Travis Kelce has arrived at the Allegiant Stadium for his Kansas City Chiefs team's must-win game against the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday.
Kelce, 34, was wearing sunglasses and a multi-colored cardigan with a sunset emblazoned around it. He didn't address the camera as he walked by, instead staring out across the field and taking in the calm before the storm.
The tight end is looking to bounce back after a subpar showing against his brother Jason and the Philadelphia Eagles on November 20.
And while their record for the season will be winning one regardless of today's score, Kelce and his team - who won the Super Bowl last season - need to show a reverse in the current trend of form.
Kelce logged seven receptions and a touchdown for 44 yards in the 21-17 loss. The significant drop left both Kelce and Chiefs fans unhappy.

On Wednesday, Kelce reflected on his poor performance on the New Heights Podcast. A very monotonous and frustrated Kelce talked to his brother about how he 'f***** over' his team with a fumble.
'We didn't score in the second half, Jason,' Travis told his older brother. 'We haven't scored in the second half in like four or five games. We should fix that, and it starts with my dumbass holding on to the f***** ball.'
Jason tried to encourage Travis by pointing out the positives he saw as an opposing player. However, Travis continued to be hard on himself, taking blame for his team's loss.
'My turnover, turnovers are killing us,' Kelce added. 'Penalties are absolutely killing us. I had one of both, and a drop, and a fumble. I'm not playing my best football right now, and it's pissing me off every f***** time I'm out there. But as a unit, we're still together. And that's all that f***** matters.'
As expected, fans jokingly brought Kelce's girlfriend Taylor Swift into the conversation. While blaming Swift for Kelce's poor performances is unreasonable, the numbers since they started dating are noteworthy.
Kelce averages 108 yards per game with Swift in attendance. The average drops significantly to 41.8 yards without Swift in the stands.
Swift won't be there on Sunday - she is playing a show in Sao Paolo, Brazil.
Still, Kelce continued to take responsibility for his mistakes when his team loses.
'You can harp on my fumble, you can harp on penalties,' Kelce added. 'It's focus and coming together and playing as a team. Everybody's getting a piece of not being accountable right now and we just gotta keep growing. It sucks when you lose but we know we got a great f***** team man.'
The Chiefs enter Sunday's game with a 7-3 record on top of the AFC West. Meanwhile, the Raiders are 5-6, sitting third in the division.
