Travis Kelce has no plans to retire any time soon after the Kansas City Chiefs recently qualified for the Super Bowl, according to reports.

The Chiefs, who won the prestigious trophy in 2023 and 2024, are aiming for the three-peat after overcoming the Buffalo Bills on Sunday.



At the age of 35, Kelce is currently in the twilight years of his career.

With the veteran flying off the field amid his blossoming relationship with Taylor Swift, some have suggested that he could be about to retire in the near future.

However, a source has told the Daily Mail that Kelce has no plans to walk away just yet.

They said: "When it comes to his success in acting and podcasting and seeing the opportunities his brother [Jason] has had after his retirement, Travis is not ready to retire himself."

The Kansas City Chiefs will be aiming to make NFL history when they go up against the Philadelphia Eagles in New Orleans on February 9.

And Kelce believes he's still got plenty to offer despite the next generation starting to come through.

"Whether the Chiefs win or lose, he would want to either go for the four-peat or avenge losing in the Super Bowl and would love to try to get back there," the insider added.

"He understands he is in good shape professionally and personally when he retires, but as he gets asked about in the next two weeks, he wants to stay in the league.

"He still believes he has more to give.

"Ask the same question next year, then we might have a conversation.

"But right now all his intentions are to stay with the Chiefs and play in the NFL next season whether they win or lose the Super Bowl."

Meanwhile, Chiefs coach Andy Reid has admitted that he's not thinking about history as he prepares to oversee next month's Super Bowl.

He is very much focusing on the now, rather than what might happen in New Orleans.

"You don't really think about all of that until the media asks you," Reid said.

"You're just in the grind, you're trying to find the next first down, stopping the next team.

"You're so busy doing that that maybe you look back on it when you're retired or so and you go, 'Wow, that was something really special.'

"But right now, you're into the guys, you're into the team, trying to make the right calls, and so on."
