Just before the season opener match of the Kansas City Chiefs against the Detroit Lions, Chiefs’ tight end, Travis Kelce suffered an injury. During one of his practice matches on 5 September, the Super Bowl champion hyperextended his knee. Due to this injury, he couldn’t play in the first match but was there to support his team during the match.

The team suffered a defeat in the absence of their usual offense. All eyes are on the second week now, the Lions will be playing against the freshly won team, the Jacksonville Jaguars. Amid all this, Kelce gave an update on his injury on the podcast with his brother. The tight ends’ comments were relieving to fans.

Travis Kelce is getting better

Recently, on ‘New Height’s Podcast’ Kelce talked about his injury with his brother Jason Kelce. The conversation sprung out from them talking about the defensive tackle, Chris Jones’ contract. From there Jason asked his brother if he had an update on his injury, to which the tight end had a positive reply.

Travis said that he has been feeling a lot better than he did in week 1. He said, “Things are looking up, I feel a lot better than I did last week, felt like an absolute a**h**e not being able to play that first game.” On being questioned why he felt like that he jokingly added that as previously he had made fun of Kevin Hart and Jason’s wife Kylie, it was karma from the show.

The player continued the joke and said that they were too old to do the things that they were doing. Furthermore, the 8x Pro Bowl hasn’t revealed anything about his relationship with the 12x Grammy award winner, Taylor Swift. Previously, the player did talk about his failed attempt at trying to share his number with the pop star. As for the game, we might or might not see him on-field in the second week.

Chances of Kelce playing in week 2

The tight end has surely made progress in his injury as revealed by him on his brother’s podcast, but he didn’t say anything about him playing in the second week. The head coach, Andy Reid talked about Kelce’s presence on-field on Wednesday.

Reid has revealed that the player is expected to be playing for the second match of the Chiefs. The player was seen for a light practice match on-field. But fans won’t know until the match if the tight end will be playing. The next match is not very far away as it’s on Sunday.

So, his injury is healing well with time, but to say anything about his relationship with the pop star might be too soon. Who knows, it might be just playful banter or maybe there’s something more cooking inside. Time will tell, what are your thoughts? Let us know in the comments below.
