I wanna be there for the Eagles, I also wanna be there for my brother. I don\u2019t know how many more he has.\u201dThe comments come as Travis prepares for yet another massive showdown,\u00a0with the Chiefs hosting the Buffalo Bills in the AFC Championship this Sunday. At 35, the eight-time Pro Bowler remains a key figure in Kansas City\u2019s offense, seeking his third consecutive Super Bowl title. However, Jason\u2019s remarks have sparked speculation that the end of Travis\u2019s illustrious career could be near.Jason added that he\u2019s \u201cstill trying to figure out\u201d his plans for Sunday, leaving open the possibility of supporting Travis at Arrowhead Stadium after covering the Eagles\u2019 NFC Championship game in Philadelphia earlier in the day.\u00a0His torn emotions\u00a0underline the family\u2019s tight bond, which has been on full display in recent years, including during last season\u2019s Super Bowl when Jason\u2019s Eagles faced off against Travis\u2019s Chiefs.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Could Chiefs legend Travis Kelce hang up the spikes this offseason?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3225678\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3225678\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3225678\" src=\"https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Travis-and-Taylor.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Travis-and-Taylor.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Travis-and-Taylor.jpg?resize=300,168 300w, https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Travis-and-Taylor.jpg?resize=768,431 768w, https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Travis-and-Taylor.jpg?resize=1024,574 1024w, https:\/\/wp.clutchpoints.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Travis-and-Taylor.jpg?resize=150,84 150w\" alt=\"Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce (87) kisses Recording artist Taylor Swift after winning Super Bowl LVIII against the San Francisco 49ers at Allegiant Stadium.\" width=\"1024\" height=\"574\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3225678\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Kyle Terada-Imagn Images<br \/>\nTravis, now in his 12th NFL season, saw a slight dip in production this year, recording 823 receiving yards and three touchdowns\u2014his lowest totals since 2014. However, he reminded everyone of his big-game ability in the divisional round win over the Texans, hauling in seven receptions for 117 yards and a touchdown.Despite his continued success, the idea of retirement doesn\u2019t seem far-fetched given Travis\u2019s growing presence off the field. He\u2019s ventured into the entertainment world, hosting\u00a0<em>Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity?<\/em>\u00a0for Amazon Prime and landing a cameo role in the upcoming Adam Sandler film, a sequel to\u00a0<em>Happy Gilmore<\/em>.Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes was asked about the possibility of Travis retiring but didn\u2019t provide clarity, saying, \u201cI have no idea. He hasn\u2019t said anything to me if he\u2019s thinking that. I know he signed a two-year extension before the season and he seems like he still loves football, but he also has a great life as well.\u201dMahomes added, \u201cEither way, I just appreciate every single time I step on the field with that guy, knowing he\u2019s a true legend of not only the Chiefs, but the NFL. If it\u2019s his last game, let\u2019s go out there and get him a win. If it\u2019s not his last game, let\u2019s go out and win anyways, huh?\u201d For now, Travis remains focused on Sunday\u2019s clash with the Bills. Whether it\u2019s his final game or another chapter in a legendary career, fans and teammates alike will savor the moment, knowing it could mark the end of an era.<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Could this be the last season in Travis Kelce&#8217;s career before he runs home to Taylor Swift?
