Travis Kelce There are no plans to leave the NFL anytime soon, but he’s already making big career moves off the football field.
Fans have seen a different side of the Kansas City Chiefs tight end since he began hosting the “New Heights” podcast with his brother, Jason KelsaIn 2022. Along with analyzing the highs and lows of each week’s games throughout the NFL season, the brothers revisited childhood memories, interviewed family members and other football stars, and even started a love story. (us Will never forget where we were when Travis first talked about wanting to give Taylor Swift friendship bracelet in Idan tour in July 2023.)
However, the podcast isn’t the only side project keeping Travis busy. As his star continued to rise outside the NFL universe, he took on roles on both the big and small screens — and even launched his own music festival.
Although he’s expanded his career horizons, Chiefs fans shouldn’t worry about Travis retiring just yet. In April 2024, he signed a two-year contract extension worth $34.25 million, securing his roster spot through 2027 and becoming the highest-paid tight end in the NFL.
It’s safe to say that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce could afford to rent out (a few) restaurants every day for the rest of their relationship. Swift and Kelsa broke the internet in September 2023 when the Grammy winner confirmed their romance while watching the Kansas City Chiefs play the Chicago Bears at Arrowhead Stadium in Missouri. (…)
“I can’t put a time frame on it,” he told reporters about retiring for the 2024-2025 season. “I love coming to work every day. Obviously, I know there are opportunities outside of football for me, and I think you have to keep in perspective that I’m still a little kid when I walk into this building.”
