Both of which will be answered definitively in 2025.<\/p>\n<p>As for Kelce,\u00a0ESPN&#8217;s Mike Clay\u00a0doesn&#8217;t think the future Hall of Famer will bounce back in the way many hope, with his 2025 projection painting a dark picture for the tight end.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kelce&#8217;s 2025 projection<\/strong>: 73 receptions, 705 yards, five touchdowns.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/.image\/ar_16:9%2Cc_fill%2Ccs_srgb%2Cfl_progressive%2Cg_faces:center%2Cq_auto:good%2Cw_620\/MjE0NTk4ODExNjIyODQzNDE1\/usatsi_25558044.jpg\" alt=\"Kansas City Chiefs' Travis Kelce Predicted by ESPN To End Career In Sour Fashion - Athlon Sports\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Should that statline come to fruition, it would be Kelce&#8217;s lowest reception total since 2015 and his lowest-ever yards total. The five touchdowns represent a notable improvement, but considering his previous standards, that&#8217;s not enough.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, we also have to factor in that the Chiefs might be looking to move away from Travis being the go-to guy in preparation for his retirement (if it happens), so his value to the team likely won&#8217;t be able to be justified by stats alone.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-b not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-2\">\n<div class=\"m-in-content-ad not-size-a not-size-b not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-2\" data-zone-count=\"3\">\n<div data-google-query-id=\"CPjmzpjZl44DFeTuFgUdujwRtw\" data-ad-size=\"300x250\">\n<p>Clay&#8217;s projections also have Rashee Rice going over 1,000 yards and Xavier Worthy posting 955 yards, and both with seven touchdowns, so there is production elsewhere, just not as much from Kelce.<\/p>\n<p>And we think he won&#8217;t care what his stats look like if he can win a fourth Super Bowl ring.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/aside>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Please enable JS and disable any ad blocker<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":27052,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-27050","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-kansas-city-chiefs"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>BREAKING : \ud83d\ude31 ESPN Predicts Shocking End to Travis Kelce&#039;s Career with Chiefs \u2014 Is This How It Ends?
