Travis Kelce’s 49-yard catch and run sets up the Chiefs’ touchdown, a 13-3 lead

Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce may have lost a step, but he’s still capable of making big plays in big games.

Kelce did it in the second quarter today, with a 49-yard catch-and-run that took the Chiefs deep into Texas territory and set up a one-yard touchdown run by Kareem Hunt.

The extra point gave the Chiefs a 13-3 lead late in the second quarter, and they were rolling all over the Texans.

Before the Chiefs’ drive, the Texans attempted and missed a 55-yard field goal that prompted Houston to call an offsides penalty against Kansas City’s Justin Reid. But the flag didn’t come, and the Chiefs started their drive in good position before Patrick Mahomes’ big throw to Kelce.

The Chiefs were heavily favored in this game, and even though it’s still the second quarter, the Texans may be running out of opportunities to keep this game close.
