Breaking news : Travis Kelce is Leaving Kansas city chiefs , dissolving contract because of this

The 34-year-old was limited to playing just one game in his rookie season in 2013 but, since then, he has been absent for just four of a possible 155 regular-season games – and only one of those was explicitly injury-related.Twice Kansas City rested him in the final week of the regular season,

and he was placed on the reserve/Covid-19 list for one week in 2021. This year, he missed the Chiefs’ season-opening loss to the Detroit Lions after hyperextending his knee and was absent for part of their Week Five win over the Minnesota Vikings due to an ankle injury. He’s played through things that other athletes I’ve coached through the years have not been able to push through. Mentally tough – way off the charts.”

Kelce is currently under contract with the Chiefs until 2026 – on a $14m-a-year deal – by which time he’d be an unrestricted free agent at 37 years old.He has won two Super Bowl titles with Kansas City, has been named first-team All-Pro on four occasions and has made eight Pro Bowls.

A sure-fire future Hall of Famer, Kelce’s celebrity status outside of the NFL has also gone to another stratosphere this season due to his relationship with music megastar Taylor Swift.
