Summary
Kansas City improved to 2-0 with a 33-30 win over Indianapolis as Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce set an NFL first for an older quarterback-tight end duo.
Mahomes threw for 300-plus yards and Kelce topped 100 receiving yards, making the Chiefs the first team to pair a 30-plus-year-old QB with a 35-plus-year-old TE at those marks in one game.
The two also connected for a touchdown, extending the early-season surge that has quickly restored Kansas City's Super Bowl credentials.
That production stands out because Mahomes is back from a long-term ACL injury and Kelce had faced questions about age-related decline entering the 2026 season.
