by Travis Kelce’s Playing Future is one of the top season of the NFL storylines, at least for the following month. The Chiefs of Kansas City gave the future Hall of Fame one end until March 14 to decide whether he will play next season, reports the Athletic.
Kelce, which will be 36 next season, has one season left on his contract. But according to Spotrac, he owes a $ 12.5 million grid bonus on March 15. The chiefs are currently projected with $ 5.38 million in salary cape room for 2025 and rank 23rd under 32 NFL teams.
The team will therefore have to make some movements to free up more space before NFL Free Agency starts on March 10.
The 12-year-old Pro had a productive season for Kansas City with 97 receptions. His 823 receiving yards, 8.5 yards per catch and three touchdowns were the lowest totals of his career. In the 40-22 defeat of the Chiefs against the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl Lix, Kelce had four receptions (on six goals) for 39 Yards.
Kansas City that signed a tight end Noah Gray signed an extension of $ 18 million of $ 18 million before last season seemed to indicate that the team was planning to plan a future after the Kelce.
On his podcast “New Heights” with his brother Jason Kelce, Travis said he would take some time before he would make a decision about next season.
“I know that everyone wants to know if I play or not next year and at the moment I just kick everything on the road. I kick every I can on the road, “said Kelce.
“I don’t make crazy decisions, but at the moment the biggest thing is just being for my teammates and there are for my coaches who understand that there is a lot in this thing.”
He then explained the toll that playing extra games in the play -offs, including three consecutive Super Bowls, has demanded his body over the years. A long physical and mental recovery comes, which means he thinks about retirement.
“The fact that we keep going to these AFC championships and super bowls means that I play more three games than everyone else in the entire competition,” said Kelce. “That is a lot of wear on your body. It has been spent a lot of time in the building. That process can be exhausting. It can weigh on you. It can make you better and it can drive you crazy at the same time.”
Now it seems that the Chiefs want Kelce to take a month to consider his plans from 2025.
