“We got some wacky stuff in the playbook now”: Travis Kelce believes the Kansas City Chiefs will be even scarier in 2021

Travis Kelce recently appeared on The Rich Eisen Show, and Eisen asked him how the Chiefs can even improve at this point since they have already become one of the most dominant offensive units football has ever seen.

“I think coach Reid does an unbelievable job, every single year — year-in, year-out — of creating a playbook that we can grow in,” Kelce said on the Aug. 26 episode. “So, it’s not the same stuff that we’ve been throwing out there so we can get schemed up, and it makes our job harder, he’s putting in new stuff; he’s putting in things that are gonna make our jobs that much easier out there on the field and put us in a position to have success. And when we rep all of these plays in practice, we find ways to have success versus various coverages, and I think that’s where I really grow every single year.”

OK, but what about some of these new plays?

“We got some wacky stuff in the playbook now,” he said. “We got some gadget stuff that you wouldn’t even think would be on a football field. But it’s fun, man. … I feel like with Mahomes, it (the playbook) expanded even more. So, three, four years ago, whenever Pat got here, everything started to expand. And even Alex [Smith’s] last year it started to expand downfield with the players that we had, with Tyreek Hill and all of the speed we had.”
