Travis Kelce hit a new milestone! Travis is celebrating today because he hit a huge career achievement with a 5 yard touchdown in Sundays game! The Kansas City Chiefs tight end scored his first touchdown of the season in the Chiefs 27 - 20 win over the Raiders in week eight. This was Travis Kelce's 75th touchdown in his eleven year career with the NFL.

''With the landmark TD grab at the 8:16 mark of the second quarter, Kelce became just the fifth tight end in NFL history to hit 75 receiving touchdowns and moved solely into fifth place for career TDs by a tight end, breaking a tie with Jason Witten. Kelce, who finished Sunday with 10 receptions for 90 yards, has a ways to go before he climbs up the TD ladder, as he trails No. 4 Jimmy Graham (89 touchdowns) by a substantial margin,'' according to the NFL.

Former Los Angeles Chargers tight end Antonio Gates is the all-time TE leader with 116 touchdowns. Tied with Jimmy Graham, Travis Kelce now has 94 touchdown catches to his merit, which is a commendable achievement. Even though it was a major milestone for Travis Kelce, this was also a welcomed score, as it broke a twelve game streak without Kelce making a touchdown thus far, for the football season.
