Travis Kelce stated that, despite the Kansas City Chiefs losing to the Denver Broncos, Chris Oladokun did a good job replacing Patrick Mahomes and Gardner Minshew after both quarterbacks were sidelined for the rest of the season due to knee injuries.
“I’m proud of him. Throughout the week, his attention to detail, his professionalism, his leadership. I couldn’t be happier for the guy. Obviously, we wish we could have got that win for him on a big game against a rival. But, I’m proud of the way he led us into victory and kept fighting.”
Oladokun was selected by the Pittsburgh Steelers in the seventh round of the 2022 NFL Draft, but the reality is that his entire career has been with the Chiefs, learning under the guidance of Mahomes. Now, he finally had the opportunity to showcase his potential.
