Travis Kelce is certainly nearing retirement age, and it sounds like he has a plan for when he is planning to end his career.
During the latest episode of his New Heights podcast with his brother, Travis Kelce revealed that he will be walking away from football as soon as head coach Andy Reid decides to retire, saying that whenever Reid announces his retirement, I’m out there with him.”
“I’m a passionate guy, I love coach Reid, coach Reid knows how much I love to play for him, I love to be a product of his coaching career,” Kelce said during the podcast according to The Mirror. “I’m not playing for anyone else but Big Red. If he calls it quits, I’m out there with him. He’s not though.”
Obviously, at 65 years old, Reid is very much nearing retirement age. In fact, there were rumors that he was considering retirement following this season. So it seems that Kelce’s retirement might be coming in the near future, and the NFL world had a lot to say about this revelation on social media.

We knew that for a long time. Andy is Travis's kid. Their relationship is unparalleled. Only non-KC fans don't know this.

He’ll quit because no one else will tolerate the disrespect?

But Chiefs’ fans can rest easy until next year because both Reid and Kelce have made it clear that they will be back to try to win a third consecutive Super Bowl next season.
