2024-01-31
Arrr, me hearties! Methinks Patrick Mahomes be still not takin' kindly to his skirmish with Justin Tucker, the scallywag kicker from the Baltimore Ravens, afore the grand battle on Sunday for the AFC Championship! Blimey, what a row!
In a humorous tone, the article discusses the pregame antics between Kansas City Chiefs players Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce and Baltimore Ravens kicker Justin Tucker. Before their AFC championship game, Mahomes and Kelce were seen interfering with Tucker's warm-up routine. Mahomes kicked Tucker's ball-holder away, while Kelce threw Tucker's kicking balls and helmet off the goal line. Tucker downplayed the incident, but Mahomes seemed genuinely annoyed during a radio interview, expressing frustration with kickers not moving out of the way during warm-ups. Tucker defended his routine, stating that he has been doing the same thing for 12 years and has never had a problem with anyone. He explained that kickers usually go to the other team's designated warm-up area, and he had moved his helmet when Mahomes asked him to. However, Kelce continued to disrupt Tucker's routine. Despite the pregame theatrics, Kansas City emerged victorious with a 17-10 win, securing their spot in the Super Bowl for the second consecutive year.
