Kelce said on the New Heights podcast, presented by Wave Sports and Entertainment,
“Ban it. At this point, I don’t care. I’m over the discussion about it. That’s where I’m kind of like whatever. We were good at running quarterback sneaks before we did the push. I don’t think it’s a necessary part of it. It certainly helps, there’s no question about it. I don’t have the energy to care about whether it gets banned or not. We’re gonna run it right now because we’re good at it, and it’s effective.”
