Future Hall of Famer Tom Brady was notorious for his passionate outbursts on the sidelines when things didn’t go his way. Whenever he was fired up about something he didn’t like, no tablet was safe in his presence. This brings us to the incident during Super Bowl LVIII when Travis Kelce collided with his coach Andy Reid on the sidelines while expressing his frustration about not being in the game. Opinions were divided on whether this behavior was inappropriate or not, and whether Reid should have reprimanded Kelce. AJ Brown didn’t hold back in sharing his thoughts on the matter.
On his Let’s Go! podcast, Tom Brady, the GOAT, weighed in on the incident and it’s not surprising what he had to say. Brady explained that these types of family issues are common in high-pressure games, and he didn’t mind witnessing them because he had been a part of similar situations before. Emotions run high in these moments, and players are fully focused on winning rather than being centered and balanced. Brady believes that people should let the things said during games slide off their backs. He praised coach Reid for his handling of the situation, as he acknowledged being a little off balance and recognized Kelce’s competitiveness. Brady admires Reid’s leadership and self-confidence, as he doesn’t take these incidents personally or feel offended. Reid understands the context and doesn’t view it as an attempt to belittle him; instead, he sees it as Kelce’s way of getting fired up and staying in the moment.
After the Super Bowl victory, Andy Reid revealed that Kelce was simply saying, “put me in, I’ll score.” Reid appreciated Kelce’s enthusiasm, as it wasn’t the first time he had expressed such sentiments. While lip readers may have interpreted Kelce’s words as slightly harsher, the overall sentiment remained the same.
