Travis Kelce is currently contemplating whether to retire from the Kansas City Chiefs or continue playing, with a decision deadline of March 14. If he chooses to play, he would be entitled to a significant “roster bonus” of $11.5 million, which is set to be paid on March 15.
While Travis hasn’t made a public announcement yet, his brother Jason Kelce believes that Travis already knows his decision, even if he hasn’t fully voiced it yet.
Jason explained that while the two brothers share similarities, their approaches to decision-making differ.
“We’re very similar people, but we also have different ways of thinking about things. Sometimes I can overanalyze situations, and any big decision I’m having in my life I’ll think about the negatives and what about this or that,” he says. “My brother has this way of being like, ‘Hey man, you want to play or you don’t want to play.'”
In a more recent update, Travis addressed his retirement plans on his podcast, New Heights.
“I know everybody wants to know whether or not I’m playing next year, and right now, I’m just kicking everything down the road. I’m not making any crazy decisions,” he shared. “I’m gonna take some time to figure it out. And, I think I owe it to my teammates that if I do come back, it’s a wholehearted decision. I’m not half-assing it, and I’m fully here for them.”
He’s leaving all of us wondering what his decision will be and why the heck is he thinking of passing on all that money.
