Nick Wright sends AFC contenders word of caution after Travis Kelce puts his foot down on accusations of sabotage

NFL analyst and Kansas City Chiefs fan Nick Wright was fired up after Travis Kelce said he's not afraid of anyone. Kelce and the Chiefs were accused of purposely losing to the Denver Broncos so the Cincinnati Bengals wouldn't make the playoffs.

Speaking on his podcast, Kelce said the Chiefs aren't afraid of anyone and know they will beat whoever they play. After the star tight end comments, Wright spoke on "First Things First" and sent the AFC a warning.

“That is so great. He’s saying let’s just forget seeding," Wright said. "Give us Baltimore and then Buffalo because they’re only going to play one of them. That’s the funnier version of Mahomes, a few hours after suffering the high ankle sprain in the playoffs two years ago. His dad asked him who do you want to win."

"And he said well, we match up better against Buffalo but I want Cincinnati because they’ve been talking so much," Wright added. "I’m telling everyone. These might be his final three games in his NFL. It’s certainly on the board. You’re about to see a throwback, peak Travis Kelce performance."

Wright was pleased with Kelce's comments as the analyst believes the tight end will dominate the playoffs en route to a third-straight Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl.

Kelce has caught 97 passes for 823 receiving yards and three touchdowns this season. It marked the second-straight year he failed to record 1000+ receiving yards after seven straight years of accomplishing the feat.

Travis Kelce says the Kansas City Chiefs will be well-prepared for whoever they face in the playoffs. The Chiefs are the No. 1 seed and have the bye, but Kelce says he'd prefer to play the hardest teams so KC can prove how good they are.

"I ain't scared of (expletive) nobody," Travis Kelce said on the New Heights Podcast, via TheScore. "I wanted them in the (expletive) playoffs. I want to slay every dragon one by one, like Mortal Kombat. I don't even want this to be like we play the lowest seed. Just give me the best teams.

"AFC, NFC, give me all of them, Mortal Kombat style. I'll go through every (expletive) one of 'em, just giving them my best (expletive) effort. I ain't scared of a single soul, man."

The Chiefs finished the year with a 15-2 record.
