CMA Awards 2023: 10 Chiefs Midseason Arrowhead Awards
By Joe Summers
4. The "Shake it Off" Chiefs Warrior of the Year Award - Travis Kelce, TE
It's been quite a year for Travis Kelce, who suddenly became one of the faces of the NFL and American sports at large following his developing romance with Taylor Swift.
He missed Week 1 with an injury and battled various ailments throughout the year, though he's been a warrior and is still producing at an elite level in his age-34 season.

Kelce just became the Chiefs' all-time leading receiver, amassing 597 yards on 57 catches and four TDs on the season.
He's been a vocal leader on and off the field, taking responsibility for his mistakes while pressuring teammates to play better on offense.
We can be confident in the Chiefs' prospects moving forward largely due to Kelce's brilliance and consistent leadership.
For my money, Kelce is the greatest Chief in history. He's well-deserving of the very first "Shake it Off" Chiefs Warrior award.
