According to NFL Media’s Tom Pelissero, Kelce’s extension adds $34.25 million to the two years remaining on his old deal. The veteran TE now has guaranteed money in 2024, “with additional money vesting year-by-year,” per Pelissero.
The extension is set to keep Kelce in Kansas City through the 2027 season, which will be his age-38 season.
Kelce, 34, is coming off of a season in which he recorded 93 receptions, 984 receiving yards, and 5 touchdowns in 15 regular season games. He also had 32 receptions, 355 receiving yards, and 3 touchdowns in three playoff games during Kansas City’s Super Bowl run earlier this year.
Despite being well into his 30s, Kelce is still playing at the elite level, and the Chiefs have acknowledged that by giving him a payday, which could be the last one of his NFL career.
