Fans Criticize Taylor Swift’s Outfit at Chiefs vs. Texans Game, Claiming She Looks ‘Too Old’ and ‘Has Gained Weight’
The Kansas City Chiefs are gearing up for their first game of the playoffs in the 2024 NFL season when they host the Houston Texans on Saturday.
With a full week off, Kansas City has been able to rest and re-set before a run to try for a possible third straight Super Bowl title. After a season of some struggle in the connection between Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes and tight end Travis Kelce, the duo are now preparing to shine on the stage they’re the brightest: the playoffs.
Speaking to the media after a practice, Mahomes said that the presence of Kelce has been a boost to the rest of the Chiefs and they’re all locked in on the same mindset. ‘I think it just inspired the team, and I think he kind of has the heart of a champion,’ Mahomes said proudly.
‘I think that inspires everybody, and so when your leaders and your Hall of Fame guys are doing that, I mean, I think everybody knows that they gotta put it all on the line.’
Last season, despite the rough campaign, Mahomes still managed to throw for over 4,000 yards and earned a Pro Bowl nod.
This year was the first time in Mahomes’ career as a starter that he failed to surpass 4,000 yards in a season. He also missed out on a Pro Bowl selection for the first time since he was named the Chiefs starter in 2018.
Similar to Mahomes, Kelce had a slow start to the season. The 35-year-old finished with only 823 receiving yards – the lowest of his career, barring his rookie season. The three touchdowns he caught this year are also the least he’s ever had.
