Travis Kelce fans await important decision after playoff elimination<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

Travis Kelce\u2019s fans and teammates all seem to be holding their breath for the decision about his retirement as he has been inconclusive with his responses in interviews.<\/p>\n

The 36-year-old Kansas City Chiefs tight end has officially completed his contract, but he could decide to extend it if he were to come back for a final season.<\/p>\n

However, sports experts have been claiming that the NFL star\u2019s best games are seemingly behind him at this point, and he could potentially build another career.<\/p>\n

Still, Kelce\u2019s teammate Chris Jones wishes he would come back for another year.<\/p>\n

Talking to the press on Thursday, December 25, the defensive tackle said, \u201cI hope not, man,\u201d when asked about the tight end\u2019s retirement.<\/p>\n

He continued, \u201cWe have just been through so much together, and Travis has been a pivotal part of this offense for so long, and he\u2019s been like a brother \u2026 I hope this isn\u2019t the last year. I hope he gives it one more year. Just one more.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jones and Kelce last played with the Denver Broncos on Christmas Day and were defeated once again, after already losing the chance to play Super Bowl at their previous game.<\/p>\n

The star athlete\u2019s fianc\u00e9e, Taylor Swift, and mom Donna Kelce were seen supporting him throughout the emotional game and exchanged tense glances.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
