Hot News: Travis Kelce Delivers 2-Word Message on Biggest Criticism
The Kansas City Chiefs‘ 17-20 defeat to the Buffalo Bills marked the team’s fourth loss in the past six games. Throughout the season, the team’s biggest criticism has been quarterback Patrick Mahomes‘ lack of reliable receivers. Heading into Week 15, Kansas City leads the league with 34 dropped passes, per BET MGM.
However, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has been reading the comments, and on the latest episode of his “New Heights” podcast, he sounded off on the vitriol against the Chiefs offense. To the “media pointing fingers” toward the Chiefs’ skill players, Kelce sent a strong message. “F*** that,” Kelce said.

“When you watch the film, penalties in critical moments, turnovers in critical moments, it’s everybody,” he said. “Yeah, it’s frustrating, but at the same time, we know a lot of it is self-inflicted. And we know that moving forward, it can be fixed.”
"These receivers can't get out of the way of hurting the team. Too many times at the end of the game."

While Kelce admits he may sound like a broken record, “It’s my livelihood to keep this kind of mentality throughout the season.” The All-Pro warned the Chiefs are using the criticism as fuel. “It’s only building that beast that we’ve been trying to create this entire year,” Kelce said. “I just wanted to make sure that Chiefs Kingdom, everybody knows that we have everybody we need here, and we’re going to get it fixed.”

The most heartbreaking moment during the Chiefs’ loss to Buffalo was Kelce’s incredible touchdown throw getting reversed. With 1:25 left in the fourth quarter, Mahomes threw a 25-yard dart to Kelce, who lateraled the ball to wide receiver Kadarius Toney. But Toney lined up offsides and the legendary play was irrelevant.
Mahomes was livid over the call. The seven-year veteran needed to be held back from the refs and couldn’t contain his emotions when shaking Bills quarterback Josh Allen‘s hand after the game.
