Many even feared that the 40-22 loss would be the last time NFL fans got to watch Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce play football.<\/p>\n<p>However, after contemplating retirement, Kelce announced that he\u2019d be returning to play out the remainder of his contract. At the annual NFL owner\u2019s meetings in Tampa Bay, Chiefs head coach Andy Reid revealed that Kecle informed him of his decision to return a week prior to the Super Bowl, according to Pro Football Talk.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI just wanted him to put it out there and not me,\u201d Reid said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI always like guys to step back (after the season), but he wants to come back, and he\u2019s training like crazy, too.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>However, the brutal reality is that even though he\u2019s returning, Kelce is on the back end of his career, and with that, Reid admitted that the future Hall of Famer may have a reduced workload next season.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ll see when he comes back and see where he\u2019s at,\u201d Reid said. \u201cHe\u2019s learning when to come out when he needs it. We were banged up at the (receiver) positions, so that doesn\u2019t help a tight end\u2019s cause at all. The healthier we can be around him, he can still be productive.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019ll be interesting to see what level Kelce can produce at next season, as he looks to leave his career on his own terms, as he tries his best to hold off Father Time.<\/p>\n<p>Hopefully, Kelce can continue to compete at the level he and his fans have become accustomed to over the course of what has been nothing short of an illustrious career.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<section id=\"author-box\">\n<div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/647b9a97ea7a5ed57652705a8ee15fad?s=96&amp;r=pg\" alt=\"Chiefs coach confirms brutal Travis Kelce news\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>About Qwame Skinner<\/h2>\n<p>Qwame Skinner has loved both writing and sports his entire life.
