Travis Kelce can surpass legend Jerry Rice as the leader in catches in a Super Bowl history.

Travis Kelce is already the all time leader in postseason catches, by a wide margin with 174.  Kelce is a certified first-ballot hall of fame player in his own right whenever he decides to retire.  On Sunday in the Super Bowl, Travis Kelce has a chance to pass the receiver many consider the greatest of all time, Jerry Rice.

 

Travis Kelce needs just 3 receptions to surpass Rice as the leader all-time in catches in the Super Bowl.  Rice currently has the record with 33 in 4 games, and Kelce needs just 3 receptions to sit alone at the top of the Super Bowl leaderboard.  Kelce has averaged 7.5 receptions and 75 yards in his previous 4 appearances in the Super Bowl.

 

Kelce has a receptions line set at 6.5 receptions for Super Bowl 59.  He has been 2nd on the team in targets and receptions this postseason with 12 and 9 respectively, but there is no more reliable option for the Chiefs when they need someone to make a play.
