NFL Makes Surprise Announcement About Chiefs TE Travis Kelce After Heartbreaking Thanksgiving Loss To Cowboys
Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has been one of the few bright spots in whatâs shaping up to be the clubâs worst season in the otherwise illustrious Andy Reid era.
After exceeding the 1,000-yard mark seven straight years from 2016 to 2022, Kelce finished below the plateau in consecutive seasons (984 in 2023, 823 in 2024). This season, heâs barely on pace to return to the 1K mark, with 719 receiving yards through 12 games.
Despite Travis Kelceâs strong bounce-back season, however, the Chiefs are a middling team with a 6-6 record after their Thanksgiving Game loss to the Dallas Cowboys. Not only do they realistically need to win out to make the playoffs, but KC will need a lot of help with the 8-4 Buffalo Bills, Indianapolis Colts and Los Angeles Chargers occupying the three wild card spots.
Even though Arizona Cardinals star Trey McBride is the only tight end with more receiving yards (879) than Kelce, Kansas Cityâs All-Pro weapon sits third in Pro Bowl voting at the position, per NFL Networkâs Tom Pelissero.
Colts rookie Tyler Warren is ahead of Kelce despite having fewer catches, receiving yards and touchdowns:
The Pro Bowl is also essentially a popularity contest, and Travis Kelce is only engaged to the worldâs biggest music star in Taylor Swift. Indeed, itâs baffling that heâs only third among tight ends here.

Recently, Travis Kelce attributed the Chiefsâ struggles this season to a lack of discipline and urgency. Indeed, weâve seen some uncharacteristic mistakes at the worst possible times by the team thatâs played in seven straight AFC Championship Games and five of the last six Super Bowls.
Kansas Cityâs rushing game, offensive line and defense arenât playing up to their usual standards this season. If the Chiefs are to make the playoffs, theyâll need the big guns like Kelce, Rashee Rice, Patrick Mahomes and Chris Jones to do the heavy lifting.
The cliche about needing âyour best players to be your best playersâ certainly rings true for Kansas City heading into their crucial âSunday Night Footballâ clash with the red-hot Houston Texans.
