One pointed to Cincinnati Bengals QB Joe Burrow\u2019s bleached blonde look to open the season. Another pointed to late rock singer, Meatloaf. Kelce, of course, is no stranger to exploring new looks.<\/p>\n<div id=\"qcmgidgb3\"><\/div>\n<p>His look to enter this season\u00a0\u2013 featuring a fade and a mustache \u2013 turned heads.<\/p>\n<p>It became a national story as The New York Times published an article in January calling the haircut \u201cThe Travis Kelce\u201d even though it has long been a staple of the black community.<\/p>\n<h3>Travis Kelce: \u2018I\u2019m My Own Worst Critic\u2019<\/h3>\n<p>Kelce\u2019s physical appearance has also been a football-related story this season. ESPN analyst Todd McShay\u00a0called the All-Pro tight end out\u00a0for not being in shape. McShay pointed to Kelce\u2019s relationship with pop icon Taylor Swift and his many off-the-field obligations.<\/p>\n<p>The analyst said Kelce looked like a different player than just two seasons ago. He did say the tight end would work his way into form.<\/p>\n<p>But Kelce insists he is still the same player.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re always constantly\u00a0working to get better here, and that\u2019s just \u2013 that\u2019s always been my focus,\u201d Kelce told reporters on September 27. \u201cI think this year, stats may say something different. But at the same time, you still see the same person inside this building, and that\u2019s all I really care I care about. I\u2019m my own worst critic. Everything outside of this building is just noise.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kelce is on pace to finish the 2024 campaign with his fewest receptions, yards per reception, and total yards since his rookie season when he played one snap. That snap came on special teams.<\/p>\n<p>The nine-time Pro Bowler knows that the criticism comes as a result of his consistent production.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m fortunate I\u2019ve had the success in the past,\u201d Kelce said. \u201cI realize that the ball can\u2019t always go to one person. It can\u2019t always get in my hands. But at the same time, I got all the rust in 1-5 [Mahomes] to make the right decision, and he\u2019s been making great decisions. We might not be putting up as much points as we want to. But at the same time, we\u2019re 3-0, and we\u2019re doing something right.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Chiefs\u2019 three opponents so far \u2013 the\u00a0Atlanta Falcons,\u00a0Baltimore Ravens, and\u00a0Cincinnati Bengals\u00a0\u2013 are a combined 2-7 on the season. KC next faces the 2-1\u00a0New Orleans Saints\u00a0before heading into the bye week with a real chance at being undefeated.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chiefs star Patrick Mahomes will have to count teammate Travis Kelce out of his potential plans for a makeover. &nbsp;
