Travis Kelce is really considering retreating from football after the Super Bowl, despite his statements earlier this week that he could play another three years for Kansas City bosses.
According to a pump report Insider of the NFL Ian Rapoport On Saturday night, the eve of the Super Bowl, Kelce has not yet decided with certainty that he wants to continue playing beyond Sunday, despite saying on Monday he would return.
Raport adds that Kelce, 35, could have his mind influenced by the result of Sunday's game in New Orleans against the Philadelphia Eagles. Whatever you decide, Raport says that Kelce will announce his decision before March 12, which is when the free agency begins.
Speaking to NFL.com, Raport said: 'In fact, it could be the last time we see Travis Kelce in a football field (this weekend).
'Here is the understanding of the situation: for what they tell me, Travis Kelce is undecided if he wants to play in the 2025 season.
'He said he thinks he has a lot of football. He has said he imagines playing for Kansas City bosses. But he has not been definitive.
“It will probably be taken a while after the game and evaluate your future.”
It is likely that the statements surprise Chiefs fans the night before the team had their chance in the history of the Super Bowl trying to become the first team to win three consecutive titles.
Speaking earlier this week, Kelce was asked where he sees himself in three years.
I hope you still play football. I love doing this. I love to enter work every day. I feel that I still have a lot of football, 'he said on February 3.
'We'll see what happens. I know that I have been preparing for other opportunities in my life. That has always been the goal, knowing that football only lasts so long.
“For the most part, I plan to be head of Kansas City and play football.”
It seemed that the matter was closed from there, but now it seems that Kelce will only show his hand after the game. Kelce may have been trying to spread the speculation about his future from here to concentrate on Sunday's game.
If you reduce the curtain in your 12 -year career, Kelce will do it as one of the best closed wings, if not the best, who has played the game.
Win or lose, Sunday's Super Bowl takes Kelce to the midpoint of the two -year contract he signed with the Chiefs in 2024, with a value of $ 14 million per season.
But Kelce can do more millions during his life outside the field, where his fame has quickly expanded from the back of his relationship with Taylor Swift.
He has made incursions into the world of performance in the low soccer season and a contest show was also organized at Amazon. He signed a new agreement for his new Heights podcast last year, along with older brother Jason, with a value of around $ 100 million.
