Kansas City Chiefs superstar wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins didn’t mince words on the performance of the NFL officials following the team’s ugly Super Bowl 59 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.
DeAndre Hopkins and the Chiefs were no match for Jalen Hurts and the Eagles, who cruised to a 40-22 victory to deny Kansas City the first-ever Super Bowl three-peat. It was a quiet day for “Nuk”, who finished the night with just two catches for 18 yards and a touchdown.
The NFL officials were a hot topic going into Super Bowl 59, thanks mainly to the Chiefs benefiting from questionable calls in the Divisional Round (vs. Houston Texans) and AFC Championship Game (vs. Buffalo Bills).
But with the Chiefs losing in blowout fashion, Ron Torbert and his crew mostly avoided public scrutiny and backlash. Still, the 18-point loss didn’t stop DeAndre Hopkins from criticizing the refs after the game, per Charean Williams of Pro Football Talk:
“It’s my first year being with the Chiefs, and I saw a lot of things in the media about the refs, but…what y’all gonna say now about the refs and us when there was a lot of touchy calls? Are y’all gonna report that? Are y’all gonna talk about the refs now?”
There was a questionable call against Chiefs cornerback Trent McDuffie, who was penalized for unnecessary roughness on tight end Dallas Goedert following an incomplete pass on third down. The fresh set of downs led to Hurts’ rushing TD to open the scoring:

DeAndre Hopkins & Chiefs Can’t Blame Refs For Lopsided Loss
At the end of the day, the Chiefs can only blame themselves for losing by 18 points. Patrick Mahomes had arguably the worst game of his career. Travis Kelce was a no-show, along with the entire offensive line. And it’s not like the KC defense did its part to keep the team in the game.

Travis Kelce’s girlfriend, Taylor Swift, did not have an enjoyable Super Bowl this year, but his ex, Kayla Nicole, appeared to have a good time at the game on Sunday.
Kelce had a very quiet game, making four catches for 39 yards as the Kansas City Chiefs got blown out by the Philadelphia Eagles. They couldn’t get it going until garbage time, when the contest was already out of reach, losing 40-22 as Philly put on a defensive clinic.
Kayla, who spent five years in a relationship with the Chiefs tight end, didn’t share his disappointment. She was seen cheering for the Eagles in the stands while holding up an “L” gesture.
Check her out in the video below:

She finally got one over them on Sunday and appeared to be pleased with herself.
