Travis Kelce could move into top five on all-time receptions list
Travis Kelce is on the back nine of his NFL career and could very well be playing in his final season in 2025. Before he fades off into the sunset, however, he has a chance to further entrench himself into NFL history while helping the Kansas City Chiefs win another Super Bowl.
At the moment, Kelce’s 1,004 career receptions have him ranked 14th on the all-time catch list. Over the last four years, the tight end has averaged about 98 catches per season. If he maintains that in 2025, it’d thrust him into the top-five all-time, tying himself with Marvin Harrison at 1,102 catches. In the process, Kelce would be passing the likes of Isaac Bruce, Andre Johnson, Terrell Owens, Cris Carter, and other all-time greats.

Nikko Remigio
An undrafted free agent signee in 2023, Remigio – who spent his first season with the Chiefs on Injured Reserve – earned a spot on the practice squad last season before appearing in five games down the stretch.
He was an asset on special teams during that time, too, with 22 total kick and punt returns between Week 13 and the end of the regular season.
Prior to joining Kansas City, Remigio was a four-year contributor (largely as a return man) at the University of California before transferring to Fresno State for the 2022 campaign. He made the most of his fifth year, too, tallying career-bests in receptions (74), receiving yards (852) and receiving touchdowns (6). Remigio was also tied for the FBS lead with two punt return touchdowns.

Kansas City Chiefs: EDGE George Karlaftis
When the Kansas City Chiefs defense takes the field, three-time All-Pro Chris Jones garners most of the attention at the line of scrimmage. However, George Karlaftis has earned respect with 93 pressures and 24.5 sacks in three seasons.
After a 10.5-sack campaign in 2023, Karlaftis saw a slight drop-off in sack total with eight in the previous year, but he maintained an active presence in the pass rush, logging a career-high 37 pressures.
Karlaftis isn’t generating the same amount of buzz as fellow 2022 first-rounders Travon Walker and Aidan Hutchinson in terms of extension talks. That said, he’s taken some attention away from Jones as an effective three-down defender who can get to the quarterback and stop runs behind the line of scrimmage.
