The NFL has fined Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce $14,069 for "unsportsmanlike conduct (use of prop)" for his tribute to Tony Gonzalez during the team's 29-10 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers on Christmas Day.

Travis Kelce's touchdown catch on Christmas was the 77th of his career, moving him ahead of Tony Gonzalez on the Chiefs' all-time list.

After Kelce hauled in that record-setting touchdown in the fourth quarter, he immediately went to the post and showed he had just enough hops at 35 to pull off the dunk. Kelce was indeed penalized for the celebration, but he shouldn’t expect to pay the fine for it.

Kelce was paying homage to former Chiefs tight end Tony Gonzalez, who did that celebration after scoring a touchdown back in the days when it wasn’t illegal in the NFL.

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce stands alone with the most touchdown receptions in franchise history.
