Travis Kelce Keeps Future Open After ChiefsChristmas Loss That May Be His Arrowhead Farewell

The 36-year-old says he will choose his path with input from family, friends, the team before the new league year.

Overview

  • Kansas City fell 20-13 to Denver on Christmas at Arrowhead, where Kelce had five catches for 36 yards and took in a loud ovation as he walked off smiling.
  • Postgame, he declined to announce retirement, saying the decision will come after the season with family, friends and the Chiefs, joking the only time it crossed his mind was seeing the Powerball jackpot.
  • A Prime Video sit-down with fellow Chiefs great Tony Gonzalez aired around the game, and Gonzalez said he thinks Kelce may be leaning toward retirement.
  • The Chiefs have been eliminated from playoff contention with Patrick Mahomes out due to a knee injury, as third-stringer Chris Oladokun started while Taylor Swift and Donna Kelce watched from a suite.
  • After the final whistle, a Chiefs staffer blocked a Prime Video cameraman following Kelce toward the tunnel, an on-air exchange that drew criticism of the team’s access control.
