Oakland Raiders punter Marquette King may be one of the NFL's best, but it's his Twitter game that people should watch -- just ask Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.

Following wide receiver Tyreek Hill's 78-yard punt return for a touchdown in the second quarter of Thursday night's 21-13 Chiefs win, Kelce ran onto the field and danced right in front of King.

It appeared as though Kelce would have the last laugh, saying after the game, "[King] told me I didn't have any rhythm."

"Trust me, wait until I get into the end zone again," he said. "I'll show you some rhythm."

But King put all that talk to rest with this tweet making fun of Kelce'sTV dating show, "Catching Kelce."

The 28-year-old punter, who is averaging 47.6 yards per punt and has landed 27 punts inside the 20-yard line this season, is a man of many talents and enjoys celebrating after a good punt. As Kelce learned the hard way -- if you come at the king, you best not miss.
