Travis Kelce Talks About His Future in Football: "I Could Play Forever"
Travis Kelce, the star tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs, isn’t ready to leave the game just yet. Despite his age, 35, and a season that saw some struggles, Kelce’s passion for football is as strong as ever. He made it clear during Super Bowl LIX Opening Night that retirement is far from his mind, even if this could potentially be his last shot at another championship.
"I've thought about it, but I still love what I do," Kelce admitted when asked about his future. "It's moments like these, weeks like these, the month that we just had in the playoffs that make me feel like I could play this game forever." His words resonate with anyone who has witnessed the energy and drive he brings to the field, year after year. The thrill of being in the Super Bowl once again, especially after a playoff run that kept fans on the edge of their seats, has only fueled his love for the game.

While Kelce had one of his least impressive statistical seasons in 2024, with just 823 yards and three touchdowns, his impact on the Chiefs’ success remains undeniable. In fact, despite these numbers being some of his lowest in his career, Kelce is confident he still has plenty left to give. "I think I still got a lot of football left in me," he stated, reflecting on what has been one of the most special years of his life.
Even with some of the challenges he faced during the season, Kelce remains optimistic. He’s aware that his role and stats may evolve, but that doesn’t mean he’s ready to step away anytime soon. "Where will I be in three years? Hopefully still playing football," Kelce mused. “I love doing this. I love coming into work every day.” He’s already thinking ahead, preparing himself for life after football, but for now, his focus is on continuing to be the best he can for the Chiefs.
Kelce wasn’t the only prominent figure rejecting retirement rumors. Chiefs head coach Andy Reid, who has guided the team to multiple playoff victories, also shut down any talk of stepping away. "If you don't retire, I'm not retiring," Reid joked, adding to the sense that the Chiefs’ leadership, both on the field and on the sidelines, is firmly committed to one more run.
As the Chiefs look ahead to Super Bowl LIX against the Philadelphia Eagles, it's clear that Kelce, Reid, and quarterback Patrick Mahomes—at just 29—are all in it for the long haul. With this trio still going strong, Chiefs fans can expect even more thrilling seasons in the years to come. Kelce’s words serve as a reminder of his passion and dedication to the game: “I think it’s going to continue to make me want to do more in the football world.” For now, the future is bright for the Kansas City Chiefs, and Travis Kelce isn’t going anywhere anytime soon.
