Among his 29 targets, he has caught 24 of them for 288 yards and two touchdowns.\u00a0 However, Mahomes expects a\u00a0change soon:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Mahomes predicted that defenses will eventually work harder to contain Rice, at which point Kelce will \u201ceat\u201d in more one-on-one matchups. He also praised his longtime tight end for affecting the game however he can despite not receiving his usual target share.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou just want to win at the end of the day. He\u2019s doing a great job of being a leader on the team, playing hard, doing whatever he can to make an impact in the game,\u201d Mahomes said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201cWhen you do that in this league, usually good things come, and I\u2019m excited for him to go out there and make an impact receiving the ball as well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Andy Reid\u00a0also insisted that Kelce will be\u00a0\u201cfine,\u201d\u00a0and the All-Pro echoed Mahomes\u2019 points about putting the team during his\u00a0New Heights\u00a0podcast.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m not getting caught up in getting the targets and all that,\u201d Kelce said. \u201cI just want to have a successful offense. And I think Pat\u2019s doing a great job of finding the open guy and making the right decisions right now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It will be interesting to see how long\/when Mahomes is able to get Kelce involved.\u00a0 These are Kansas City\u2019s next five games:<span id=\"ezoic-pub-ad-placeholder-178\" class=\"ezoic-adpicker-ad\"><\/span><span id=\"div-gpt-ad-gridironheroics_com-banner-1-0\" class=\"ezoic-ad\" data-google-query-id=\"CJK4g4aE4ogDFSyI6QUdNDgZQg\"><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Kansas City Chiefs are going into their week four matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers with eyes on going 4-0.\u00a0 Los Angeles is looking to get&#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":4567,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4544","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nfl"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Chiefs\u2019 Patrick Mahomes Releases Statement Ahead Of Week 4 Matchup Vs.
