Cracks reportedly forming between Kansas City Chiefs teammates Harrison Butker and Travis Kelce

Rumors of a rift between Kansas City Chiefs teammates Harrison Butker and Travis Kelce have been swirling for weeks, and now it appears there may be some truth to the speculation.

According to sources, the two players have been spending less time together in recent months, both on and off the field. This is a stark contrast to their previous relationship, which was often described as close and brotherly.

The rumors of a falling out first surfaced in May, when it was reported that Butker had made some disparaging remarks about Kelce to a teammate. Butker was reportedly heard saying that Kelce was “afraid of Tom Brady” and that he was only “famous because he rides Patrick Mahomes’ coattails.”

The comments were allegedly made after Kelce had been critical of Butker’s performance in a recent game. Kelce reportedly said that Butker was “not clutch” and that he was “costing the team games.”

The rift between the two players is reportedly causing some concern among Chiefs coaches and staff. They are worried that it could affect the team’s chemistry on the field.

“If these two guys can’t get along off the field, it’s going to be tough for them to be teammates on the field,” said a source close to the team.

The Chiefs have not commented on the rumors of a rift between Butker and Kelce. However, both players have taken to social media to deny that there is any problem between them.

“We’re still boys,” Butker tweeted. “Just because we don’t hang out as much as we used to doesn’t mean there’s anything wrong.”

“All good here,” Kelce posted on Instagram. “We’re focused on winning a championship.”

Only time will tell if Butker and Kelce can mend their relationship. However, the rumors of a rift between the two players are certainly a cause for concern for Chiefs fans.
