Nicole and Kelce dated on and off for five years before officially calling it quits in May 2022. Kelce then moved on to the 14-time Grammy winner in July 2023, becoming one of the most high-profile couples in recent history.
However, Sunday’s showing from the Chiefs was extremely underwhelming as they failed to catch their rhythm through four quarters.
With the Chiefs getting desperate in the fourth quarter, quarterback Patrick Mahomes threw an interception to Gardner-Johnson, who returned it for a 98-yard touchdown. However, Jalen Carter had jumped offside on the play, which nullified the touchdown.
Nonetheless, the 21 seconds the play took off the clock were not nullified.
Furthermore, Gardner-Johnson tallied a solo and two ᴀssisted tackles to put the nail in the coffin of their second franchise тιтle.
Uncertainty surrounds Kelce’s future as speculation of his retirement has circulated during the build-up to the Super Bowl.
