Travis Kelce gives devastated Josh Allen a classy message on the field moments after his Kansas City Chiefs team beat the Buffalo Bills in an all-time classic to move one win away from the Super Bowl
Travis Kelce was caught on camera delivering a classy message of commiseration to Bills quarterback Josh Allen after the Chiefs won a classic in Buffalo on Sunday night.
Kelce had enjoyed one of the great nights of his career, scoring two touchdowns to lead his side to a 27-24 victory, with girlfriend Taylor Swift and his brother Jason cheering him on from the stands.
But before making his way off the field to celebrate with his loved ones, Kelce made sure he showed his respect to the beaten rival.
He told Allen: ‘You know it’s all the love in the world baby. Love you brother. Helluva job getting here. That s*** is crazy that you got here.’
The two had been filmed appearing to clash as they made their way off the field at the halftime interval, when the Bills held a narrow lead. But Kelce, the Chiefs tight end, appeared eager to make sure there was no ill feeling between them after the game.

Kelce scored two touchdowns on one of the great nights of his career in a big Chiefs win
The lead changed an incredible five times on the night and a cold and snowy Highmark Stadium in Buffalo. Allen scored two touchdowns himself as the Bills team left everything on the field in the loss to last year’s Super Bowl winners.
Kelce’s first touchdown came in the second quarter to give the Chiefs a 13-10 lead and he scored moments into the beginning of the third, too.
Isiah Pacheco scored the go-ahead touchdown on a 4-yard run 40 seconds into the fourth quarter, the fifth lead change in the game.
Buffalo’s Tyler Bass was wide right on a 44-yard field goal attempt with 1:43 remaining, and Kansas City ran out the clock.
The Chiefs will no doubt toast a magnificent win but attention has to sharply turn to another huge game next weekend on the road against the Baltimore Ravens – the team many pick to go all the way and win the Super Bowl.
‘That’s a great team down there,’ said Kelce’s teammate Isiah Pacheco. ‘We’ve got to be tight as a whole but at Kansas City we head there as one.’
Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes echoed Pacheco’s remarks, saying: ‘There´s no weakness there.
‘It´s going to take our best effort. Defense, offense, special teams, they do it all. It´s always a great challenge and that stadium´s going to be rocking, so we´re excited for the challenge.’
Allen finished 26 of 39 for 186 yards and a touchdown, and also ran for two scores. Allen finished with a team-leading 72 yards rushing to increase his career playoff total to 563, the second most among NFL quarterbacks in league history and trailing only Steve Young (594).
Buffalo scored on four of its first five possessions, with Allen´s 13-yard TD pass to Khalil Shakir putting the Bills up 24-20 with 3:23 left in the third quarter.
