Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce says he is considering retirement from the NFL, but is yet to decide on his future.
The 35-year-old struggled as the Chiefs were resoundingly beaten 40-22 by the Philadelphia Eagles in the Super Bowl at the weekend.
Kelce, who is dating pop star Taylor Swift, is contracted to the Chiefs for the 2025 season but the American says he will delay any decision until he is certain he knows what he wants to do.
“I know everybody wants to know whether I’m playing next year and, right now, I’m just kicking everything down the road,” Kelce told the New Heights podcast, which he co-hosts with his brother Jason.
“I’m kicking every can I can down the road. I’m not making any crazy decisions.
“I’ve been fortunate over the past five, six years I’ve played more football than anybody.
“The fact that we keep going to these AFC championships and these Super Bowls, that means I’m playing an extra three games more than everybody else in the entire league. That’s a lot of wear and tear on your body.”
