NFL: Tom Brady believes the Chiefs remain the team to beat and has faith in Mahomes and Kelce.

Travis Kelce’s slower start this season has sparked various theories, ranging from his growing interests in podcasting and entertainment to his relationship with Taylor Swift. However, the simplest explanation is that Kelce is feeling the strain of his physically demanding role as he begins his 12th season at 34 years old.

Throughout the 2023 season, he faced some fluctuations, including a slow start, a midseason comeback, and another decline toward the end of the regular season, with a few standout performances against the Bills and Raiders.

When the playoffs arrived, Kelce performed at his usual elite level, demonstrating he can still be a clutch player.

This year could play out similarly. While Kelce may not be the automatic go-to target he once was, his chemistry with Patrick Mahomes remains a crucial element of the Chiefs’ offense, making him a threat in any situation.

Although he might not make as many routine plays, his ability to make big plays and exploit defenses keeps him a vital asset.

Reid’s trust in Kelce
As Kansas City incorporates younger receivers and relies on Noah Gray to help with Kelce’s workload, his stats may decline, which could disappoint fantasy football fans. However, when the postseason arrives, Kelce will still be Mahomes’ trusted option in critical moments, and he has more than enough left in the tank to be a game-changer.
