Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs have finally put an end to their two-game slump, defeating the New York Jets 35-12 in Week 9. The team improved to 6-2 on the season with the victory.

Patrick Mahomes led the way for Kansas City with 242 passing yards and two touchdowns on 23-of-31 passing. Furthermore, running back Kenneth Walker III recorded 102 rushing yards and one touchdown on the ground, along with 41 receiving yards and two touchdowns through the air.

Kelce, for his part, led the team in receptions with four catches for 72 yards. While he didn’t score a TD, he made history with Mahomes by breaking the “NFL record for the most combined passing and receiving yards by a QB/TE duo.” The two have now connected for 9,365 yards.
