Travis Kelce and Harrison Butker returning for the Chiefs is great news
While the Chiefs were able to destroy the Pittsburgh Steelers last weekend, things are going to be quite more difficult taking on the Bengals. With this game being played in Cincinnati as well, Bengals nation will hope to rattle Patrick Mahomes and Co.
Mahomes isn’t going to be fazed, though, and the fact that Kelce will be back ready to catch balls from him is only going to help the sensational signal-caller play even better. Not only that, but should the Chiefs fail to find the end zone a time or two after a long drive, Reid will have the confidence to send out Butker to drill field goals when his number is called.
As things stand, Kansas City is 11-4 on the year and the team holds the No. 1 seed in the AFC. Despite some struggles early on in the season, Kansas City looks ready to get back to the Super Bowl for the third consecutive campaign.
Kansas City will be ready to make quite a statement come Sunday against the Bengals. Kelce and Butker will be ready to have a say in things.
