs to throw a flag on the field and King acknowledged the taunting. With the Chiefs taking a 21-3 lead in a game that will determine the division lead, there was plenty of reason for Kelce to bust a move…or in this case steal a move on the field.
The Raiders got off to a slow start and probably weren’t expecting to get burned with the big plays consistently. After Hill caught a huge touchdown against them earlier in the game, he was able to have yet another huge return touchdown on national television.
The tight end Kelce has always been one to mix it up with the opponent and this certainly will be remembered for a long time. However, this is exactly what makes rivalries fun on the field. We’ll have to wait to see if King gets his moment to celebrate.
