Yup - had to be a screen. Look at how far downfield Creed and Humphrey are and how they hold at 1 yard before both simultaneously bolting down the field. That was clearly the timing of a screen pass. And they break just as Kelce should be receiving the pass. Anything else and it's going to be the most obvious ineligible man downfield penalty ever committed.
With as carefully timed and coordinated as Reid's screen game is, I don't think there's any question that was a designed middle screen to Kelce. And as obvious a foul as has ever existed happened right in front of the official who's job it is to watch for that very foul and it didn't get called.
But yeah - Chiefs get all the breaks.
Good catch.
