Travis Kelce has now scored more touchdowns than any other player in Kansas City Chiefs history after the 36-year-old reached the end zone in Sunday's clash against the Broncos.
The legendary tight end scored a 21-yard touchdown after connecting with quarterback Patrick Mahomes in the fourth quarter of their loss at Mile High.
It was Kelce's 84th touchdown for the Kansas City Chiefs - the most in franchise history. But fiancee Taylor Swift was not there to see it after she skipped the game in Denver. The pop sensation has yet to attend any of his road games this season.
Kelce, a future Hall of Famer, had been tied on 83 with former Kansas City running back Priest Holmes after scoring against the Commanders in Week 8.
His touchdown against the Broncos gave the Chiefs their first lead in a tense Sunday showdown in Denver.
On third and six, Mahomes found Kelce around 19 yards short of the line. The tight end managed to wrestle past safety Talanoa Hufanga before reaching the end zone.

Kelce celebrated wildly after his score gave Andy Reid's team a 19-16 lead with around 10 minutes left in the game.
But his night ended in disappointment after the Broncos battled back to secure a 22-19 win that takes them to 9-2 for the season.
Kelce, Mahomes and the Chiefs, meanwhile, sit third in the AFC West after falling to 5-5 for the campaign.
On the game's final play, Denver kicker Will Lutz sealed victory for the Broncos with a 35-yard field goal.
