Teary-Eyed Travis Kelce Announces Retirement at 35

In an emotional press conference earlier today, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce announced his retirement from the NFL at the age of 35. The news came as a shock to fans and teammates, who have long regarded Kelce as one of the greatest tight ends in NFL history.

Fighting back tears, Kelce reflected on his illustrious career during the announcement. “This game has given me more than I could have ever imagined,” he said. “It’s not just about the touchdowns, the records, or the wins. It’s about the relationships, the memories, and the opportunity to represent the best fans in the world.”

Kelce, who has spent his entire career with the Kansas City Chiefs since being drafted in 2013, leaves behind a legacy few can match. Over 12 seasons, he amassed over 10,000 receiving yards, countless highlight-reel plays, and two Super Bowl championships. Known for his unmatched athleticism, vibrant personality, and leadership on and off the field, Kelce redefined the tight end position.

“I’ve always told myself I would step away when I felt it was the right time,” Kelce shared. “And while my heart will always be in this game, my body is telling me it’s time to move on.”

Kelce also expressed gratitude to his family, teammates, coaches, and the Chiefs organization. He gave a special shout-out to his brother, Jason Kelce, with whom he shared an unforgettable Super Bowl LVII matchup, calling it “one of the greatest moments of my life.”

Tributes from around the league poured in shortly after the announcement, with Patrick Mahomes posting, “Thank you for everything, brother. Best to ever do it. Love you, Trav.” Chiefs head coach Andy Reid also praised Kelce, saying, “There will never be another player like him. He’s a legend.”

Though he is stepping away from the game, Kelce hinted at exciting projects ahead, including continuing his popular podcast, New Heights, with Jason.

As one of the most beloved figures in NFL history, Kelce’s retirement marks the end of an era. While Chiefs Kingdom will undoubtedly miss him on the field, his legacy will continue to inspire generations of players to come.

Thank you, Travis, for the unforgettable memories. Chiefs fans—and the NFL—will never forget you.
