See the Awkward 🤯 Nickname Patrick Mahomes gave to Travis Kelce after season-best performance in NFL playoff win

Published

on

 

Travis Kelce earned himself the perfect moniker from Patrick Mahomes following his explosive performance against the Houston Texans Saturday.

The Kansas City Chiefs kept their bid for an unprecedented third straight Super Bowl alive with a 23-14 victory over the Houston Texans in the NFL Divisional Round thanks to a standout game from Kelce on Saturday.

With girlfriend Taylor Swift watching on from the stands, the tight end led the Chiefs with 117 yards and one touchdown from seven receptions, marking a season high.

After Kelce turned back the clock with his clutch postseason performance, Mahomes praised his teammate, honoring him with a fitting new nickname.

‘Big-time players make big-time plays in big-time games. … This is Playoff Trav,’ Mahomes said after the game.

‘He’s a leader, man. This is what he lives for, is playing in these moments, having the chance to make big-time plays. He goes out there and does that, and it seems like he does it in every single playoff game.’

 

The 35-year-old made a mockery of recent calls for him to retire with his second 100-yard game of the season.

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

The legendary tight 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 games.

Kelce already holds numerous NFL records; including most consecutive and most overall seasons with 1,000 yards by a tight end (7), most receiving yards by a tight end in a single season (1,416), most receptions by a tight end in their first 10 seasons (814), and most receptions (172) and receiving touchdowns (22) in the playoffs.

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

Playoff Trav and the Chiefs will look to keep their Super Bowl hopes alive next weekend when they take on the winner of Sunday’s game between the Buffalo Bills and the Baltimore Ravens in the AFC Championship game.

The showdown will mark the seventh straight year that the Chiefs have competed in the AFC Championship game.
