Deion Sanders is impressed by what he’s seen from Travis Kelce so far this afternoon.
Kelce kicked off Sunday’s AFC Championship matchup against the Ravens with a touchdown grab on the Chiefs’ first offensive drive. At halftime, the superstar tight end has nine catches for 96 yards and a TD.
Kelce also broke Jerry Rice’s all-time playoff receptions record before the halftime break.
Kelce’s touchdown score gave the Chiefs a 7-0 lead in the first quarter. Lamar Jackson and the Ravens responded with a game-tying touchdown pass to rookie wide receiver Zay Flowers on the following drive.
The Chiefs then mounted another touchdown drive finished off by running back Isiah Pacheco, retaking the lead at 14-7. Harrison Butker knocked through a field goal just before the halftime break, moving the lead to 17-7.
Kelce will look to build off his incredible first-half stat line in the final two quarters.
