Travis Kelce isn’t going anywhere just yet and will be around for at least one more season past this current one. But, at 34, he is inching closer to retirement.

The Kansas City Chiefs tight end has admitted that he’s thinking about hanging it up as his body isn’t what it used to be, while he has also shown signs of decline this season.

Whenever he decides the time is right to retire, he will probably not waste much time stepping into a new field of work as it’s reported that he has his next career move in mind. According to PEOPLE, Kelce is looking to get into the entertainment business once he hangs up his cleats.

“He’s really enjoyed hosting, and after he retires, he wants to lean into acting and hosting,” a source told the publication. “He had a blast at SNL.”

The TE seemed to corroborate this during a press conference last week.

“I’ve been fortunate to do a few things outside of the sports world that I’ve been enjoying doing, like getting on camera,” he told reporters.

“The SNL stuff kind of opened up a new happiness and a new career path for me, but it’s funny for me to even say that at this point in my career because I think it’s so much further down the road than it is right now.”

Of course, all of that’s on the back burner for now. Kelce is looking to win a third Super Bowl with the Chiefs, who are playing the Buffalo Bills in the AFC’s Divisional Round on Sunday ahead of what they hope will be another appearance in the deciding game.
