Mahomes continued, “I’m going to do my best to keep feeding him the ball whenever he’s there, whenever he’s open. I think the more Rashee [Rice] makes plays, the more we’re able to run the football, the more we can get [Xavier] Worthy involved, I think that’s going to open Travis up more. People are really emphasizing taking him away and that’s getting other guys open.”

On last week’s episode of his New Heights podcast with brother Jason Kelce, Travis said he has learned not to stress about early-in-the-season, underwhelming performances.

“I used to get really, really pissed off and almost lose my cool a lot of the time from not having that success knowing that I demand that out of myself and I just like to play the game to such a high level of accountability that it’s just tough for me to deal with being mediocre or having stats that represent that,” Kelce said.

He continued, adding ““For whatever reason, these past two games it hasn’t gone that way for me and that’s football, man. I’m not about to sit here and get frustrated about it.”

Yet Kelce was caught by cameras on Sunday night looking less-than-enthusiastic during the game.

In one clip on X, Kelce kept his head down and rubbed at his eye while seated on the sidelines.

The NFL star was also seen looking nonplussed during a conversation with his quarterback in footage from the game.

Fans took notice of Kelce’s mood, sharing the clip and commenting on his apparent frustration. One user wrote, “Free Travis Kelce man,” while another said, “You’ll find those routes again, Travis. No doubt… You already know…#ChiefsKingdom.”
