In the ever-evolving landscape of NFL history, certain players leave an indelible mark that transcends generations. Travis Kelce, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end, has just etched his name more profoundly into the NFL record books with a jaw-dropping achievement.
Kelce has now amassed an incredible 11,854 career receiving yards, bulldozing past Antonio Gates to claim the third spot in the all-time tight end receiving yards rankings.
As Kelce continues redefining what’s possible for a tight end in professional football, we’re not just witnessing statistics being rewritten—we’re watching history unfold. In what seemed like just another typical Chiefs game (if there is such a thing), the 35-year-old tight end reminded us why he’s not just playing football – he’s crafting his legacy with every catch.
Travis Kelce now has 11,854 career receiving yards, passing Antonio Gates for the 3rd most by a tight end in NFL history.
Only tight ends with more receiving yards:
Tony Gonzalez – 15,127
Jason Witten – 13,046— Underdog NFL (@Underdog__NFL) November 24, 2024
With a seemingly routine 19-yard reception from his partner-in-crime Patrick Mahomes, Kelce didn’t just move the chains; he moved past NFL legend Antonio Gates on the all-time receiving yards list for tight ends.
Right now, Kelce is sitting in fifth place for tight ends in career receiving touchdowns, racking up 76. He’s got a bit of a climb ahead of him, trailing behind legends like Danny Gates (116), Tony Gonzalez (111), Rob Gronkowski (92), and Jimmy Graham (89). His success comes from a cool mix of his playing style and physical skills, which really sets him apart among the best tight ends.
Even with such impressive numbers, Kelce always has that drive to do more for his team. Looking at his 2024 season, he’s got 62 catches on 80 targets, totaling 507 yards and two touchdowns.
His average of 8.2 yards per catch really showcases his talent and highlights how much he brings to the tight end position. From the football field to romance, while Travis Kelce is breaking football records and her girlfriend is breaking rules for him! Let’s unravel the story behind this dynamic duo!
What makes Taylor Swift to break her commitments
Taylor Swift, known for her intense focus and attention to detail during the Eras tour, seems to have eased up on one of her main rules regarding her relationship with NFL star Travis Kelce.
Swift is taking a breather from her busy tour schedule to chill out with Kelce. It’s unusual to see him enjoying cocktails, but everyone deserves to relax sometimes.
Beabadoobee, who’s been touring with her, mentioned that while Swift’s performances are like marathons, requiring serious concentration and energy—lasting three hours filled with dancing and heartfelt moments—her commitment to staying sober during shows emphasizes how dedicated she is to her craft.
Beabadoobee mentioned about Swift The Eros Tour. She mentioned that this is an epic musical journey that demands a ton of focus and hard work. Swift’s commitment to delivering a pure experience shines through in her three-hour performance, packed with amazing dance moves and heartfelt storytelling.

But when she’s off the road and hanging out with Kelce, it looks like she allows herself to relax a bit more and sometimes enjoys a drink.
