Travis Kelce Says He’s ‘Not Ready’ for Life After Football as He Reflects on Decision to Play 14th NFL Season

Travis Kelce, the 36-year-old tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs, expressed his reluctance to move on from football in the days leading up to the team's first game of the season. During an interview with ESPN, Kelce stated that he is "still kinda sitting here, like, 'I don't wanna let this thing go.'" Despite his fans' doubts, Kelce remains committed to playing until something prevents him from continuing his career.

He emphasized his desire to keep competing at a high level and expressed his love for the game. Kelce's decision to continue playing comes after he tied the knot with singer Taylor Swift earlier in the year. He acknowledged that he is ready to support the Chiefs as they face the Denver Broncos, complimenting quarterback Patrick Mahomes, who returned to action after recovering from an ACL injury.
