Travis Kelce will return to the Kansas City Chiefs for the 2025 NFL season despite speculation over his retirement, and wide receiver Rashee Rice believes he is the reason that the tight end is prolonging his football career.

Kelce, 35, was distraught after losing Super Bowl LIX against the Philadelphia Eagles and made no assurances over his future following a quiet season. Kelce had just four catches for 39 yards in the Super Bowl, and posted his worst numbers for a decade during the regular season.

After weeks of silence, Pat McAfee confirmed that Kelce would return next season, though Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes has already hinted that the tight end will retire next year. However, Rice believes that he’s “95 percent of the reason” why Kelce didn’t choose to end his playing career in February.
ain’t gonna lie to y’all, I’m 95 percent of the reason he ain’t retiring,” Rice told REVOLT Sports. “Told him he can’t go out like that. I’m gonna make sure we get that next year.

“He was finna hang it up. I’m pretty sure he was gonna hang it up. And I’m like, ‘Bro, we can’t go out like that.’ I texted him. He basically was like, ‘bro, I really appreciate that.'”

After winning two straight championships in 2022 and 2023, the Chiefs entered last season with the intention of becoming the first team in the Super Bowl era to complete the three-peat. Their goal was completely shut down by the Eagles, who at one stage led by 34 points before the season finale ended 40-22.

Kelce skipped his media availability after that game and quickly exited Caesars Superdome in New Orleans, which led to Mahomes and head coach Andy Reid speaking out about his future. Mahomes made a public plea for Kelce to return, while Reid showed his experience and said that he wouldn’t put pressure on the tight end either way.

After weeks of silence, Pat McAfee confirmed that Kelce would return next season, though Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes has already hinted that the tight end will retire next year. However, Rice believes that he’s “95 percent of the reason” why Kelce didn’t choose to end his playing career in February.

Ultimately, Kelce decided to run it back for one final year, after texting McAfee and announcing his final decision. “I’m coming back for sure. Gonna try to get into the best shape I’ve been this offseason and get back to the mountaintop,” Kelce wrote in the text. “Got a real bad taste in my mouth with how I played in that last game and with how I got the guys ready for battle. I can’t go out like that!!!!”

Rice may have said what Kelce needed to hear, but it’s often the Chiefs tight end who hands out advice. Rice is set to enter his third year in the NFL, and since joining the Chiefs in 2023, he’s leant on Kelce in an attempt to improve his game.

Travis teaches me everything from when Pat’s (Mahomes) just like doing a little scramble drill… just buying time, basically… watching the way that the line is going to fall so I could find a window for Pat,” Rice said of Kelce last year. “Certain routes, he’s trying to tell me, just think about this linebacker being here.

“If he turns his shoulders upfield, that means he’s trying to run deep with the slot. So if you just buy a little bit more time and stay vertical and stuff like that. So I can buy the time to let the defense clear.”

“If there’s something he feels like I could have fixed in the middle of a route or anything like that β€” As soon as I get to the sideline, I’m running over to him. He’s not running over me. I’m running over to him. Obviously, I want to learn from him. It’s Travis Kelce, and he’s one of the greatest tight ends to ever play.”
