After reporters and journalists asked Travis if he was thinking about quitting the sport, he joked,  “Do you guys not think about retirement? Am I the only one in this boat?”

He then clarified, “I have no reason to stop playing football, man. I love it. We still have success. Come in with the right mindset. I just love the challenge that it gives me every single day, to try and be at my best. … I have no desire to stop any time soon.”

The only Kelce who has retired was Jason. The now-former Philadelphia Eagles player stepped down from the NFL in February 2024 in an emotional press conference.
