Add another accolade to the storied career of Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.

With a 12-yard receiving touchdown in the fourth quarter of Wednesday's game against the Steelers, Kelce surpassed Hall of Fame tight end Tony Gonzalez for the most receiving touchdowns in franchise history with 77.

Kelce is now the franchise leader in receptions, yards and touchdowns.

Kelce is the NFL's leader in postseason receptions and needs just four more postseason touchdowns to pass Jerry Rice for the most playoff touchdowns in NFL history.

With a victory over the Steelers on Wednesday, Kansas City would clinch the No. 1 seed in the AFC and give itself a first-round bye.
