Despite Kelce's impressive performance, the day belonged to Denver as they clinched the win with a walk-off field goal by Wil Lutz, improving their record to 9-2 and dropping the Chiefs to 5-5.
Barron's post, which was later deleted, sparked a social media frenzy with fans reacting strongly to his demand to be featured in a Taylor Swift song.
