The Chiefs may be without tight end Travis Kelce for the second half of their playoff game against the Titans.

Kelce struggled to find his footing after absorbing a huge hit from Titans safety Johnathan Cyprien late in the first half of Saturday's wild-card playoff game at Arrowhead Stadium.

The Chiefs tight end caught a 12-yard pass with 1:25 remaining in the second quarter as the Chiefs held a 14-3 lead. Kelce was tackled by Titans linebacker Jayon Brown and Cyprien came in to deliver a huge hit.

Kelce was wobbly as he got to his feet and had to be steadied by teammates.

Kelce did jog off the field, but was immediately taken to the locker room and placed in the concussion protocol. He led all tight ends with 83 receptions this season and had five catches for 84 yards in the first half of Saturday's game. The Chiefs continued their drive after Kelce was injured and extended their lead before the break. 

Chiefs quarterback Alex Smith threw a 14-yard touchdown pass to Demarcus Robinson as the Chiefs held a 21-3 halftime advantage.
