It has been a great year for Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce. The former Bearcat is the best tight end in the NFL and he broke Tony Gonzalez’s record of 102 receptions by finishing the season with 103. Gonzalez set the mark in 2004.
With that reception, TE Travis Kelce sets a new franchise record with 103 receptions, breaking the mark of 102 set by Tony Gonzalez (2004). Kelce also breaks the single-season mark for receiving yards by a TE, passing Rob Gronkowski's marks of 1,327 (2011)

He also briefly had the most yards in a single season for a few hours bypassing Rob Gronkowski’s 1,327 yards from 2011 with 1,336. Playing the early game he was ahead until the San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle finished the season with 1,377.
He currently has the most receptions by any Chiefs player during a single season and has the second most yards in a single season by a tight end.
Travis Kelce.
