Travis Kelce made his presence known early on in training camp for the Kansas City Chiefs when he and another teammate got into to it.
Kelce got in the face of George Karlaftis after the defender laid out Kadarius Toney during a recent practice. Toney was hurled onto the turf as a result of the tackle by Karlaftis before he stood up and chucked the football back at him. Kelce as clearly unhappy with the overexertion on Karlaftis’s part and let him know about it.
Gittin’ CHIPPY 😬

Kelce could be seen running over to Karlaftis before giving him a shove to the chest. Kelce also appeared to exchange heated words with his teammate while the rest of the players gathered around to break up the tense situation.
This is not the first time Kelce has gotten into with a teammate. He also made waves last season when he had a run-in with head coach Andy Reid at the Super Bowl. The three-time champ has admitted in the past that he can let his emotions get the better of him sometimes.
He also admitted that after those incidents he needed to be a better teammate. That said, maybe his way of being a better teammate was by protecting Toney.
