Travis Kelce was fined $14,069 for using the goal post as a prop during a touchdown celebration on Christmas Day.

Kelce acknowledged the fine on his podcast, explaining that touching the goal post led to the penalty. He described the moment as a lighthearted tribute, despite it not going as planned due to fatigue during the game.
