Overview
- The Chiefs opened with several drives without a single target to Travis Kelce in Buffalo, an uncommon start for the All-Pro tight end.
- Early passing production, about 50 yards at that stage, went solely to Rashee Rice and rookie Xavier Worthy, according to in-game reports.
- With no team update during the first half, fans on X questioned his usage and floated injury theories that remain unconfirmed.
- Late in the second quarter, Kelce recorded his first reception, a 20-yard gain that marked his initial involvement in the passing game.
- He entered Week 9 leading Kansas City with 474 receiving yards and three touchdowns, highlighting how unusual the quiet opening was.
