"I'll let Travis make that decision on his own, man," Mahomes told reporters after the game of Kelce's retirement timeline, according to the NFL. "He's given so much to this team and to the NFL and been such a joy not only for me to work with but for people to watch."

A blowout loss meant no one had to keep the television on to see if Travis Kelce would propose to mega popstar girlfriend Taylor Swift. Instead, after Kelce no-showed the Chiefs’ 40-22 loss to the Eagles in Super Bowl 2025, the focus turned to what Kelce would say about his future and the possibility of retirement.
