    Chiefs' Andy Reid: Travis Kelce 'Hasn't Lost a Step'

    The Kansas City Chiefs are one of the few remaining undefeated teams in the NFL, but their superstar tight end has not been as involved as most thought he would be.

    But in a recent interview, Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said that there is no need to worry about Travis Kelce, and that he will get it going soon.

    "I know people are saying that he's old or that he has distractions, but defenses don't think that," Reid said. "Trav is fine. He just keeps being Trav. He works his tail off. He hasn't lost a step. He's not distracted. (Some of these defenses) are making sure he's taken care of."

    The 34-year-old superstar has just 69 receiving yards on eight catches so far this season, and he has also not scored a touchdown. But Reid says that it is because opposing defenses are focusing on taking him away.

    Kelce is one of, if not the best receiving tight end in the history of the NFL, so it is in the best interests of the Chiefs' opponents to send a double-team or two his way.

    The future Hall of Famer will be looking to bounce back when he and the rest of the Chiefs take on the rival Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday.
