With speculation surrounding the future plans of Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, his head coach offered a suggestion for a future career path were he to hang up the pads. Rumors about Kelce's future have been circulating throughout the 2024 season as the star tight end experienced something of a slump production-wise during the regular season.
While one source exclusively told DailyMail.com that Kelce's current plans are to continue playing, those plans could always change. When he decides to call it a career, it's not exactly clear what Kelce would do for a living afterwards - but he does have plenty of options.
One could involve staying in football, a suggestion offered up by head coach Andy Reid. Speaking to FOX Sports' Colin Cowherd, Reid was asked about what coaching Kelce this season has been like and if he gives him a certain amount of leeway. In his answer, Reid suggested that Kelce 'would be a heck of a football coach'.
