Travis Kelce has found himself at a turning point in his NFL career, contemplating whether to return for his 14th season. On a recent episode of the“New Heights”podcast, he casually noted that his future hinges on how well his body recovers from a demanding season, leading to plenty of speculation about what might come next for the three-time Super Bowl champion.

In a lighthearted moment, Kelce described himself as “jobless” now that he’s a free agent, hinting at a welcome break where he can embrace life as a “regular human.” He until recently was a key player in the Kansas City Chiefs, so it’s worth paying attention to his musings on the grind of another potential football season. If he feels he can tackle another 18 to 21 weeks of play, he’s all in, but he’s not rushing into any decisions.

As Kelce navigates his feelings about the sport and his health at age 36, he made it clear that while he loves football, he needs to prioritize his well-being. With the Chiefs facing a playoff-less year, this time may be pivotal for not only Kelce but also for the future of the team. After all, can you imagine the NFL without him?
