In the 2024 NFL season, a well-known player joins Andy Reid’s Kansas City Chiefs on the active roster to challenge Travis Kelce for the starting position.
The fact that the Kansas City Chiefs are 4-0 so far in the 2024 NFL doesn’t take away from the strength of Andy Reid’s talented team. In light of this, the front office has signed a well-known player to challenge Travis Kelce for the starting position this year.
Reid authorized a player he knows to contest Kelce’s position on a squad that is headed for a three-time championship dream and has won two straight Super Bowls. A small amount of internal pressure is required occasionally.
Jody Fortson, a tight end, is the new player on Andy Reid’s active roster for the Chiefs. He will partner with Patrick Mahomes and challenge Kelce for the starting role. Adam Schefter, an NFL insider, verified the details on his X account (previously Twitter).
This season, Fortson became a member of the Miami Dolphins practice squad. His arrival to the active roster poses a danger to the three-time Super Bowl-winning starter, who was formerly a member of the Chiefs’ roster from 2019 to 2023. He plays tight end like Travis Kelce.
Despite missing one attempt and totaling 15 receptions for 158 yards without a touchdown this season, Travis Kelce has participated in all four games. For the seasoned tight end, it is definitely a poor production, and he will now need to consider the competition for his spot.
