Travis Kelse said this week in New Orleans that he thought “hopefully he's still playing football” three years later.
However, a new report states that Super Bowl Lix could be the last star tight end.

Rapoport added that Kelce's future could be riding on the results of Sunday's match.
With victory, it's a considerable way to end future Hall of Fame careers. Being part of the dynasty and the first person to win three Super Bowls in a row.
In the tight end of NFL history, Kelse ranks third in catches (1,004) and yards (12,151) and fifth in touchdowns (77). It happens despite 11 tight ends, including people before him, who play more games than he does, and who include those before him. For reference, Tony Gonzalez, who leads catch and yards, played 270 games, over 95 than Kelce.
Although Kelse was clearly able to turn it on in the postseason (he had a season-high 117 yards in the Division Round), it's clear he's not all self anymore. This season was the first time Kelce has played in at least 16 games since 2015 and has not reached the 1,000-yard mark. He also scored three touchdowns in the regular season. This is the lowest mark of his career outside of his one-game rookie season.
