Kelce "I wasn't at full strength last year"
http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap300...rength-in-2014
Travis Kelce became a revelation in 2014 and a cult figure for many Kansas City Chiefs fans. The tight end -- referred to by admirers as "Zeus" for his Greek-god-like physique and ability -- snagged 67 passes for 862 yards and five touchdown catches, leading the Chiefs in all three categories. Kelce told WKRK-FM in Cleveland on Thursday that he accomplished all that without being fully healthy. "Everybody last year thought I wasn't getting the reps I was supposed to at the beginning of the year but in reality I only had about a month before training camp where I was allowed to start running," he said, via Arrowheadpride.com. "If I went out there playing more snaps than I did, I mean who knows. I might not have been able to make it. My knee still wasn't full strength last year, which is why I'm excited about this year. Now I get the time to take a full offseason and get my legs ready and get my upper body and my explosiveness back that I know I really had. I didn't really feel that comfortable out there on the field but we made it work." If Kelce can turn in a performance that makes him the darling of the Fantasy Football world and earns him the nickname Zeus without being at full strength, well, hello 2015 thought his quotes were interesting. i know there was a lot of speculation here on why it took kelce so long to get his reps. alot of people thought health concerns, some thought blocking, playbook, reid being a dumbass etc. i'm excited to see what he can do with a full offseason. |
