Travis Kelce decides his football future after losing the Super Bowl Lix. Craig Carton, Danny Parkins, Mark Schlereth and Plaxico Burress discuss the Chiefs dynasty and if it’s over after the loss.
Travis Kelce has not publicly commented on his retirement since his last podcast episode, but a high-level boss touched it on Tuesday.

“How we left at the end of the season is that he was fired up. He has one year more under contract,” Veach said.

“Still think he has that fire and desire to play, and as far as I am there is no time limit, I think we left when he would be back and we are happy to have him back and get him in progress. ”
Reid said he was talking to Kelce during the team’s exit meetings and gave the tight end some advice.
“At this point, you have to get out of town and relax. That’s my motto for these guys. They played a lot of games for a consistent amount of seasons here,” said Reid via Kansas City Star.
“You come to the end and you have exhausted yourself mentally and physically … go back and take care of it and we will talk.”
