He was drafted by the Chiefs in the third round of the 2013 NFL Draft and later won Super Bowls LIV and LVII with the team, catching a touchdown in both wins.

During the 2022 season, Kelce became the fastest tight end to reach 10,000 career receiving yards, and he became the fifth tight end in NFL history to reach the milestone.[1] Kelce was named to the NFL 2010s All-Decade Team.[9][10]

He was placed on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on December 20, 2021.[119] He was activated on December 25, 2021.[120] However, due to NFL protocols for COVID-19, since he tested positive for the virus and did not test negative before the day of the game, he was ruled out for the Chiefs' week 16 game against the Steelers. It was the first game he'd missed due to injury or illness since his rookie season.[121] In the regular season-ending game against the Broncos, Kelce became the fastest tight end in NFL history to reach 9,000 career yards in just 127 games, a record also previously held by Gronkowski with 140 games.[122] He finished the season with 92 receptions for 1,125 receiving yards and nine touchdowns.

And now I think we're both at the point where we're riding with Ed 'Kell-see'".[6]
