Travis Kelce revealed Wednesday during the New Heights podcast that the Dallas Cowboys pressed him about his yearlong suspension in 2010 for testing positive for marijuana while interviewing him at the NFL Scouting Combine.
Kelce said he was a bit miffed by the line of questioning and essentially told the team they were free to go in a different direction at the draft, which they did:
New Heights @newheightshowYou can botch a combine interview and have it still work out … just ask <a href="https://twitter.com/tkelce?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@tkelce</a> <a href="https://t.co/akqvn76Odu">pic.twitter.com/akqvn76Odu</a>
It's worked out just fine for Kelce, who was drafted by the Kansas City Chiefs in 2013 and has gone on to win three Super Bowl titles, earn four first-team All-Pro honors and nine Pro Bowls selections in a Hall of Fame-worthy career.
