Trey Smith, Creed Humphrey to represent Kansas City Chiefs at 2026 Pro Bowl Games with Chris Jones, Travis Kelce dropping out
The Kansas City Chiefs will have two players representing them during the 2026 Pro Bowl Games after two players officially dropped out.
Kansas City Chiefs starting center Creed Humphrey and right guard Trey Smith will be the only two players to represent the team at the 2026 Pro Bowl Games during the week leading up to Super Bowl LX.
The Chiefs had four players selected to the 2026 Pro Bowl games, but TE Travis Kelce dropped out amidst a busy offseason, and DT Chris Jones has seemingly joined him after being left off the roster. Jones is a seven-time Pro Bowler and hasn’t participated once during his career.
“That I have a really, really, really good supporting cast around me. It doesn’t happen without those guys,” Jones told reporters after being selected for the Pro Bowl. “I’m super grateful and super appreciative of the fact that my peers and the fans still consider me a Pro Bowler in this league.”
The team confirmed on social media over the weekend that both Humphrey and Smith would attend the 2026 Pro Bowl Games, and they were pictured at the event on Sunday.
Humphrey, of course, is up for the NFL’s first annual Protector of the Year Award at the NFL Honors Ceremony in San Francisco, California, on Thursday, Feb. 5 at 8:00 p.m. CT.

We’ve gone from meaningful skills challenges and a prideful game between the NFL’s best and brightest stars to meaningless non-football events and a flag football game between the AFC and the NFC. Here’s everything you need to know to take in the event.
