In a recent episode of the New Heights podcast, the Kelce brothers—Travis and Jason—had fans laughing and sharing in a whirlwind of jokes, football talk, and a dash of romance. The two brothers opened up about Travis’ decision to come back for the 2025 NFL season after serious retirement rumors swirled following the Chiefs’ tough Super Bowl loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.

The banter started right off the bat, with Jason joking that he was ready to throw Travis a retirement party.

“I had the balloons ready, the streamers, and I even bought a rocking chair for you, old man!” Jason quipped, prompting laughs from the crowd and a playful shot from Travis.

Travis, not backing down from the teasing, quickly responded, “Bro, I told you I’m not retiring. No way! I’ve got another Super Bowl to win.”

Jason fired back, “You’re going to keep playing football instead of coming into the podcast game full-time with me?”

To which Travis confidently replied, “The Chiefs need me, Mahomes needs me, the people need me!” But Jason didn’t let him off easy, slyly saying, “Yeah, we all know who really needs you, Travis… starts with a T, ends with a Swift.”

Travis burst out laughing, admitting, “Listen, it ain’t just about Taylor, man, but when your girl is selling out stadiums across the globe, you’ve got to step up and keep winning rings. I’m not about to be sitting on the couch while she’s out there breaking records. No chance.”

Jason, in true brotherly fashion, roasted Travis: “You got that dog in you, huh? Golden retriever energy, baby.”

The two then switched gears, talking about the role of family in Travis’ decision to keep playing. Travis revealed that, of course, Mom Donna Kelsey was fully on board with his return. “Travis, honey, I just love watching you play. You bring so much joy to the game, and I already have all my red and gold ready for next season,” he mimicked in a sweet, loving voice. Jason couldn’t help but laugh, recalling how their dad, sporting his usual beer, gave his own advice in a deep voice: “Son, you quit now, and you’re going to regret it. You’ve got more left in the tank.”

Then there was Patrick Mahomes, who was apparently relentless in keeping Travis motivated. “Bruh, he called me every day after the Super Bowl. Every single day!” Travis laughed, remembering Mahomes’ daily “wellness check” phone calls. “Hey man, just checking in, making sure you’re not thinking crazy thoughts,” Travis imitated Mahomes’ concerned tone.

Jason couldn’t resist adding, “What about Coach Reid? He probably had ribs ready, right?”

Travis confirmed, “Oh, 100%. He walked in with a full plate of ribs, looked me dead in the eyes and said, ‘One more, big guy. One more.'”

With that, Jason asked the real question: did Taylor Swift have any say in Travis’ decision to keep playing? Travis responded honestly, “We talked about it. She was like, ‘Babe, I love watching you play. You’re so good at what you do, and I kind of love celebrating on the field when you win Super Bowls.'”

Jason laughed, “Oh, so now she’s addicted to Lombardi celebrations, huh?”

Travis just grinned, “What can I say? Winning is contagious.”

The playful banter continued as Jason teased Travis about managing Taylor’s logistics if he retired. “Football is your safe space, bro,” Jason said. “I don’t know if you could handle running Taylor’s HQ and managing her set list.”

Travis admitted with a laugh, “You’re not wrong.”

But when it came to the serious side of things, Travis explained his true passion for the game: “I just love the game too much. I love competing, I love winning, and I love trash-talking on the field. I love celebrating with the guys in the locker room.”

Jason then put him on the spot, asking, “How many more years are we talking about?”

Travis responded with confidence, “As many as my knees allow, baby.”

Jason wrapped up the segment by joking, “So, you’re saying it here—2025, Chiefs win another Super Bowl?”

“Bro, every season is a Super Bowl or bust when you’re with the Chiefs,” Travis said, locking in the prediction. “But yeah, we’re running it back. And if we win, I might just retire on top.”

Jason laughed, “I’ve got to get a front-row seat for that.”

Travis wrapped up the show with a final message to fans: “Thanks for tuning in. Make sure to like, subscribe, and tell your friends that New Heights is still the best sports podcast on the planet. And remember—I’m not retiring, baby!”

As for Travis’ fans—especially Swifties—there was plenty of excitement when the news broke that he’s coming back for another season. One fan on X wrote, “Travis Kelce is locked in for another year, and I can’t wait to see him on the field with Taylor cheering him on!” Another commented, “Travis playing for 13 seasons! Love it!” And of course, there were those who joked about the possible wedding rumors, with one user saying, “Travis getting in the best shape of his life for his wedding and his 13th season. Can’t wait to see him on the field.”

As Travis gears up for another season with the Chiefs, he’s also making it clear that his focus is on regaining the championship. While rumors of his retirement may have surfaced, it’s clear—he’s not ready to walk away just yet. And with Taylor Swift by his side, fans are already dreaming of another Super Bowl celebration, possibly followed by some wedding bells.

One thing is for sure—2025 is shaping up to be another action-packed year for Travis Kelce, both on and off the field!
