Travis Kelce’s 2025 season didn’t get off to the start he wanted. The Chiefs fell to 0-1 on the year with a loss to the Chargers in Brazil and while the star tight end caught a touchdown in the loss, he also injured teammate Xavier Worthy in a big collision on a mesh concept over the middle of the field early in the game.
Worthy will miss some time with a dislocated shoulder due to the collision, and Kelce addressed the incident on the latest episode of the New Heights podcast on Wednesday, taking responsibility for not getting the right depth on his route and saying he “felt like shit” afterwards for injuring Worthy and taking a big part of the Chiefs’ game plan out of action.
“I’m supposed to be running my route at depth for Worthy. So, it’s frustrating for me. I was trying to kind of set up my guy to be able to get in position and it all just happened pretty quick,” Kelce said. “I just got to be better, man. I’m 13 years into the league. There’s no excuse for me running into my own guys like that and being able to play fast and help him out. Worthy had his guy beat and we’re out the gate and that game starts completely different. Instead, I’m not sure where he is exactly in terms of health-wise, but I’m hoping that we get him back as fast as possible because he means so much to this team.
