Travis Kelce said that he and Patrick Mahomes aren’t on the same page
Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce and quarterback Patrick Mahomes have won three Super Bowl titles together. Kelce has been one of the most reliable targets for Mahomes through the building of this current NFL dynasty.
This season though, as the Kansas City Chiefs look to become the first NFL team to win three straight Super Bowls, their on-field chemistry is missing. Kelce admitted on the Dec. 4 episode of the “New Heights” podcast that his lack of production this season is due to them “not being on the same page”.
“And right now I just, for whatever reason this year, I just can’t find my way in the end zone. I’m just not on the same page as Pat. And it can get frustrating. It can get f*****g frustrating, that’s for damn sure,” Kelce said on the “New Heights” podcast.

In 12 games this season, Kelce has 75 receptions for 637 receiving yards and just two touchdowns. The Chiefs continue to struggle in the red zone and have scored just 52.08% of the time when they are inside the 20-yard-line, which ranks them 24th in the NFL.
