Kelce has been great for the Kansas City Chiefs, but the resurgence of the Chiefs has also brought the spotlight on the players more so than the past few seasons.

Kelce is the most compelling player on the Chiefs roster, which was indicated by him being chosen to star in his own dating show this past summer.

The beef with Kelce and other teams started surfacing in 2014 and the first was with Von Miller of the Denver Broncos. Miller had a cheap shot hit on Alex Smith and Kelce made a gesture behind a referee.

Who would have thought that one inappropriate hand gesture would have led to an ongoing battle between these two since then? Kelce had tweeted out an explanation of why he did what he did (since deleted, but you can read the original tweet on Arrowhead Pride), which was that he felt Von Miller deserved to get his in return.

That rivalry continued on after the Chiefs lost to the Broncos in embarrassing fashion in week two of the 2015 season. Miller continued to be a poor sport and rub in the Chiefs loss in Kelce’s face by tweeting at him that he was a fake Gronk.

While the Miller/Kelce feud has seemingly calmed down since then (probably because Miller has lost to Kelce both times that they’ve played and is quiet whenever he loses), Kelce has a new worst enemy.
