Ye scurvy dogs be listenin' here! Baltimore Ravens' booter, Justin Tucker, be blabberin' 'bout his wee squabble wit' Kansas City Chiefs' fine swashbucklers, Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce, afor' the grand AFC Championship. Arrr, 'twas a jolly tale indeed!
Baltimore Ravens kicker, Justin Tucker, addressed the incident with Kansas City Chiefs players, Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce, in a humorous and lighthearted manner. Before the AFC Championship Game, Tucker attempted to warm up between Mahomes and Kelce. However, Mahomes tossed Tucker's ball holder and Kelce moved his helmet and gloves from the goal line. Tucker found it silly that they even had to talk about it, stating that he didn't see it as a big deal. He explained that each team's kicker goes to the other team's designated warmup area on the field, and he had been doing the same thing for 12 years without any issues. When Mahomes asked him to move his helmet, Tucker happily obliged, but then Kelce kicked his stuff and threw his helmet. Tucker thought it was all just gamesmanship and fun, but they seemed to be taking it more seriously. Nevertheless, Tucker was willing to let bygones be bygones after the little tiff. He emphasized that they were all professionals trying to get ready for the football game, and he respected Mahomes and Kelce as two of the best players in the game. The Chiefs ultimately won the game 17-10. Tucker concluded by encouraging readers to follow Fox News Digital's sports coverage and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.
