There is a point where the player needs to stop. They let him go for a while. Considering that the ref wasn't looking and threw it as Kelce turned, I would assume he said something serious. With a player walking away, I would like the ref to keep the flag in his pocket. They did give him a decent amount of time to talk.
In the end, whether it was a terrible call or not, even with the ref that threw the flag being the one that called the horrible PI against Nelson, Kelce needs to shut up for the good of the team. Did he hurt the ref's feelings? If so, was it worth it.
Being justified to be upset and being justified to take that penalty are two COMPLETELY different things.
