Travis Kelce 2023-24 Profile

Although Travis Kelce — the 6 foot 5, 250 pound tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs — has never been more famous than he is right now (due to him dating pop music icon Taylor Swift), Kelce isn’t actually performing up to the massive expectations we’ve come to place upon him, due to his past production. Whether that has anything to do with his world famous girlfriend is anybody’s guess — but what’s for certain is that, if the Chiefs want to win another Super Bowl this season, Travis Kelce will need to step his game up.

In this article, we’ll discuss Travis Kelce’s general information, his pre-NFL background, how his NFL career has gone thus far, and what we can expect to see from him in the 2024 playoffs.

In football, Kelce was a quarterback, and ran for 1,016 rushing yards and 10 rushing touchdowns, while throwing for 1,523 passing yards, 21 touchdowns, and 8 interceptions in his senior 2007 season.

After high school, Kelce committed to play college football at the University of Cincinnati, where his brother Jason was then currently playing. After redshirting in 2008, Kelce appeared in 11 games, as both tight end and quarterback in 2009, and tallied 8 rushes for 47 yards and 2 touchdowns along with 1 reception for 3 yards that season.

Kelce didn’t play in the 2010 season; allegedly because he was suspended by the team after testing positive for marijuana. Yet, Kelce returned in 2011 as a tight end, and recorded 13 catches totaling 150 yards and 2 touchdowns.

Kelce’s final season at Cincinnati was his strongest. He set personal career highs in receptions (45), receiving yards (722), yards per receptions (16.0), and receiving touchdowns (8), and earned first-team All-Big East honors.

After having a solid pre-draft combine, Kelce was drafted in the third round (63rd overall pick) of the 2013 NFL Draft by the Kansas City Chiefs.

Travis Kelce’s NFL Career So Far

Travis Kelce only played one snap his entire rookie season, due to a lingering knee injury that ended up requiring surgery.

Kelce then produced a solid 2014 season for the Chiefs. He made 67 receptions on the year, for 862 yards. He also scored 5 touchdowns.

In 2015, Kelce had at least 1 reception in all 16 regular season games. He recorded 72 catches for 875 yards and 5 touchdowns on the season, and was named to his first ever Pro Bowl. In his first NFL playoff game, Kelce had 8 receptions for 128 yards in a game the Chiefs won 30-0, but then Kansas City lost to the Patriots in the next round.

Kelce produced an excellent 2016 season, recording (then) career highs in yards (1,125) and receptions (85), along with 4 touchdowns. His 1,125 receiving yards led the league among tight ends. Kelce was named to his second career Pro Bowl and was also named First-team All-Pro for the first time at season’s end.

In 2017, Kelce finished the regular season with 8 touchdowns, to go along with 83 receptions and 1,038 receiving yards. He was named to his third Pro Bowl, as well.

Kelce scored a touchdown in the Chiefs’ playoff game that season, but was not able to finish the game as he suffered a concussion in the first half. The Chiefs lost the game.

2018 was the year where Patrick Mahomes took over as the Chiefs starting quarterback — and Kelce’s stock soared as a result. Kelce ended the regular season as 10th in the NFL in receptions with 103 and receiving yards with 1,336, along with being sixth in receiving touchdowns, with 10. He made another Pro Bowl and was named first-team All-Pro once again.

The Chiefs made it to the AFC Championship game that season, where they lost to the New England Patriots by a score of 37-31. Kelce had 3 receptions for 23 yards and 1 receiving touchdown in the game.

In Week 16 of the 2019 regular season, Kelce became the fastest tight end in NFL history to record 500 career receptions. He finished the 2019 season with 97 receptions for 1,229 receiving yards and 5 receiving touchdowns, to go along with 1 rushing touchdown. Kelce became the first tight end in NFL history to record four consecutive seasons with at least 1,000 receiving yards, and was named to his fifth straight Pro Bowl.

The Chiefs advanced to the Super Bowl that season. In the game, Kelce caught 6 passes for 43 receiving yards and 1 receiving touchdown, and had 1 carry for 2 rushing yards. The Chiefs won the game 31–20, giving Kelce his first ever Super Bowl victory.

Kelce continued to improve after that first Super Bowl, setting the single-season yardage record for a tight end with 1,416 in the 2020 season — to go along with 105 receptions and 11 touchdowns. He was named to his sixth Pro Bowl and earned First-team All-Pro honors for the third time.

The Chiefs made it to a second consecutive Super Bowl that season. Despite Kelce catching 10 passes for 133 yards (which set the record for most receiving yards by a tight end in a single Super Bowl), the Chiefs lost the game 31-9.

In the Chiefs’ second game of the 2021 season, Kelce become the fastest tight end in NFL history to record 8,000 career yards, doing so in 113 games. He finished the season with 92 receptions for 1,125 receiving yards and 9 touchdowns, which earned him second-team All-Pro honors and sent him to another Pro Bowl.

The Chiefs made it to the AFC Championship game that season, and Kelce recorded 10 receptions for 95 yards and a touchdown in the game. Yet, the Chiefs lost in a thrilling overtime battle.

Kelce finished the 2022 regular season with 110 receptions for 1,338 receiving yards and 12 receiving touchdowns. In the Divisional Round of the playoffs, Kelce set a single-game NFL postseason record for a tight end with 14 receptions.

The Chiefs made it to the Super Bowl that season — where Travis was matched up against his brother, Jason, who is now on the Philadelphia Eagles. It was the first Super Bowl to feature two brothers as players on opposing teams. Kelce caught 6 passes for 81 yards and a touchdown as the Chiefs beat the Eagles 38–35 to win Kelce’s second career Super Bowl.

Kelce missed the first game of the 2023 season due to a knee injury. In Week 9, Kelce broke the Chiefs franchise record for career receiving yards. So far in the season, Kelce has 93 receptions, 984 yards, and 5 touchdowns.

Travis Kelce 2024 Playoff Forecast

While perhaps Travis Kelce isn’t having the best season according to his lofty standards, he is still the best tight end in football, and one of the best tight ends of all time. It remains to be seen whether Kelce, Patrick Mahomes, and the rest of the Chiefs will be able to find postseason success in 2023 — but, considering his ongoing relationship with Taylor Swift, Travis Kelce is still clearly winning.
