Is Travis Kelce retiring? Patrick Mahomes' response sparks fears among Chiefs fans ahead of AFC title game
Share:
Sunday's AFC Championship in Kansas City isn't just an important game for the two-time defending Super Bowl-champion Chiefs. It could also be the last game franchise cornerstone Travis Kelce plays at Arrowhead Stadium. The likely Hall of Famer is now 35, and while he is under contract through next season, Kelce has a number of off-the-field projects, including a cameo in the upcoming Happy Gilmore sequel.

Such endeavors have naturally led to fears among Chiefs fans that Kelce could bolt Kansas City for Hollywood. But if they were hoping to get some reassurance from Kelce's long-time teammate and friend Patrick Mahomes, the reigning Super Bowl MVP had none to offer.
'I have no idea,' Mahomes told Kansas City's 96.5 FM ahead of Sunday's AFC title game against the visiting Buffalo Bills. 'He hasn't said anything to me if he's thinking that. 'I know he signed a two-year extension before the season and he seems like he still loves football, but he also has a great life as well,' Mahomes continued. 'Either way, I just appreciate every single time I step on the field with that guy, knowing he's a true legend of not only the Chiefs, but the NFL. If it's his last game, let's go out there and get him a win. If it's not his last game, let's go out and win anyways, huh?'.
Patrick Mahomes doesn't know if Sunday's game will be Travis Kelce's last in Kansas City. Chiefs fans are a bit nervous over the possibility Travis Kelce could leave KC for Hollywood. Mahomes' motivational words aside, the quarterback's words didn't inspire hope among the Chiefs faithful.
