Travis Kelce of the Kansas City Chiefs has been in the news for having a high-stakes decision about if he’ll decided to retire before the 2026-27 season starts, so he’s focused on that. But, amid that decision and the Chiefs making decisions for their future, the team is sharing news about Kelce that’s getting attention.
After the team fell 14-12 to the Las Vegas Raiders in their final game of the season, Kelce fielded retirement questions, as expected, telling reporters, “Who knows? It either hits me quick or I’ve got to take some time. Last year, it was a little bit easier. I think I knew right away, I wanted to give this [year] a shot. We’ll see.”
The Chiefs’ season didn’t end the way any of them wanted. Kelce and the team dropped their final game of the season on Sunday, January 4, with a loss to the Las Vegas Raiders. So, if Kelce goes out now, he’ll end his NFL life on a down note, but it doesn’t erase the awards he’s received and achievements he’s made over his past 13 seasons with the Kansas City Chiefs.

Travis Kelce of the Kansas City Chiefs and Brother Jason Shar Update
On the Wednesday, January 14, episode of the “New Heights” podcast, Travis and his brother Jason announced that they’re releasing their debut book together, called “No Dumb Questions: And All of Our Dumbest Answers.” The book is inspired by their podcast and its popular “No Dumb Questions” segment, where the two respond to fan submissions.
“When we started the ‘No Dumb Questions’ segment on New Heights, never in our wildest dreams did we think it would become a book sitting on your coffee table,” the brothers said via People. “But we’ve had a blast with it, and we’re stoked the 92%ers can take home a little piece of the podcast, including some that were too ridiculous to make it on the show.”
The two also shared with People magazine that they’re “still trying to wrap their heads around being able to call ourselves published authors.”
Well, Travis and Jason have done a lot of things, so adding “author” to their job title doesn’t seem like a stretch. Even this writer has books out, so it’s something that many people do. Chances are, it will be another homerun for the Kelce brothers.
