in the Week 2 loss to the Eagles and has experienced only a modest start to 2025. Through two games, Kelce has six catches on 10 targets for 108 yards and a touchdown, a better showing than his early-season performances from last year but still a far cry from his historically productive campaigns."I know he wants to be out there at the end of the day, he wants have the chance to make the plays happen, and he's made the plays happen for years," Mahomes said.
