Travis Kelce’s podcast returned on Wednesday after taking a break last week, but the Kansas City Chiefs’ star tight end did not bring up his playing future amid retirement rumors.
Kelce, 35, said he was “kicking every can I can down the road” regarding his decision to retire in the episode shortly after the Chiefs’ Super Bowl loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.
With no comment on his NFL future in his latest episode, Kelce is still kicking the can down the road.

“Still think he has that fire and desire to play and, as far as I’m concerned, there is no deadline. I think we left as he’d be back, and we’re excited to get him back and get him going.”
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 the full season.
Should Kelce decide to return, he would be coming back for his 13th season in the NFL and would turn 36 years old during the season.
