After the Denver Broncos<\/a>‘ 20-13 win over the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 17, it was a bittersweet time for Chiefs legendary tight end Travis Kelce, who very well could have played his last snap at Arrowhead Stadium against Denver.<\/p>\n After the game, many Broncos<\/a> players took the opportunity to embrace Kelce, who has long been a thorn in the side of Denver and 30 other franchises around the NFL.<\/p>\n Kelce took the opportunity to seek out Broncos<\/a> quarterback Bo Nix after the TNF win, and he had a message for the second-year starter.<\/p>\n “Bo, what’s up baby,” said Kelce, as he dapped up Nix. “You’re a hell of a competitor, man. Love playing against you, every single time, dog. Do your thing, baby, alright? Go get you one (a Super Bowl), man.”<\/p>\n Nix embraced Kelce and expressed gratitude for the message. “I appreciate it, man,” said Nix to Kelce. Kelce has a documented respect<\/a> for Nix dating back to 2024, when Nix and the Broncos<\/a> very nearly stole a win in Arrowhead, if not for a blocked field goal.<\/p>\n Need a news break?
