Travis Kelce attended Super Bowl LIX as a fan, but indications suggest he plans to return to play for the Kansas City Chiefs.
Sources close to the 36-year-old tight end believe he is preparing for another season, despite not yet making an official announcement. He reportedly spent a recent weekend celebrating with NFL friends, fueling speculation about his return.
Kelce has expressed a desire to play one more season with quarterback Patrick Mahomes, who is recovering from an injury. His teammate Creed Humphrey echoed the sentiment, stating the team would "love to have him back."
Head coach Andy Reid and team owner Clark Hunt have also actively worked to persuade Kelce to continue his career. He was recently honored at the Super Bowl for his charity work, but now looks ahead to potentially playing in Los Angeles in 2026.
