In the wake of a disappointing Super Bowl loss, Kelce told McAfee he couldn&#8217;t &#8220;go out like that&#8221; and that he planned to get into the best shape possible this offseason in pursuit of his fourth career Lombardi Trophy.<\/p>\n<p>Kelce, 35, capped off his 12th year in the league in 2024 and finished with 97 catches for 823 yards and three touchdowns, his lowest receiving yardage and touchdown totals since his rookie season. Still, one has to wonder whether he has unfinished business following the Chiefs&#8217; 40-22 blowout defeat to the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LIX that ruined their chances of a three-peat.<\/p>\n<p><em>New Heights<\/em>, the podcast Kelce runs with his brother Jason,\u00a0already celebrated Kelce&#8217;s return\u00a0with a hilariously edited clip from\u00a0<em>The Wolf of Wall Street.\u00a0<\/em>Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, too,\u00a0shared his excited reaction\u00a0to the news with an all-time great GIF.<\/p>\n<p>On Friday, the Chiefs social media\u00a0posted a fired-up TikTok video\u00a0to welcome the star back and included a simple but classic two-word message: &#8220;ALRIGHT NAH.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div id=\"qcmgidgb2\"><\/div>\n<p><iframe class=\"ql-video\" src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/embed\/Tweet.html?dnt=false&amp;embedId=twitter-widget-0&amp;features=eyJ0ZndfdGltZWxpbmVfbGlzdCI6eyJidWNrZXQiOltdLCJ2ZXJzaW9uIjpudWxsfSwidGZ3X2ZvbGxvd2VyX2NvdW50X3N1bnNldCI6eyJidWNrZXQiOnRydWUsInZlcnNpb24iOm51bGx9LCJ0ZndfdHdlZXRfZWRpdF9iYWNrZW5kIjp7ImJ1Y2tldCI6Im9uIiwidmVyc2lvbiI6bnVsbH0sInRmd19yZWZzcmNfc2Vzc2lvbiI6eyJidWNrZXQiOiJvbiIsInZlcnNpb24iOm51bGx9LCJ0ZndfZm9zbnJfc29mdF9pbnRlcnZlbnRpb25zX2VuYWJsZWQiOnsiYnVja2V0Ijoib24iLCJ2ZXJzaW9uIjpudWxsfSwidGZ3X21peGVkX21lZGlhXzE1ODk3Ijp7ImJ1Y2tldCI6InRyZWF0bWVudCIsInZlcnNpb24iOm51bGx9LCJ0ZndfZXhwZXJpbWVudHNfY29va2llX2V4cGlyYXRpb24iOnsiYnVja2V0IjoxMjA5NjAwLCJ2ZXJzaW9uIjpudWxsfSwidGZ3X3Nob3dfYmlyZHdhdGNoX3Bpdm90c19lbmFibGVkIjp7ImJ1Y2tldCI6Im9uIiwidmVyc2lvbiI6bnVsbH0sInRmd19kdXBsaWNhdGVfc2NyaWJlc190b19zZXR0aW5ncyI6eyJidWNrZXQiOiJvbiIsInZlcnNpb24iOm51bGx9LCJ0ZndfdXNlX3Byb2ZpbGVfaW1hZ2Vfc2hhcGVfZW5hYmxlZCI6eyJidWNrZXQiOiJvbiIsInZlcnNpb24iOm51bGx9LCJ0ZndfdmlkZW9faGxzX2R5bmFtaWNfbWFuaWZlc3RzXzE1MDgyIjp7ImJ1Y2tldCI6InRydWVfYml0cmF0ZSIsInZlcnNpb24iOm51bGx9LCJ0ZndfbGVnYWN5X3RpbWVsaW5lX3N1bnNldCI6eyJidWNrZXQiOnRydWUsInZlcnNpb24iOm51bGx9LCJ0ZndfdHdlZXRfZWRpdF9mcm9udGVuZCI6eyJidWNrZXQiOiJvbiIsInZlcnNpb24iOm51bGx9fQ%3D%3D&amp;frame=false&amp;hideCard=false&amp;hideThread=false&amp;id=1895525973707407850&amp;lang=en&amp;origin=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.si.com%2Fnfl%2Fchiefs-post-perfect-two-word-message-welcome-travis-kelce-back&amp;sessionId=705da12ea9e48c1167ee53c6172d3505c305579a&amp;siteScreenName=SInow&amp;theme=light&amp;widgetsVersion=2615f7e52b7e0%3A1702314776716&amp;width=550px\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>The signature catchphrase from\u00a0<em>New Heights<\/em>\u00a0never gets old.
