Kelce, 36, caught a pass from Patrick Mahomes and looked set to reach the end zone for a touchdown.

But he was tackled by Lions cornerback Rock Ya-Sin just short.

And the tight end was flipped upside down before landing on his head.

Fans watching the game Sunday night couldn’t believe there was no check on Kelce’s health.

“This Lions team is tough but we were fired up to experience this challenge.

“We went out there and put a 30-ball on that defense and that’s not an easy thing to do.

“I can’t tell you how proud I am of these guys for finding a way to get it done.

“In this building, you get challenged every single week.
