Buffalo Bills defensive tackle Jordan Phillips headbutted Travis Kelce in a heated confrontation during Sunday's AFC Championship showdown - and it is not the first time he has clashed with the Kelce family. Phillips responded with force to Kelce when the Kansas City Chiefs tight end Kelce started chirping at Bills safety Damar Hamlin, who had failed to get across to stop a Patrick Mahomes touchdown.
Phillips ran over and headbutted Kelce, who threw his arms out as he stepped back from taking the hit. Phillips was hit with an unnecessary roughness penalty but Kelce escaped any form of punishment. And it is not the first time Phillips has been embroiled in a feud with the Kelce family.
Last year, he responded angrily to Jason Kelce when the then Philadelphia Eagles offensive linemen accused him of deliberately trying to hurt Cam Jurgens in a November 2023 game. Kelce said 'bulls***' Phillips wasn't fined for taking Jurgens down when he had moved offside and said the Bills man was 'trying to hurt' his teammate.
