Chiefs News: Andy Reid sends clear message to Travis Kelce with strong warning to rest of the NFL

Published

Many things have been said about Travis Kelce in the 2024 NFL season, but Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid has always come to the tight end’s defense.

 

 

The start of the 2024 NFL season was challenging for Travis Kelce. However, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end always had full support from head coach Andy Reid, and that confidence eventually paid off.

The veteran tight end, who turned 35 earlier in October, scored his first touchdown of the year in a breakout performance during the Chiefs‘ 27-20 road win over division rivals Las Vegas Raiders.

With 10 catches for 90 yards (averaging 9.0 yards per reception) on 12 targets, Kelce led Kansas City’s pass catchers on Sunday. While it was the kind of game he needed to silence his critics, Reid never doubted the tight end. And the coach warned the rest of the NFL not to underestimate his player.

He’s one of the great ones. You might slow him down for a minute, but not for very long,” Reid told reporters on Thursday when asked about Kelce, via Charles Goldman of A to Z Sports.

Reid came to Kelce’s defense every time the player faced criticism for his slow start to the 2024 NFL season, so it’s probably refreshing for the coach to see the 3x Super Bowl champion prove the doubters wrong.

Before posting season-high stats on Sunday, the veteran tight end was struggling to look like his true self. Still, Reid was happy with Kelce’s new role in the Chiefs’ offense as a blocker.
He’s so willing to do that. He just wants to win, is what he wants to do, and make sure we’re doing well offensively. He isn’t selfish that way – he just wants to be in there…,” Reid said.

With the player getting double-teamed, the first weeks of the 2024 season saw other pass catchers take the limelight. But far from complaining, Kelce accepted that his chemistry with Patrick Mahomes may not be the same as in previous years.

Either way, Kelce has made sure to let everyone know that the only thing that matters to him is to succeed. Back in September, the tight end reminded Reid and Mahomes about his priorities: “As long as we’re winning football games, we’re good to go, baby.”
