The Kansas City Chiefs are the team that everyone is trying to catch up to. They’ve won two straight Super Bowl titles and have a bullseye on their back.
That comes with the territory and they are used to it. That’s what happens when you have the best quarterback-head coach duo in Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid.
Add in superstar tight end Travis Kelce and you’re cooking. Training camp is kicking off around the league and the Chiefs are in the facility, as rookies and quarterbacks reported on July 16. Kelce has already made an impact on a rookie playmaker this offseason.

This past NFL draft, the Chiefs selected tight end Jared Wiley in the fourth round. Although Kelce isn’t at training camp yet, he’s already made an impact on Wiley through OTAs and minicamp.
The 23-year-old spoke with reporters on Thursday and discussed how the nine-time Pro Bowler has helped him.
“You can pick up a lot just from his knowledge of the game, whether it’s of our offense. Obviously, he’s been in it for a while. Just knowing what the defense is going to do and how he can kind of manipulate his routes, or change what he’s doing, to make them think that he’s doing something else, that’d be the biggest thing that I’d say that I’ve looked at so far.”

Kelce is one of the best tight ends in NFL history so any knowledge that he has is beyond helpful and Wiley is taking notes.
