Kelce caught two of three targets for 24 yards in Sunday's win over the Saints.
Kelce snagged at least five passes in each of the four games prior to Kansas City's bye, but he has caught just five passes total in the two games since. What gives? It isn't as though he's fallen out of favor with quarterback Alex Smith. It seems the Chiefs as a team are throwing the ball a lot less, opting to ride the hot hand in Spencer Ware, who leads a deep stable. Alex Smith has attempted about half as many passes per game since the bye, 42 before to 23 after. Kelce is still a quality start because he remains a top red-zone threat, but don't be surprised if delivers a few duds as the ball simply aren't flying in Kansas City.
