Only Travis Kelce knows how many years he has left playing in the NFL. While the end could be near, he still has some juice in the tank. The All-Pro tight end had seven catches for 117 yards and a touchdown in their Divisional Round game against the Houston Texans.
While he only had two catches for 19 yards against the Buffalo Bills, what’s important is that he has a chance to win his fourth Super Bowl title. This campaign gets sweeter as the Chiefs try to become the first NFL franchise to win three consecutive Super Bowls.
Though he remains productive, Kelce’s best years in football are behind him. Regardless of how the 2024 season ends for the Chiefs, his dominance during the playoffs should be praised. As the NFL on Prime Video account on X/Twitter pointed out, Kelce holds the playoff records for receptions and games with at least 100 receiving yards. He also leads tight ends in playoff reception touchdowns, receiving yards, and games with at least one touchdown.
Travis Kelce holds ALL of these NFL Playoff records:

Super Bowl LIX against the Philadelphia Eagles could be Kelce’s final NFL game. But regardless of when he retires, he’s a surefire first-ballot Pro Football Hall of Fame inductee.
