NBC SportsTravis Kelce caught 7-of-8 targets for 117 yards and a touchdown in the Chiefs' Divisional Round win over the Texans.

Like clockwork, 35-year-old Kelce woke up for his best game of the year as soon as the calendar turned to "playoffs." His 117 yards were a new season high, and broke his tie with Jerry Rice for the most 100-yard performances in playoff history (Kelce now has nine). Despite the stuffed stat sheet, Kelce is visibly not the same player he was in his prime. He looked a bit like Russell Wilson in the open field this afternoon. He's just so savvy at finding the soft spots in the defense. He will be an AFC Championship Game X-factor regardless of opponent.

CBS SportsSteelers' QB plans: Why Justin Fields is most likely to claim Pittsburgh's starting job for 2025

NBC SportsThe Pittsburgh Post-Gazette's Gerry Dulac believes "in all likelihood" Justin Fields will be the Steelers' starting QB in 2025.

Head coach Mike Tomlin was non-committal on their quarterback situation days after their playoff loss to the Ravens and will likely dance around the issue until we get closer to free agency. That said, Dulac is of the opinion that Fields could be the QB1 next season due to his age, and the success he enjoyed during his six games as a starter this season. Fields posted a 4-2 record as the Steelers' starter, and threw for 1,106-5-1 while completing a career-high 65.8 percent of his passes. On the flip side, Dulac also points out that Russell Wilson "was brought here to end the playoff victory drought, and it didn't happen," and a reason to move on from the 36-year-old vet. There's a lot to play out in the coming weeks/months, but the Steelers' re-upping with Fields this offseason rather than overspending on an underwhelming QB market would make a lot of sense for both sides.
