Mics Caught Travis Kelce Giving Some Thoughtful Advice to a Chargers Rookie

The Chiefs’ star tight end needs to be mic’d up more often.

Travis Kelce lit up the Chargers in Week 7 with 12 catches, 179 yards, and a touchdown in the Chiefs' big win at home. 

After the game, he could be heard giving some really good advice to a Chargers rookie, and NFL fans rightfully loved it. 

Los Angeles defensive end Scott Matlock approached Kelce moments after the final whistle and asked the Chiefs’ star tight end if he had any advice for a first-year player in the NFL. Kelce gave it some thought before sharing a really good message that Matlock seemed to take to heart.
