In just under an hour the Kansas City Chiefs will host the Las Vegas Raiders in a Black Friday showdown between AFC West rivals. While the Raiders are in the midst of a terrible season, Chiefs star tight end Travis Kelce knows his team can’t take their opponent lightly.
Speaking with older brother Jason Kelce on their “New Heights” podcast, Travis said, “This is the type of (expletive) that happens on Black Fridays! We gotta come (expletive) ready, and we’ve got to come (expletive) prepared.”
The future Hall of Fame tight end already seems locked in. Kelce showed up to the Black Friday game in an all-black sweatsuit – and looked to be matching star quarterback Patrick Mahomes.

“Pants are definitely something,” one fan said.
“Oh Travis, looking comfy today love the fit,” added another.
“That outfit is [fire emoji],” offered a third.
During his podcast this week the star tight end also spoke glowingly about Raiders rookie tight end Brock Bowers, who not only leads all rookies in receiving yards, but sits tied for ninth in the league – and fifth amongst players who have played just 11 games.
“As a rookie, that’s-I mean, he is one of the most accountable tight ends in the league right now. Guy in the pass game is absolutely killing it. He is just an all-around football player, I have heard great things about the big Bowers over there with the Raiders,” Kelce said.
On the season Bowers has six more receptions (74) than Kelce (68) for 175 more yards (744-569) and one more touchdown (three to two).
