Travis Kelce can add another accomplishment to his resum\u00e9!<\/p>\n

During the Kansas City Chiefs’ game against the Carolina Panthers in Charlotte, N.C., on Sunday, Nov. 24, the 35-year-old tight end caught a pass from quarterback Patrick Mahomes, resulting in a 19-yard reception. Kelce surpassed\u00a0Los Angeles Chargers\u00a0legend Antonio Gates to become the tight end with the third-most receiving yards in NFL history.<\/p>\n

Gates’ record is 11,841 receiving yards, and Kelce now has 11,854 yards.<\/p>\n

The only two NFL tight ends who hold more receiving yards than Kelce are Dallas Cowboys tight end Jason Witten with 13,046 yards and former Chiefs player Tony Gonzalez with 15,127 yards.<\/p>\n
