On Wednesday, Kelce addressed his struggles this season during a recent episode of the New Heights podcast.
“You put in all this f—ing work and hope that it pays off, and right now, it’s just for whatever f—ing reason, man, it’s little things. I feel like I’ve always had the answers in years past. And this year, I just can’t find them.
“I keep thinking if I show up to work and I put in the work and I fix the issues through my practice habits and through perfecting the game plan and my fundamentals and what I’m being taught, and go out there and try and play my a– off for my guys next to me, it’s all going to come together like it has in years past. And this year it is just not, man.”
