With a rock-solid outing in the Kansas City Chiefs' latest win over the New York Jets in Week 9, star quarterback-tight end duo Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce set yet another NFL record.
Mahomes and Kelce connected four times for 72 yards in the Chiefs' sixth victory of the 2026 regular season, propelling them past former Los Angeles Chargers stars Philip Rivers and Antonio Gates in the league's record books.
Kansas City's prolific pair have now combined for 9,235 yards, achieving a high mark in league history at midseason.
Take a look at this breakdown of the record Mahomes and Kelce broke earlier today in this Twitter post from Emmy-Winning Sports Director Rob Collins of FOX 4 KC:
