NFL rumors: Chiefs GM ‘excited’ to recover Travis Kelce next season


Travis Kelce has not publicly commented on his retirement since his last podcast episode, but an official of the high -level bosses moved him on Tuesday.

The general manager of the Chiefs, Brett Veach, and chief coach Andy Reid talked about the wing closed during the availability of media at the NFL Combine.

“The way we went to the end of the season is that it was excited. It has a more year under contract,” said Veach.

“I still think that fire and desire to play and, as far as I am concerned, there is no deadline, I think we leave, since it would come back, and we are excited to recover it and start it.”

Reid said he spoke with Kelce during the team’s departure meetings and gave the wing closed some tips.

“At this point, salt from the city and relax. That is my motto for these boys. They played many games for a constant number of seasons here,” said Reid, through the Kansas City star.

“You get to the end, and you have depleted mentally and physically … take a step back and take care of that, then we will talk.”

Travis Kelce ‘probably’ already knows the retirement decision, says his brother

“But for now, I think that’s what he’s doing.”

Kelce said he was “kicking every can on the way” regarding his decision to retire during his latest episode of “New Heights.”

Kelce was still productive this season, but his yards (823) and Touchdowns (3) in the regular season this year were the lowest he has had in a full season.

The closed star wing said that if he was going back, he would not take half measures.

“I think I owe my teammates that if I return, it will be something that is a sincere decision,” Kelce said.

“I am not half, I am. I am totally here for them and I think I can play. It is only if I am motivated or if it is the best decision for me as a man, as a human, as a person to assume all that responsibility.”
