After their 40-22 defeat against the Eagles during the 2025 Super Bowl, Patrick Mahomes expressed that Travis Kelce might have more football ahead of him. Mahomes explained, “He’s poured so much into this team and the NFL. He’s such a delight to work with, not just for me but for everyone who watches him play.

Despite this, Mahomes confirmed that Travis Kelce will ultimately decide when it comes to retiring, saying “I believe he still has a passion for the game, and he’ll have time to be with his family before making that choice. However, whenever he returns, we’ll welcome him back warmly, as we adore him.

Under pressure, the 29-year-old experienced player fumbled once, threw two interceptions, and was sacked six times, ultimately failing to lead his team to victory in a one-sided matchup.

Travis Kelce, 35, has yet to issue a public statement regarding his retirement.
