Travis Kelce just ticked off some more history.

Quarterback Patrick Mahomes found the Chiefs' tight end for a 10-yard touchdown pass late in the third quarter of Kansas City's matchup with the Commanders on Monday night. With the score, Kelce clinched a few pieces of history.

The catch marked Kelce's 100th touchdown reception during his career if you include the regular season and the playoffs. In hitting that mark, he became the fourth tight end in NFL history to reach 100 touchdown receptions. The others are Antonio Gates (118), Tony Gonzalez (115), and Rob Gronkowski (107).

In addition to that, the touchdown was Kelce's 83rd during the regular season in his career, tying him with Priest Holmes as the Chiefs' all-time leader. He needs one more to take sole possession of first place.
