UPDATE: Andy Reid Shocked Many Fans at His Press Conference When He Said “5 Words” About Travis Kelce’s Future…
At a recent press conference, Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid surprised many fans with his statement about the future of star tight end Travis Kelce. Reid said: “Travis will be a great coach.”
This comment has sparked speculation that Kelce might consider a coaching career after retiring from the NFL. Having spent 12 years with the Chiefs, Kelce has established himself as one of the greatest tight ends in NFL history, earning 10 Pro Bowl selections and four All-Pro honors.
However, at 35 years old, Kelce is facing physical challenges. The 2024 season saw a decline in his performance, with 97 receptions, 823 yards, and only three touchdowns—his lowest numbers in over a decade.
Before Super Bowl LIX, Kelce expressed his desire to keep playing. But after the Chiefs’ 40-22 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, he admitted that he needed time to reflect on his future, saying: “I’ll take some time to think about it… I owe my teammates a fully committed decision if I return.”
Beyond football, Kelce has been involved in various media projects, including co-hosting the New Heights podcast with his brother Jason and appearing in FX’s series Grotesquerie. These ventures suggest he has multiple career paths available, whether in coaching, broadcasting, or entertainment.
No matter what decision Kelce makes, Chiefs fans and the NFL community will be eager to see him continue contributing to the game—whether on the field or in a new role.
