JUST NOW: Chiefs TE Travis Kelce Suffers Neck Dislocation During Training Ahead of New NFL Season

In a shocking development out of Kansas City, star tight end Travis Kelce has reportedly dislocated his neck during a high-intensity training session with the Chiefs, just weeks ahead of the NFL season kickoff.

INCIDENT DURING PRACTICE

According to insiders close to the team, the injury occurred during a routine red zone drill earlier this morning. Eyewitnesses say Kelce jumped to make a contested catch when he collided mid-air with a defensive back, landing awkwardly on his neck.

Medical staff rushed onto the field as practice was immediately halted. Kelce was placed in a neck brace and transported via stretcher to a nearby Kansas City hospital for urgent evaluation.

TEAM REACTS

The Chiefs organization released a short statement:

“Travis Kelce sustained a neck injury during today’s practice session. He is currently undergoing tests and receiving treatment. Further updates will be provided once available.”

Coach Andy Reid, visibly shaken, told reporters:

> “Travis is a warrior. We’re praying for a quick recovery, but right now, his health is the top priority.”

FANS IN SHOCK

Fans across the nation and especially in Kansas City took to social media, expressing heartbreak and concern. The hashtag #PrayForKelce began trending within minutes.

One fan posted:

> “This season won’t be the same without Kelce. Hoping it’s not as bad as it sounds.”

Another wrote:

> “He’s more than a player—he’s family to Kansas City. We need you back, 87!”

MEDICAL OUTLOOK

Neck dislocations are rare but serious. Recovery time can vary widely depending on the severity and whether nerve damage is involved. Some players return in weeks, while others face long-term rehab or even career-ending decisions.

AFFECTS ON CHIEFS’ SEASON?

Kelce, 35, is not only a team leader but one of the most dominant tight ends in NFL history. His presence on the field is critical to quarterback Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs’ offensive strategy.

If the injury is severe, the Chiefs may need to explore trade options, free-agent signings, or rely on backups such as Noah Gray or Blake Bell to fill the gap.
