\"\u201cSlim(Image via Getty: Travis Kelce) From this in February 2025 – \u201cI know everybody wants to know whether or not I\u2019m playing next year. I\u2019m not making any crazy decisions now. I\u2019m going to take some time to figure it out. I think I owe it to my teammates that if I do come back, it\u2019s going to be a whole-hearted decision. I\u2019m not half-a**ing it.\u201d – to this in June 2025, \u201cHi, @tkelce\ud83d\udc4b\u201d – we all grew up! Kansas City Chiefs star tight end Travis Kelce<\/a> is here to stay, here to prove that Super Bowl LIX\u2019s loss was not a full stop to his career! As he joins his teammates for practice, the four-time Super Bowl-winning team welcomed their ace TE and Taylor Swift\u2019s NFL<\/a> boyfriend, Travis Kelce, with wide open arms and a simple message – just a comforting yet enthusiastic \u2018Hi.\u2019<\/p>\n

Fans react to 10-time Pro Bowler Travis Kelce readying for his 13th NFL season, with one fan saying, \u201cHe still has ittttttttttttt\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSlim Trav bout to kill this season!!!\u201d – from gaining 25 pounds in the offseason to looking slim during practice, Travis Kelce has come a long, long way!\u201cFirst time on grass all offseason \ud83d\udd25\ud83d\udd25\ud83d\udd25\u201d – vacations are over, romantic getaways\u2019 are over, ice hockey stadium appearances are over, and now the 3-time Super Bowl Champion\u2019s back to the daily grind.\u201cLooking good Trav!!! Can\u2019t wait for the season!!\u201d\u201cLight footed, nice!\u201d\u201cI hope he has actually been training hard. I’d love to see at least one more prime season\u201d\u201cHe still has ittttttttttttt\u201d<\/p>\n

Sports Podcaster Nick Wright had said Travis Kelce would not have wanted the last football game he ever played to be the saddest moment of his career<\/p>\n

American Sports Television Personality Nick Wright\u2019s belief in Travis Kelce\u2019s return certainly paid off. Wright had shared in the First Things First podcast back in February 2025, \u201cI think Travis had a script in his head, ‘We\u2019re going to win this Super Bowl, and I\u2019m gonna be done.’ And now, I think Travis is gonna feel, ‘Man, the last football game I ever play is gonna be the saddest moment of my career?’ I don\u2019t think he\u2019s washed. I don\u2019t think he should retire. I think he should do whatever the hell he wants, and if that means he figures it out in August, I think we can make it work.\u201dGladly, the NFL superstar figured it out two months earlier than August 2025! He\u2019s back to the gridiron. He\u2019s back to bringing a fourth Super Bowl title home.
