Chiefs’ star TE Travis Kelce undecided about returning for 2025 NFL season

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has answered the question multiple times this week, just as he did in his previous two Super Bowls: When will his playing days come to an end?

And while the star player has spoken glowingly about his situation and how much football he no doubt still has in him, sources say Kelce still hasn’t made up his mind about whether or not he’ll play in 2025.

It is, in fact, possible that Super Bowl LIX on Sunday is the final game of Kelce’s 12-year professional career.

Kelce, who is in the conversation for greatest tight end to ever play in the NFL, is expected to take time after the Super Bowl, consider his future and make a decision before free agency, which officially begins March 12.

Sources informed of his thinking say Kelce’s decision could hinge on the results of Sunday’s game against the Philadelphia Eagles.

During Super Bowl LIX Opening Night on Feb. 3, Kelce was asked where he’ll be in three years and said, “Hopefully still playing football. I love doing this. I love coming into work every day. I feel like I still got a lot of good football left in me.”

In the next breath, the 35-year-old noted, “We’ll see what happens. I know I’ve been setting myself up for other opportunities in my life. That’s always been the goal, knowing that football only lasts for so long.”

He concluded one of his answers this week with, “For the most part, I’m planning on being a Kansas City Chief and playing football.”
