BREAKING: 15 Minutes Ago – Chiefs’ Travis Kelce in Floods of Tears as He Officially Announces Retirement on Podcast
In a tearful and emotional moment that sent shockwaves through the NFL and beyond, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce officially announced his retirement from professional football during a heartfelt episode of his podcast, New Heights, co-hosted with his brother Jason Kelce.
Fighting through tears, the 3-time Super Bowl champion and future Hall of Famer struggled to find words as he shared the news with fans.
“I gave this game everything I had,” Kelce said, his voice cracking. “But after a lot of prayer, conversations with my family, and reflection, I know it’s time. This chapter of my life is coming to an end — and it’s been the ride of a lifetime.”
The 35-year-old, who has become one of the most iconic tight ends in NFL history, expressed deep gratitude to the Kansas City Chiefs organization, his teammates, coaches, and most of all, the fans.
“I’ll always be a Chief. Always,” Kelce said through tears. “Kansas City — you made me who I am. Thank you for believing in me.”
Social media immediately erupted with emotional tributes, highlight reels, and fan reactions. Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes posted a single broken heart emoji with the caption, “My brother forever.” Head coach Andy Reid reportedly got emotional when asked about Kelce at a press conference following the podcast release.
The retirement comes after a historic career that included multiple records, viral touchdown celebrations, and a reputation as one of the most charismatic and beloved players in the league — both on and off the field.
Kelce ended the podcast by saying, “This isn’t goodbye. It’s just a new beginning. I’ll always be around.”
Stay tuned for more on how the Chiefs plan to move forward in a post-Kelce era.
