Travis Kelce has broken his silence on his lackluster production to start the new season for the Kansas City Chiefs.
The star tight end is going through a notable slump. He has delivered the lowest output over any three-game stretch of his entire career, earning rife criticism from fans and analysts. Many suggest that the lively offseason he had with Taylor Swift could be to blame, with Kelce making just eight catches for 69 yards over a the aforementioned spell.
Kelce addressed the slump on the newest episode of his ‘New Heights’ podcast and explained that it’s just football.
“I’ve had a lot of catches in this league, man. I’m not worried about the catches and the yards, and all of that, I have the most fun when I get the ball thrown my way, I mean, who doesn’t?” he said.
“It has everything to do with execution and just making sure we’re doing everything we can to win these football games, that’s always going to be the goal. I think everyone saw my drop in the fourth quarter and the crucial third down, just trying to do too much before putting the ball away.”
