Here’s why the Chiefs’ record-setting tight end may struggle to hit his numbers vs. the Eagles.
In the AFC championship game, Kansas City tight end Travis Kelce climbed into second place all-time in NFL postseason receiving yards (1,467), moving ahead of Rob Gronkowski (1,389) and Julian Edelman (1,442). Arguably the best tight end to ever play the game, Kelce only trails Hall of Fame wideout Jerry Rice (2,245) for the most receiving yards in NFL playoff history.

PHOENIX — Normally when someone holding power fires someone without it, the moment is no less jarring in the NFL than it is in business. There’s often a wall of hard feelings and even bitterness that instantly goes up and is cemented by the breakup.

LeBron James broke the NBA all-time scoring record on Tuesday night. While most of the basketball world was bowing to The King’s latest feat, Enes Kanter Freedom took a different approach with his reaction to the moment.
