While running routes, Kelce’s opponent was wearing a microphone and picked up a brief conversation.
Kelce beat his opponent on the route, but didn’t get the ball from Patrick Mahomes.
That didn’t stop the cornerback, Derwin James Jr., from being upset that Kelce might have committed offensive pass interference.
“He pushed, come on ref,” James said.
Kelce was quick to respond to the allegations, admitting to bending the rules.
“Hell yea I did,” he said.
“You know my routes.”
NFL fans weren’t happy about this though, and called Kelce out for cheating on social media.
“The entire team is just cheating and not even hiding it and no one does anything,” one fan said.
“He pushes on almost every play and never gets called,” another fan said.
“Such a rigged sport,” a third fan said.
“Dude just admitted to getting away with it,” a fourth fan said.
“NFL CHIEFS at its best,” a fifth fan said.
Kelce’s “cheating” helped the Chiefs pull out a last-minute win over the Chargers on Sunday.
They completed a late comeback to win the game 19-17 on a field goal.
