Travis Kelce not eyeing retirement from Chiefs, wants to ‘do it until the wheels fall off’
At 34 years old with three Super Bowl rings and 11 seasons of a certain Hall of Fame career under his belt, there’s little left for Travis Kelce to accomplish as a football player.
Nobody could reasonably fault him for contemplating retirement. But he’s still having too much fun.
Kelce addressed the late stage of his career and the prospect of retirement when speaking with media Tuesday from the start of Kansas City Chiefs minicamp. He said he’s not calling it quits anytime soon.
“I can’t put a timeframe on it,” Kelce told reporters. “I love coming to work every single day. Obviously, I know there’s opportunities outside of football for me. You’ve got to keep in perspective that I’m still a little kid when I come into this building.
“I know I’m 34 years old, about to be 35. But I have a love to do this right here — in the middle of the heat in June. I love coming to work every single day and doing this. I’m gonna do it ’til the wheels fall off, and hopefully that doesn’t happen anytime soon.”
