49 h. ago Chiefs’ Travis Kelce admits he ‘slipped a little bit’ given off

Tight end says last two seasons ‘not to my standard’Says off-field acting and hosting drew focus from NFLKC star motivated to ‘show up’ for Chiefs this seasonKansas City Chiefs star tight end Travis Kelce is the first to admit that his past two seasons haven’t been up to par.
