A day after a helmet-to-helmet hit left him wobbly and concussed, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce received a positive prognosis from his coach.
Speaking to reporters Sunday, Chiefs coach Andy Reid said that Kelce had improved after absorbing the second-quarter blast from Tennessee Titans safety Johnathan Cyprien. The hit knocked Kelce out of the game Saturday.
“He seems good,” Reid said. “He probably would have been all right for the upcoming week.”
Kelce was diagnosed with a concussion as a result of the hit, which did not draw a flag. He needed the aid of teammate Albert Wilson to stand, and his steps were unsteady before he leaned into the arms of lineman Mitchell Schwartz to keep his balance.
