Travis Kelce had everyone concerned when he limped off the field in the second quarter of Sunday’s Chiefs–Vikings game in Minnesota with what looked like a painful injury to his lower right leg.
The Chiefs’ star tight end threw his helmet on the sidelines and then slowly made his way to the locker room with what many feared might be a serious injury.
Things then quickly took a turn for the better when Kelce was seen jogging out of the locker room after the halftime break. He later got back in the game on the Chiefs’ second drive of the third quarter and scored a TD later in the quarter.
Kelce’s relationship with pop star Taylor Swift has been a big storyline this season and fans were quick to make the same Swift-inspired joke when they saw that Kelce was OK and able to play again:
he did, in fact, Shake It Off
