Chiefs GM Brett Veach makes shock Travis Kelce revelation about Super Bowl loss to the Eagles
Travis Kelce was suffering from a ‘pretty big illness’ ahead of the Super Bowl, Chiefs General Manager Brett Veach has sensationally revealed.
Kelce struggled in New Orleans as Kansas City was badly beaten by the Philadelphia Eagles.
The tight end failed to make much impact on the game as the Chiefs’ hopes of a historic three-peat went up in smoke.
Kelce came under scrutiny for his performance and the Chiefs star even teased possible retirement following the loss.
But on Tuesday, Veach explained that the 35-year-old had been sick in the lead up to the game in New Orleans.
‘We’re never going to make excuses and talk about it but he was battling with a pretty big illness before the Super Bowl,’ he told NFL Network.
