The one thing that is true about Travis Kelce is that he seems to be honest all the time. In addition to becoming a Kansas City Chiefs legend, Kelce has made a name for himself as one of the best tight ends in NFL history as a key component of head coach Andy Reid’s innovative offense.
With a poor start to 2024, the 35-year-old Kelce raised concerns about if Father Time was finally catching up to the three-time Super Bowl champion. But there’s no need to worry—Kelce has returned to his peak performance in recent weeks as the Chiefs keep winning and his girlfriend Taylor Swift continues to encourage him. He further cemented his name into Chiefs legend on Sunday, capping that comeback to form.

On Sunday, Kelce did more than simply convert a big fourth-and-goal situation when he snagged a two-yard touchdown ball from Patrick Mahomes. He also helped the Chiefs go closer to their rival Denver Broncos.
Kelce tied Pro Football Hall of Fame tight end Tony Gonzalez for the most touchdowns by a receiver in Chiefs franchise history after curving back toward the ball and catching his 76th career touchdown reception. Although he still has 41 touchdowns left to overtake Antonio Gates for the most touchdowns by a tight end in NFL history, Kelce, a four-time All-Pro who has been chosen to nine straight Pro Bowl games, will stand alone with one more score.
With that TD reception, TE Travis Kelce now has 76 career touchdown catches, tying PFHOF TE Tony Gonzalez for the most touchdown receptions in franchise history. It's his 2nd TD catch of the season.

Swift witnessed more history from her boyfriend and his squad during her 18th Chiefs game thanks to Kelce’s second-quarter touchdown grab. Last season, Swift helped Kansas City capture the AFC title and the Super Bowl. The “Cardigan” singer will be prepared for the Chiefs’ postseason run, which the team hopes will conclude in New Orleans with a first-ever Super Bowl three-peat, as her world-spanning, 149-show Eras Tour draws to a close in less than a month.
