Travis Kelce Says He Hasn’t Decided What The Future Of His NFL Career Will Be Following Super Bowl 

/in , /by

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce stated that he has yet to make a decision regarding the future of his NFL career after his team was defeated in the Super Bowl.

Before the Super Bowl, Kelce stated on multiple occasions that he was planning on playing for the Chiefs in the 2025 season, however, on a recent episode of the New Heights podcast, which he co-hosts with his brother Jason, he was a little more vague.

“I know everybody wants to know whether I’m playing next year and right now, I’m just kicking everything down the road. I’m kicking every can I can down the road. I’m not making any crazy decisions,” Kelce said.

“I’ve been fortunate over the past five, six years, I’ve played more football than anybody. It’s because of the people that are in that building. The fact that we keep going to these AFC championships and these Super Bowls, that means I’m playing an extra three games more than everybody else in the entire league. 

That’s a lot of wear and tear on your body and it’s a lot of time spent in the building, focusing on your craft, focusing on the task at hand and every challenge that you set up for yourself.”

Kelce is already one of the most well-known and accomplished players in the league, and has cemented his legacy for the Pro Football Hall of Fame. He’s a 10-time Pro Bowler and has the most postseason receptions of anyone in the NFL.

He’s received the most career receiving yards of any player on the Chiefs, and the four catches for 39 yards during the Super Bowl gave him the record for the most career Super Bowl receptions. 

“As you see yourself or not feel yourself have the success you once had, it’s a tough pill to swallow,” said Kelce. 

“For that not to be there in the biggest moments, knowing your team’s counting on you, those are all extremely hard things … it’s just a tough reality.”

“I think I owe it to my teammates that if I do come back, it’s going to be something that it’s a whole-hearted decision. Not half-assing it. I’m fully here for them and I think I could play. 

It’s just whether or not I’m motivated or it’s the best decision for me as a man, as a human and as a person to take on all of that responsibility,” he said.

Travis Kelce Says NFL Is ‘Overdoing It’ When It Comes To Taylor Swift Coverage

/in , /by

On Travis Kelce and his brother Jason’s podcast, “New Heights,” the Kansas City Chiefs player stated that the NFL was going a bit overboard when it came to covering his potential relationship with Taylor Swift. 

While Kelce and Swift have not confirmed or denied their relationship, Swift has been seen cheering for the Chiefs for the past two games, and the coverage has been widespread and highly discussed. 

On Travis and Jason’s “New Heights” podcast, Travis stated: “I think it’s fun when they show who was at the game. I think it brings a little bit more to the atmosphere, brings a little bit more to what you’re watching. But at the same time…”

“I think they’re overdoing it,” Jason interrupted, which Travis agreed, saying, “They’re overdoing it a little bit for sure, especially my situation, [but] I think they’re just trying to have fun with it.”

The NFL responded to the claims on their social media, defending how engagement and exposure has been increasing as the world’s of professional sports and pop culture collide. 

“The Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce news has been a pop cultural moment we’ve leaned into in real time, as it’s an intersection of sport and entertainment, and we’ve seen an incredible amount of positivity around the sport.”

When Swift attended the first Chiefs game, there was a 400% spike in sales for Kelce’s Chiefs jersey, according to Fanatics, a sports retailer. TV ratings for the game were also the “highest among female demographics across various age groups,” according to Variety Magazine.

Swift was seen enjoying the game with Kelce’s brothers’ mom, Donna, at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City on September 24th, and also attended the game at MetLife Stadium when the Chiefs played, and won against, the New York Jets.
