Is Travis Kelce playing? Chiefs star tight end has quiet game in Week 2 vs. Bengals

Travis Kelce has made a career out of consistent high-level play at the tight end position for the Chiefs.

However, Kansas City's star hasn't been as productive as he usually is to begin the 2024 season. In Week 2 vs. the Bengals, Kelce's name wasn't mentioned very often as the Chiefs won 26-25 to start their season 2-0.

Here's what to know regarding Kelce's status vs. Cincinnati in Week 2 and his numbers from the matchup.

Did Travis Kelce play in Week 2 vs. the Bengals?

Yes, Kelce played for the Chiefs against the Bengals in Week 2.

It took him until the end of the first half to make his first catch, but Kelce remained on the field as a big-time target for Patrick Mahomes. It isn't very easy to contain Kelce, one of the game's best tight ends, so even if his numbers weren't eye-popping this week, he'll likely be a big piece for his team moving forward.

Is Travis Kelce injured?

No, Kelce is not injured.

He wasn't very involved in the Chiefs' offense, but there were no indications that Kelce is currently dealing with an injury.
