Travis Kelce is the longest-tenured player on the Chiefs roster. He has appeared in 175 games and is considered one of the greatest tight ends in NFL history. Kelce, at 35, has had his worst season in yards and touchdowns since his rookie year. With one year left on his contract, the Chiefs must decide if keeping him is worth the financial investment. Shannon Sharpe advises Kelce to take control of his future and not let the organization dictate his next move, referencing legendary players like Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, and Jerry Rice who changed teams late in their careers. If he returns for one more season, he has a good chance of joining Marvin Harrison and Larry Fitzgerald as the only players in this elite group to spend their entire careers with one team. The Chiefs head coach Andy Reid believes Kelce has the potential to be a great coach, but it seems more likely that he will pursue entertainment opportunities. With past hosting gigs and an upcoming role in Happy Gilmore 2, Kelce’s post-NFL future could be as high-profile as his playing career.
