00:00Let's first start with Travis Kelsey. Where are you guys at around the Chiefs legendary tight end future first ballot Hall of Famer and
00:07Whether or not his career is done or perhaps we'll see Travis out there again next season
00:12I think he's done. I watched the tape and watching his blocking ability watching the route running watching
00:18You know not the drops. It was a couple of bad passes, but just a lack of effort
00:23I want to say in terms of the super bowl. I think he's at the end of the rope
00:27I mean, you know, he's had a story career definite Hall of Famer best modern day tight end that we have seen
00:35in the nfl and the
00:37Just the ability to step up in big games second to none
00:40But I think now he's putting his team at a detriment, you know, they need a younger player
00:45Can he come on potentially in terms of a role type of situation? It's possible
00:49But having them out there on each and every down. I think they're at a disadvantage right now
00:55Could he play again next year? Absolutely. Would the chiefs want him to come back? Absolutely as a team leader
00:59But you have to understand this 36 years old during next year's nfl season. I believe it's very early in the season
01:05He turns 36
01:06You see the amount of abuse that tight ends take just playing three to four years in the nfl let alone over a decade
01:12Multiple super bowl champions championships, excuse me yards catches touchdown
01:17He just about leads in every single statistic for tight ends that you could ask for at this point
01:21And also you sit back and you say to yourself, well, what's he going to do with himself in the future?
01:26I don't know marry taylor swift, you know, and then go out and get himself a job with a national product like an amazon or a
01:33Prime or a nbc or a fox and oh, yeah
01:36My podcast is worth like a hundred million dollars like you can live the perfect life and still walk away from it
01:41Relatively unscathed with injury. I just don't see the need for him to come back. It's like boy, you know what?
01:46I love the locker room, which is one thing. I love the spotlight
01:48Yes, they do. But what more do you have to accomplish? Most guys come back. You're like boy
01:52I just want a ring shake. Yeah, he already has the rings
01:55Yeah, I think the tough thing for travis is we know the performances are trending down
01:59I think somewhat due to the fact that he doesn't play quarterback
02:01We actually acknowledge his performances are trending down instead of the other guy if you look at it this year
02:07You know this season he caught 97 passes of guys to catch at least 80 passes
02:11There was 22 of them in the nfl. He had the second worst yards per reception wandell robinson shout out
02:17The the stream merchant. Oh, yes
02:20That guy had some quicks. Um, you want if you want to laugh quickly, uh, kelsey was at 8.5
02:26Wandell 7.5 kids. Hey, everybody else is like basically 10 or better. It's it's a little crazy, but shout out wandell robinson. I
02:35I did not think the result of the game was going to impact his decision
02:39No, I didn't because to me it was about
02:42I'm feeling good
02:44And I want to get the postseason triple crown all time, which he could get, you know, trying to pass jerry rice
02:50but
02:52now
02:53The way that game felt I do feel like the game was going to impact him
02:57But I still can't figure out which way where you know what? I can't go out like that. I gotta play again or
03:03Yeah, i'm done
03:04I'm not doing this again. It's not worth it. I've done everything I could possibly do
03:08and
03:09that was so
03:11Upsetting and here's the thing about kelsey and i'm not trying to to rag on the guy but
03:16Suma holmes did get criticized for the performance
03:19Right as did travis kelsey like nobody talked about whether like I mean hopkins was bad, right?
03:25But we talked about the quarterback
03:27Kelsey was very bad in that football game
03:29And looked like he quit in the middle of the game as much as anybody on that chiefs team
03:33which I think is one of the more
03:35Fascinating things about what that says for him moving forward. I've heard people talk about this
03:39You know, he and his brother jason do the podcast and one of the reasons why like jason is so thrown off
03:44I think one of the reasons jason kelsey donnie is so thrown off by the game
03:48Is he watched his brother be?
03:52Terrible in that football game like it wasn't as if it was a really good game
03:56Congrats to philadelphia his brother played one of the worst games of his life and the middle of it looked like he was quitting
04:01Yes, and it was not like, you know
04:03Kellen winslow way back in the day being carried off the field at the orange like man
04:06He gave it his all and he was dominant out there
04:08You did watch some of those replay tapes on the all 22s and joe quite frankly wasn't getting out of his stand
04:14Wasn't open look like the effort wasn't there look like like during the game when the miked up sessions was that energy wasn't there
04:20It's almost like he was resigned to the fact like this is my last ride boy
04:23I hope it goes well if it does i'll ride that way
04:25But boy if we're getting collapsed in the first half, you know
04:27I just can't wait till this game is over and I can get out of here when you start breaking down in terms of
04:32Run-blocking and you're now allowing other players to get leveled because you can't make it from point a to point b
04:39That's a problem. It's one thing to drop passes. It's one thing not to get open, but when you start being
04:44A deficit in terms of that offense. That's a problem
