Tony Romo accuses Travis Kelce of devious tactics in Chiefs win over Bills

CBS analyst Tony Romo called out Travis Kelce for 'flopping' while commentating on the Kansas City Chiefs' win over the Buffalo Bills on Sunday night. Before the Chiefs secured a 32-29 AFC Championship victory to advance to their third straight Super Bowl, Kelce became embroiled in a heated altercation with Bills defensive lineman Jordan Phillips at the end of the first half.
The tight end was chirping at Bills safety Damar Hamlin - who was too late to tackle Patrick Mahomes before the Chiefs quarterback scampered through for a touchdown - when Phillips ran over and headbutted him to defend his teammate. Officials immediately threw a flag and hit the Buffalo defender with an unnecessary roughness penalty, yet Kelce was not penalized for his instigating.
And while calling the action on CBS, Romo also accused the Chiefs star of throwing his head back and throwing his arms out dramatically to exaggerate the contact. 'Travis Kelce knows how to get under your skin,' the former Dallas Cowboys quarterback said on the broadcast.

'And then Phillips comes in. He tries for the flop.'. Sunday's scuffle was not the first time Phillips has been embroiled in a feud with the Kelce family, nevertheless.
