Travis Kelce played a key role for the Kansas City Chiefs in their 23-14 Divisional Round win over the Houston Texans on Saturday. The All-Pro tight end caught seven passes for 117 yards and one touchdown as he helped lead the two-time defending champs to a victory against a determined Texans side.
More of the same will be expected from Kelce in the AFC Championship Game on Sunday. The Chiefs host Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills at Arrowhead Stadium for a spot in the Super Bowl with both teams leaving everything on the line for this do-or-die clash.
Kelce got the opportunity to talk about the upcoming matchup during Wednesday's episode of his "New Heights" podcast with his brother Jason Kelce. The Chiefs TE pointed out that they have "extra weapons on offense" and that he believes Kansas City is "a little bit healthier on the defensive side."
Be that as it may, Kelce is well aware of how dangerous the Bills are.
"The biggest thing for me is just going out there and playing my (expletive) tail off for these guys next to me," Kelce said.
"We're excited for that challenge to go up against these Bills. We know they match up very, very good with us. It's a very familiar matchup. We've seen these guys a lot. We've seen them a lot in the playoffs and in the regular season.
"That being said, it's going to be a dog fight."
It is clear from Kelce's strong message here that he is not underestimating anything -- especially against a team like Buffalo. The 10-time Pro Bowler knows what's at stake and he is aware that the Bills will do everything in their power to take them down come Sunday.
"Fire me up, baby," he said. "Best on the best. That's what I love."
