There’s some concern over Travis Kelce following his slow start to the 2024 NFL season.
While the Kansas City Chiefs got a win over the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday night, beating the NFC South side 22-17, Kelce didn’t offer a typical display. The star tight end made four catches for 30 yards and, now three games in, hasn’t hit the 100-yard mark with his totals.
Kelce was also seen having a curious interaction on the sidelines with Patrick Mahomes and did not look like his usually cheerful self.

It’s also worth noting that the player’s girlfriend, Taylor Swift, was not in attendance.
Fans Were Saying All Sorts Of Things After Seeing Travis Kelce’s Demeanor
There are now growing concerns over Kelce’s ability, with fans fearful that he may finally be past it, considering the fact that he’s 34 and his body has had a lot of wear and tear.
“Something just seems off,” someone wrote.
“I thought Travis looked like he was ill,” another noted.
“He’s kinda got that pre-divorce Ben Affleck look,” someone else said.
“The break up is scheduled for the 28th I believe so then he will bounce back lol,” one fan joked.
“This is what happens when you have to act like a completely different person for a year,” one comment read.
“This is an act. He will perform poorly for the majority of the season, but once the playoffs commence, he will emerge as a hero, allowing us to focus more on Taylor Swift while the Chiefs become the first team to achieve a three-peat or both,” another read.
Travis Kelce also got off to a slow start last season, but he was dealing with an injury, which is not the case this term. Hopefully, he will have a breakout game soon enough and allay fears.
