In the wake of the Kansas City Chiefs’ Super Bowl loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, star tight end Travis Kelce has broken his silence — and his message is clear: “We’re far from finished.”
The 34-year-old veteran, widely regarded as one of the greatest tight ends in NFL history, is not taking the defeat lightly. In a recent interview, Kelce sent a powerful warning to the league: the Chiefs are not done dominating, and their hunger for redemption is stronger than ever.
“We have a target on our back, and we’re embracing it,” Kelce stated. “Every team wants to knock us off, and that just makes us want it more.”
Kelce, who recorded over 1,000 receiving yards for the eighth consecutive season, has been a cornerstone of Kansas City’s offense alongside quarterback Patrick Mahomes. Despite his age, he shows no signs of slowing down. In fact, teammates and coaches say he’s returned to training camp with more intensity and focus than ever.
Head coach Andy Reid praised Kelce’s leadership, noting that his energy and drive are setting the tone for the rest of the team. “Travis brings that fire every single day. He’s one of the guys who hates losing more than he loves winning — and that’s what pushes this team forward,” Reid said.
Kelce’s warning comes at a time when the Chiefs are reloading with new weapons and tightening their defense. With young talents like wide receiver Xavier Worthy and a fully recovered Rashee Rice ready to explode onto the scene, Kelce’s role as a mentor and on-field general has never been more crucial.
As the 2025 NFL season approaches, the message from Travis Kelce is loud and clear: the Chiefs are coming back, stronger and more determined. And for any team standing in their way, the warning has been issued.
“This isn’t the end of our story,” Kelce said. “It’s just the start of the next chapter.”
