The Kansas City Chiefs are getting the band back together, following a major announcement from tight end Travis Kelce.
After a Super Bowl loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, Kelce announced his return to the Chiefs for his 13th season in the NFL.
Upon the release of the news, Chiefs star defensive tackle Chris Jones posted a message about the return of Kelce.
“I needed my dawg for this one,” Jones said.
Jones and Kelce have established themselves as legends in Kansas City, helping the Chiefs win three Super Bowls over the past six years.
Jones is widely regarded as one of the best defensive tackles in the NFL. He’s spent the last nine years with the Chiefs, posting two interceptions, three fumble recoveries, 13 forced fumbles, 80.5 sacks and 310 tackles.
Last season, Jones recorded one forced fumble, five sacks and 37 tackles.

Kelce has also been viewed as one of the biggest stars in the NFL over the past decade. Throughout his 12-year career, Kelce has been named a four-time All-Pro, 10-time Pro Bowler and three-time Super Bowl champion.
Last season, Kelce recorded three touchdowns and 823 yards on 97 receptions. In the Chiefs’ final game of the season, a 40-22 blowout loss to the Eagles in the Super Bowl, Kelce posted four receptions and 39 yards.
