Travis Kelce is going to be one the greatest to ever play
Kelce sometimes goes under the radar with all the weapons on the Chiefs offense, but games like Monday’s show he is one of the best tight ends ever. Kelce reached 6,000 yards and 450 receptions in fewer games than any other tight end in history. It’s safe to say if he keeps up this type of production for several more years he will be going into Canton after he retires.
The greatest thing about Kelce is that he is consistently good. He has only gone over 100 yards receiving once this season, but he hasn’t had a game with less than 44 yards. He is always near the top in receptions for the Chiefs and tight ends across the league. That shows just how reliable he is and how much quarterback Patrick Mahomes trusts him.
That trust was on display Monday when Kelce took over for Tyreek Hill as the No. 1 pass catcher, grabbing the Chiefs’ only receiving touchdown, after Hill left in the first quarter with a hamstring injury. Kelce is still capable of taking over games when needed.
