Chiefs HC Andy Reid on Travis Kelce critics: 'I really don't care what anybody thinks'

The criticism of Travis Kelce dominated the headlines leading up to the Kansas City Chiefs’ Week 4 matchup with the Los Angeles Chargers. The star tight end essentially shut down those negative reviews of the start of his season with a vintage performance on Sunday.

Chiefs head coach Andy Reid spoke to the media following Sunday’s victory, praising Kelce’s best game of the season.

“Kelce did a nice job of just getting in windows. And then when they did play, man, he was able to do a nice job there,” said Reid. “It wasn’t as much double team as maybe seen or settling on him as much as he’s seen. So he did very good.”

He finished the game with seven catches for 90 yards to lead the team. The veteran took advantage of how he was being defended this week, and his head coach once again defended his performance.

“I really don’t care what anybody thinks. I watch what the defense does and how they respect him, so I take it off of that,” said Reid. “I watch Trav every day, so I get to see him and how he works. He never wants to come out and practice the game; he’s all in all the time. I don’t worry about all that.”

Kelce made big plays and is poised to continue pushing his team into the weekly win column.
