Kelce is considering a move into television as his NFL career nears its end.

Tight end Kelce is set to make his retirement decision following the Chiefs’ miserable 2025 season.

The Chiefs won just six of their 17 games as they failed to reach the playoffs for the first time since 2014.

His current Chiefs contract is set to expire in March with no confirmation made on what he will do next.

Kelce has made an eye-watering $111,194,254 during his 13-year professional football career.

 

 

 

Now it has been revealed by People that Kelce is exploring potential opportunities as a broadcaster.

Fox Sports and ESPN are thought to be the front-runners to land the three-time Super Bowl winner.

It has been explained that this is not a new stance for the legendary tight end.

 

 

 

Kelce has already established himself in the media with his New Heights podcast alongside his brother Jason, 38.

But his network discussions are not set to have a bearing on his future in the NFL.

“Travis has been in discussions with every major streaming service, including Netflix, and every major network for the past several years,” a source has said to People.

 

 

 

“And that is not affecting his decision whether or not he is returning to football because those discussions have been happening for the past several years.”

Veteran Kelce has suggested that he could return for another season if he feels that his body can take it.

This follows teammate Chris Jones, 31, insisting that he will come back in 2026.

 

 

 

However, head coach Andy Reid, 67, has admitted that he is unsure what the tight end will decide.

Kelce has been snubbed from the 2025 All-Pro team alongside quarterback Patrick Mahomes, 30.

However, the tight end has been controversially named as a Pro Bowler for the 11th season in a row.

Tight end Kelce will feature at the 2026 Pro Bowl Games in San Francisco on Tuesday, February 3.
