Rashee Rice, Chiefs WRs support Travis Kelce with unique shirts during pre-game warmups

Rashee Rice and members of the #Chiefs’ receiving corps showed their support for star TE Travis Kelce with unique shirts during warmups.

The Kansas City Chiefs are warming up at SoFi Stadium ahead of their Week 4 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers, and eagle-eyed fans spotted something unique as the defending champions loosened up.

Kansas City’s wide receivers seem to be offering some moral support to star tight end Travis Kelce, who has gotten off to a slow start in the Chiefs’ 2024 regular season campaign.

Perhaps hoping to help his production rebound against the Chargers, Kansas City’s pass-catchers wore Kelce-themed shirts as they went through their pre-game routines.

Check out these pictures of the shirts, which were posted to Twitter by CBS Sports Lead NFL Reporter Tracy Wolfson:

Though it appears that there weren’t enough shirts for rookie wide receiver Xavier Worthy to get in on the gag, Rashee Rice was among the Chiefs spotted wearing the supportive garb on the sideline.

Stay tuned to see if this pre-game ritual helps Kelce get back on track against Los Angeles this weekend.

WATCH: Carson Wentz shows off funky hip stretch at Chiefs training camp

#Chiefs QB Carson Wentz was seen stretching his hips in a unique way ahead of Kansas City’s training camp practice on Thursday.

Professional athletes are constantly under the microscope of their fans, and Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Carson Wentz is no exception.

While warming up for a practice session on Thursday at Chiefs training camp, Wentz was preparing for drills with a unique stretching routine that may soon catch on with other signal-callers on Kansas City’s roster.

In a video that was posted to Twitter by KC Sports Network, Wentz could be seen near the sideline of a practice field at Missouri Western State University, gyrating his hips and torso in an exercise that looked more like a dance than a workout:

Though Wentz isn’t the only quarterback in the NFL who does quirky aerobics to get his body ready for action, this particular exercise seems destined to become a fan favorite in Chiefs Kingdom due to its comedic appeal.

Stay tuned to Kansas City’s remaining training camp practices and preseason games to see if the unusual stretch is caught on camera again.

Chiefs safety Justin Reid honed kicking technique before Tuesday practice session

Justin Reid focused on honing his kicking skills ahead of the #Chiefs’ practice session on Tuesday.

Safety Justin Reid is a key part of Kansas City’s secondary, but also has the ability to serve as the team’s backup kicker in a pinch. He demonstrated his kicking abilities last year in the preseason, and was even called on to convert a couple of extra-point tries in 2022.

Reid continued honing his unique craft at the Chiefs’ Tuesday workouts, showing off his leg before Kansas City’s practice session got underway.

Though the team will certainly hope that they won’t have to rely on him in this capacity during their 2023 campaign, his utility to the Chiefs’ special teams unit shouldn’t go overlooked as Kansas City seeks to defend their Super Bowl title.

Reid has made a name for himself as one of the NFL’s top defensive backs, and in time could prove to be one of the league’s best kickers if given more opportunities to show his exceptional boot in the preseason.
