Travis Kelce is now the Kansas City Chiefs’ career receptions leader
Travis Kelce became the Kansas City Chiefs' career receptions leader Sunday, passing Tony Gonzalez with his second catch against the Los Angeles Chargers. The nine-time Pro Bowl tight end made a 38-yard reception on Kansas City's opening drive to tie the record of 916 catches set by Gonzalez over 12 seasons from 1997 to 2008. Kelce then caught a 5-yard pass from Patrick Mahomes on the Chiefs' fourth drive to set the new record early in his own 12th season with the team.
He trails Gonzalez — who finished with 1,325 catches after playing five seasons for Atlanta following his Chiefs career — along with Jason Witten and Antonio Gates. Kelce was off to a slow start statistically during his first three games this season, making only eight catches for 69 yards amid what Mahomes called extra attention from opposing defenses.
