BREAKING: YOU WON’T BELIEVE What Happened at the NFL Preseason Game Kickoff…Travis Kelce took a knee during the national anthem, a move that cost him a staggering $10 million fine and an immediate ejection from the game to Never…See More

In a development that has sent shockwaves through both the NFL and the sports world at large, Kansas City Chiefs star tight end Travis Kelce made headlines last night after taking a knee during the playing of the national anthem at the team’s preseason matchup against the Arizona Cardinals.

The moment unfolded just minutes before kickoff, as the stadium stood in solemn silence for the anthem.

Cameras caught Kelce stepping forward from the Chiefs’ sideline, lowering himself to one knee, and bowing his head—a gesture widely associated with silent protest.

Within seconds, murmurs spread through the crowd, and social media lit up with reactions ranging from passionate support to fiery criticism.

NFL officials wasted no time responding. According to league insiders, Kelce’s decision violated new preseason conduct guidelines implemented this year, resulting in an unprecedented $10 million fine and his immediate ejection from the game.

The penalty is believed to be one of the largest ever issued for an in-game act of protest.

“I’ve coached a lot of great players, and Travis is one of the best. This is a sensitive and emotional issue. Right now, my focus is on our team, but we’ll address this internally.”

Fans were split in their reactions. Many took to X (formerly Twitter) to applaud Kelce’s bold stance, framing it as a courageous act of free expression. Others condemned the move, arguing that the game was not the place for political gestures.

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell released a brief statement early this morning:

> “While we respect the right of players to express themselves, the league has clear policies in place. Violations of these policies will be addressed swiftly and decisively.”

As of now, it remains unclear whether the Chiefs will take additional disciplinary action against Kelce or if this incident could impact his position on the roster.

What is certain is that the sports world will be talking about this for weeks to come.

Social media hashtags like #KelceProtest, #TakeAKnee, and #NFLDrama are already trending worldwide.

This shocking preseason twist not only changes the conversation around the Chiefs’ upcoming season but also reignites the national debate over athletes, free speech, and patriotism in professional sports.

I’ll never forget how excited I was in 2006 when my first album sold 40,000 copies in its first week. I was 16 and couldn’t even fathom that that many people would care enough about my music to invest their time and energy into it. Since then I’ve tried to meet and thank as many people as I could who have given me the chance to chase this insane dream. Here we are all these years later and a hundred times that many people showed up for me this week. I have 4 million thank you’s I want to send to the fans, and 4 million reasons to feel even more proud of this album than I already was. Thank you for going out to celebrate this project in the movie theaters, investing in vinyl, streaming, watching the video, buying CDs, reading the poems I wrote inside the packaging, and immersing yourselves in The Life of a Showgirl. I’ll cherish this feeling forever. Just wow. Thank you for the lovely bouquet 💐 📸: Mert Alas & Marcus Piggott
