Ed Kelce has a message for Travis Kelce critics.
Kelce, 74, took to social media to praise his youngest son’s play this season.
“If anyone is wondering how well Travis is playing, through Week 10 he is leading all tight ends in total yardage,” Kelce posted on Instagram.

The Kansas City Chiefs tight end was the NFL league leader among tight ends in total yards through Week 10, but fell to second after Week 12. Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride leads all tight ends in receptions (80) and yards (797).
Kelce is second in the NFL among tight ends with 674 yards, with Indianapolis Colts rookie Tyler Warren right behind him with 662 yards. The 36-year-old has enjoyed a resurgence for the Chiefs this season, as he has 54 catches and four touchdowns in addition to his 674 yards.
The 10-time Pro Bowler already has more touchdowns than last season and, despite his diminished athleticism, has been a reliable target for Patrick Mahomes.

The four-time All-Pro quickly put any retirement rumors to rest last season, as shortly after the team’s crushing Super Bowl loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, he announced his return. Last week, Kelce said he would let the Chiefs know his intention to play in 2026 before NFL free agency begins in March 2026 to give the team enough time to plan for its offseason.
Kelce had four catches for 43 yards in the Chiefs’ 23-20 win over the Colts on Sunday. The Chiefs improved to 6-5 with the win, but remain out of the playoffs.

The Chiefs need to heat up down the stretch if they want to make the playoffs, let alone win the division.
Their next game takes center stage, as they take on the Dallas Cowboys (5-5-1) on Thanksgiving at 4:30 p.m. ET.
