"I keep thinking if I show up to work and I put in the work and I fix the issues through my practice habits and through perfecting the game plan and my fundamentals and what I'm being taught and go out there and try and play my ass off for my guys next to me, it's all going to come together like it has in years past. And this year is just not, man."
"You put in all this f---ing work and hope that it pays off. And right now, it's just for whatever f---ing reason, man, it's little things. I feel like I've always had the answers in years past. And this year, I just can't find them."
"Every season I've had with him these last few years, I try to cherish because you never know [if this will be his last]. He got himself in great shape this year and he's played great football. He'll have the option to do whatever he wants to do after this season"
Travis Kelce finished the game with two drops and one reception, the first time in his 13-year career he had more drops than catches. Kelce expressed frustration about not finding answers this season despite hard work, practice, and attention to fundamentals. Two consecutive late fourth-quarter drops included one that preceded Patrick Mahomes' third interception and ended the Chiefs' last comeback chance. The Chiefs totaled five drops, tied for the second most by any team this season. Kelce declined reporters' questions and sat in front of his locker with his hands atop his bowed head. Mahomes said he cherishes seasons with Kelce and noted Kelce's conditioning and future options.
