Travis Kelce is ready to make history!

The 35-year-old NFL star showed that he's pumped up as he and the Kansas City Chiefs start their NFL playoff run in a pair of new hype videos on Instagram, shared on Friday, Jan. 17 just before their first game.

The Chiefs, who earned the top seed in the AFC, are vying to become the first team in NFL history to win three-straight Super Bowls.

“Playoff football is the most meaningful football that you’ll ever play in your life,” Kelce says in one of the new videos, shared by the Chiefs on Friday morning. “I cherish every single play, man, I really do. When you’re in it, you’re always trying to strive for greatness, being greater than what you are. You know, obviously there’s a historic run and something that we can achieve that no other team has ever achieved, and that fuels you.”

Kelce shared another hype video on his personal Instagram on Thursday, showing clips of his highlights throughout the season with House of Pain’s “Jump Around” playing in the background.

The Chiefs’ chance to make history has been one of the main storylines throughout this NFL season and one that looked more like a possibility as Kelce and Patrick Mahomes led the team to a 15-2 regular season record – the best record Kansas City has posted in its entire run with Kelce and Mahomes, 29, leading the team.

The stellar regular season earned Kansas City its ninth-straight AFC West division championship and a first-round bye. The Chiefs now just need to defeat the injury-depleted  Houston Texans (11-7) in order to make it to the AFC Championship Game next week. And if they win next week, it will be on to the Super Bowl in New Orleans for the fifth time in the last six seasons for Kelce, Mahomes and the Chiefs.

Kelce had 97 catches for 823 yards and three touchdowns this season, the lowest numbers he’s racked up in yards and scores throughout his 11-year NFL career. Mahomes said the Chiefs have no doubt the tight end, who was nominated for the NFL’s “Man of the Year” award, will “step up” his game for the playoffs though.

“The greats, they step up in the playoffs, and it’s just higher intensity,” Mahomes said at this week’s team press conference. “The best players and the best leaders step up and make the best plays, and he’s done that, so I expect the same from him going into this playoffs.”

The Chiefs host the Texans at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City at 4:30 p.m. ET on Saturday.
