Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes and tight end Travis Kelce shared an emotional moment on the sideline during their Super Bowl LIX loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. The NFL released a clip of their brief conversation, where Kelce told Mahomes he “owes you a lot” for what he’s done.
Kelce, a 10-time Pro Bowler, is under contract through 2025 but his age and performance this season raise questions about his future in the league. His lowest-ever full-season statistics – 823 receiving yards and three touchdowns – made him a non-factor in two of Kansas City’s biggest games. The Chiefs are hopeful that Kelce will make a decision about his playing status by around March 14, when free agency officially opens.
The team is planning for the possibility they’ll need a new starting tight end, given Kelce’s uncertain future.
