Travis Kelce has to miss the Pro Bowl 2024 and that is because of his team making it to the Super Bowl. That is the priority right now. He has to make sure he doesn’t get hurt for the big game. There is no reason to play in the Pro Bowl and risk an injury that could hurt the Kansas City Chiefs when it comes to their chance to win the big game.

The Pro Bowl is actually a week before the Super Bowl. This is a big change because in the past it was the week after. That would have given Travis Kelce the chance to play in both. The way that they have changed it up he just can’t make it work to do both of the games. He is focusing on the Super Bowl and not getting hurt for that. Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Evan Engram replaced Kelce on the AFC Pro Bowl roster so he will be playing instead.

Do you agree with Travis Kelce’s reason for skipping the Pro Bowl 2024? Sound off in the comments below and don’t miss watching him play in the Super Bowl on Sunday, Friday February 11, 2024. This is the game that you don’t want to miss.
