Travis Kelce is getting the blame for ‘breaking’ Baltimore Ravens kicker Justin Tucker as the 13-year veteran has struggled all season.
During the AFC Championship game in January, Kelce went viral for tossing Tucker’s helmet and kicking tee during warm ups. The Chiefs beat Baltimore, 10-17, on their way to a consecutive Super Bowl title.
While Tucker completed his lone field goal in the conference championship, his field goal attempts this season have been a career-low 72.7 percent.
After going 1-3 in a loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday, fans took to social media to highlight how the incident with Kelce seemingly caused Tucker to lose his footing.
‘We deada** need a 30 for 30 on Patrick mahomes and kelce ruining Justin tucker,’ one user suggested. ‘He’s been a** since pregame of the afc championship.’

‘Taylor Swift voodoo,’ another chimed in.
Former Chiefs wide receiver Gehrig Dieter also wrote, ‘Kelce really broke Justin Tucker!
However, other fans insisted that Tucker had struggled before the AFC title game. Another group pointed out how the entire team was off during Sunday’s loss.
‘He’s been missing all regular season before this,’ one user responded. ‘Dont even try to say it was cuz of this.’
‘His key misses pre date this incident,’ another added.
Nonetheless, Tucker has made 16 of 22 field goal attempts as the Ravens are 7-4 this season. They will try to return to the win column against the LA Chargers on Nov. 25.
