Travis Kelce Sets Chiefs All-Purpose Yards Record as Retirement Talk and ESPN Interest Build

In a pregame ESPN interview, the 36-year-old tight end said he is taking his future “day by day, year by year.”

Overview

  • During Monday Night Football against the Jaguars, the Chiefs announced Kelce became the franchise’s all-time all-purpose yards leader at 12,357, passing Dante Hall.
  • Asked by Jason Kelce about his timeline, Travis reiterated he will decide on retirement one season at a time and emphasized Kansas City’s “Super Bowl or failure” standard.
  • Head coach Andy Reid confirmed the team is managing Kelce’s workload, including reduced snap counts, to preserve him for the stretch run.
  • ESPN chairman Jimmy Pitaro said the network would “love to talk” to Kelce when he retires, noting his on-camera chops from the New Heights podcast and Jason Kelce’s current ESPN role.
  • Kelce, engaged to Taylor Swift since August, declined to share wedding details when Jason asked on-air, and outside reports of timing remain unconfirmed.
