The Chiefs have decided to keep Travis Kelce on the sidelines for tonight’s season-opening game against the Detroit Lions. The decision came just hours after Kelce worked out with trainers to test the knee and the pain level involved. Kelce suffered a bone bruise/hyperextension during Tuesday’s practice but the injury is not said to be a long-term issue. Sources: #Chiefs star TE Travis Kelce is out tonight against the #Lions. He may give it another try before kickoff. Either way, the bone bruise should not keep him out long-term. pic.twitter.com/n2TZXBmZUS— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) September 7, 2023 The Chiefs next game is September 17th against the Jaguars and it would be very likely Kelce returns by that time.
