How all 32 NFL teams rank at the tight end position in 2019 | SB Nation
4. Kansas City Chiefs
Primary tight ends: Travis Kelce, Blake Bell, David Wells
Like the 49ers, the Chiefs are mostly a one-man show — but it’s one hell of a show. Kelce proved a perfect complement to Patrick Mahomes’ improvisation-heavy style, using his athleticism to post career bests in receptions (103), receiving yards (1,336), and touchdowns (10). Wells and Bellhave 30 career NFL catches between them, but they’ll each get the opportunity to add to that total now that Demetrius Harris has left Missouri for a spot in our No. 6 TE rotation.
“I’m coming to win. That’s my key word — win. That’s what I go by ... It’s not about winning a game. It’s about winning against everything that was against me. I just work with that positive energy and positive mindset.”
