There’s three certainties in life: death, taxes, and Travis Kelce scoring a touchdown in the playoffs. The star tight end has the shortest odds to score a touchdown on Super Bowl Sunday, but the odds aren’t nearly tight enough to dissuade us from betting on Kelce.
Let’s check the latest Super Bowl picks, stats, injury reports, and Super Bowl odds. We’ve got plenty of Super Bowl lines for you to consider.
Travis Kelce Anytime TD Scorer (-135)
Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes are the Kansas City Chiefs offense. Plain and simple. The pair have connected 110 times for 1,338 yards and 12 touchdowns. Because of this success, Kelce ranks second in touchdowns, third in catches, and eighth in yards.
Kelce is the most dangerous receiver in this game on either side of the ball and has the best odds (+600) to score the first touchdown of the Super Bowl.
We’ll focus more on a less profitable but far more likely wager for Kelce to score a touchdown anytime. At -135 odds, the sportsbooks have him listed with the best chance to cross the goal line on Super Bowl Sunday.
So far, in two playoff games, Kelce has three touchdowns and 176 yards receiving on 21 catches. For those who may have forgotten, Kelce also dominated the playoffs last season with a touchdown in every game he played and at least 90 yards receiving.
In Kelce’s recent playoff career, he has scored 13 touchdowns in 11 games since 2019.
Kelce went through a dry patch to end the regular season, but the Chiefs were cruising. Now, with everything on the line, expect the Chiefs’ biggest weapon to step up and score a touchdown for the fifth playoff game in a row.
With two weeks to gameplan for the only matchups that matter, I expect Andy Reid to have expertly crafted a few red-zone plays specifically for Kelce to put points on the board. If history has taught us anything, Kelce and Mahomes won’t squander many, if any, of these opportunities.
