Travis Kelce Addresses Retirement Rumors While Taylor Swift Helps Him Cope After Super Bowl Loss
Kelce and his Kansas City Chiefs faced off against Jalen Hurts and his Philadelphia Eagles on Super Bowl Sunday. Swift, of course, was in attendance. While Kansas City was a heavy favorite to win this matchup, things did not go as planned. A nightmare game from Patrick Mahomes, as well as Travis Kelce, left the door wide open for the Eagles. Philly would win with a final score of 22-40. After the dust had settled, Kelce seemed to be holding on to a deeper sorrow. Kelce would then speak on the rumors of his possible retirement. Travis would reveal that he is not making any decisions just yet. However, it seems as though the athlete may be considering it. The 35-year-old is definitely not getting any younger. However, after 12 long seasons and three Super Bowl wins, Kelce has created quite the legacy for himself.
“I know everybody wants to know whether I am playing next year, and right now, I am just kicking everything down the road. I am kicking every can I can down the road,” Kelce said.
It was well known that Travis Kelce was already having an off-year this season. Since Week One of the NFL season, Travis just did not look like himself, and neither did his stat lines. Many actually tried to pin his poor performance on Taylor Swift. Fans stated that Swift had Kelce running around the globe all summer, and that interfered with his workouts. However, there is no hard evidence to back that up.
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce had been the talk of Hollywood since they went public. Rumors of an engagement after Super Bowl 59 had been swirling. However, after the loss, Kelce may have some other things on his mind at the moment. With the help of Swift, hopefully, Kelce can pull himself together and move on with his life.
