|---|---|---|---|
| Sep 3, 2013 | NFL | Knee Patella Fracture | Kelce had arthroscopic surgery on his bothersome knee, which revealed a cartilage issue that led to a microfracture procedure. He missed all but 1 play of 2013 but didn't lose another game to the knee. Original injury deemed a bone bruise. |
| Oct 19, 2014 | NFL | Chest Rib Sprain/Pull Unspecified | Kelce sustained a rib injury but played through it. HC Andy Reid called it a sore rib "mostly up in the cartilage area." |
| Aug 31, 2015 | NFL | Pedal Ankle Sprain/Pull Unspecified Grade 1 | Kelce suffered an ankle sprain in a preseason practice. He sat out the 4th preseason contest, though HC Andy Reid said he would have played if it were a regular-season game. Kelce returned for Week 1. |
| Oct 8, 2017 | NFL | Head Cranial Concussion Grade 1 | Kelce suffered a concussion against the Texans. He was initially cleared to return to the game but showed some short-term memory loss at halftime. Kelce cleared the protocol in time to play the following week. |

Travis Kelce's Preseason Player AnalysisKelce turns 33 in October and averaged a career-low 8.4 yards per target last season. It’s safe to say he’s past his peak.
But he still ranked top 9 among 35 qualifying TEs in yards per target, yards per route and Pro Football Focus receiving grade last year. And, most importantly, he has a chance to set a career high in targets this season with WR Tyreek Hill gone.
Kelce easily projects as the #1 TE across scoring formats for 2022 and is worth considering near the end of the 1st round of fantasy drafts. He’s a strong pick anywhere in Round 2.
