Travis Kelce revealed that he and Patrick Mahomes arent on the same page after the Kansas City Chiefs tight win against the Las Vegas Raiders last week.
The tight end opened up about his and Mahomes recent lack of chemistry on the field on Wednesdays episode of his and brother Jason Kelces New Heights podcast.
Im just not on the same page as Pat, he said. It can get frustrating. It can get fking frustrating. Thats for damn sure.
Where I take a lot of pride is once we get in that red zone, man, he continued. Once we get in that red zone, man, I get a little hungrier and right now, for whatever reason this year, I just cant find my way in the end zone.
During Fridays game at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Mo., Travis caught seven passes for 68 yards but failed to secure a touchdown before the game ended 19-17.
The football pro, 35, has only made two touchdowns during the Chiefs current 12 games of the 2024-25 season, which is two fewer than last season to date, per ESPN.
Reflecting on the game, Travis said on the podcast, They had a good understanding of what we were trying to do and how to stop us and how to slow us down.
They eliminated a lot of the big-time plays that we had. On top of that, keep us out of the end zone. That was the biggest thing for me.
I know you hold yourself to a really high standard, Jason added. I think youre being a little hard on yourself.
The Chiefs have won 11 out of 12 games during the 2024-25 NFL season with their first defeat being to the Buffalo Bills on Nov. 17.
In September, Travis owned up to his and the Chiefs slow start on the field following a tight match against the Atlanta Falcons, which saw his team win 22-17.
Were finding ways to win games, but were not playing our best football, he admitted on the New Heights podcast.
Everybody can clean it up. I think everyone saw my drop in the fourth quarter with that crucial third down.
