BREAKING NEWSTravis Kelce makes NFL history in front of Taylor Swift as he powers Chiefs to playoff win over Texans

A resurgent Travis Kelce etched his name into the NFL history books once again as the Kansas City Chiefs moved a step closer to a historic three-peat on Saturday night.

With girlfriend Taylor Swift watching on at Arrowhead, Kelce rolled back the years to inspire the Chiefs to a 23-14 Divisional playoff victory over the Houston Texans, which booked their place in the AFC Championship game for a seventh straight year.

The 35-year-old made a mockery of recent calls for him to retire after taking seven catches for 117 yards and a touchdown in one of his most successful outings of 2024.

And after reaching the 100-yard mark against Houston, Kelce set yet another all-time NFL record.

The legendary тιԍнт end has now recorded 100 or more receiving yards in nine postseason games over the course of his career, the most by any player in history.

He was previously tied in the all-time standings with former San Francisco 49ers receiver Jerry Rice on eight.

Kelce already holds various NFL records; including most consecutive and most overall seasons with 1,000 yards by a тιԍнт end (7), most receiving yards by a тιԍнт end in a single season (1,416) and most receptions by a тιԍнт end in their first 10 seasons (814).

Back in December, he also became the quickest тιԍнт end in history to reach 12,000 career receiving yards after doing so in 172 games, surpᴀssing the previous record held by Chiefs legend Tony Gonzalez (210 games).

Kelce looked back to his best as the Chiefs cruised past the Texans in their opening playoff game of the season.

Midway through the second quarter, the Kansas City icon proved he still has plenty left in the tank after skipping past a Houston defender for a huge 49-yard gain.

His strong start to the playoffs comes after he put up some of the lowest regular-season numbers of his NFL career, leading to suggestions that it could be time for him to hang up his cleats.

But as Swift cheered him on from her private suite, where she was joined by WNBA superstar Caitlin Clark, Kelce showed why he is still such an integral member of the Kansas City offense.
