Star tight end Travis Kelce was injured in the first quarter of the Kansas City Chiefs' Week 10 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
Kelce — who had already been dealing with an ankle injury — took a hard hit to his lower body after a 23-yard reception on Kansas City's first drive, and could be seen hobbling to the sideline and grimacing in pain.
While his exact status is still unclear, Kelce was spotted walking to the Chiefs' locker room shortly after the play, indicating that this latest injury may be cause for concern as Kansas City looks ahead to the second part of its 2026 regular season campaign.

Backup pass-catcher Jared Wiley was also seen taking a cart to the locker room, so the Chiefs' depth at the tight end position is something that fans should monitor throughout the rest of Kansas City's Week 10 tilt with the Falcons.
