Travis Kelce wasn't the only Kansas City Chiefs star getting worked up on the sideline during Super Bowl LVIII.

Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes was seen having a heated exchange with wide receiver Rashee Rice on the sideline late in the fourth quarter after a failed third-down conversion.

The reason for the outburst was not abundantly clear. However, it could potentially be linked to Rice being wide-open on the play.

It is notable that the snap on the play did take Mahomes to the ground which derailed the play. Harrison Butker would hit a field goal shortly after to send the game to overtime.

Mahomes finished regulation with 291 yards and a touchdown while Rice had four catches for 20 yards. The two were able to connect for an additional two catches for 19 yards in overtime as Kansas City would emerge victorious 25-22.
