The Kansas City Chiefs still depend heavily on tight end Travis Kelce in the passing game.

Kelce entered the Week 11 game against the Denver Broncos with 540 receiving yards, which is tops among Kansas City's pass-catchers.

However, Kelce is nowhere to be found early on in the game against the Chiefs' AFC West foes on Sunday in Denver.

Here's a closer look at what's going on.

Is Travis Kelce playing today?

UPDATE: Kelce is on the board with his first catch midway through the second quarter. It went for four yards.

Yes, Kelce is active and in the lineup, he just hasn't been targeted yet.

Kelce didn't really have much of a chance to get going on the Chiefs' first drive, as the Chiefs only ran four plays.

It's a matter of when, not if, Kelce will get going, so don't fret yet.
