Kansas City Chiefs TE Travis Kelce did not participate in optional organized team activities earlier this week but he will be in attendance for mandatory minicamp next week. He has told people close to him that he lost approximately 25 pounds this offseason, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.
Huddle Up: The 35-year-old Kelce had played at a heavier weight in 2024 and experienced a slight decline in production, with 97 catches for 823 yards and three touchdowns over 16 regular-season games. However, a down year for him would be a great year for most other tight ends, so he can still be considered as a solid TE1 option in all fantasy formats.

Kansas City Chiefs TE Travis Kelce looks like he feels better than he did at the start of last season, according to QB Patrick Mahomes. "He's in here," Mahomes said. "He's working. I know his body feels good. I think he feels better than even last year before going into last season. I think he's motivated to go out there and have an even better year than he had this last." "If it's the last ride, you would never know," Mahomes said. "The way he's talking about football. The way he's talking about working and trying to be even better this year than he was last year. He doesn't seem like a guy like it's his last ride, like he's tired of the job."
Huddle Up: Kelce was the TE10 in non-PPR leagues and the TE5 in PPR formats. He looked devoid of a burst last season, but he's still going to get his counting numbers. Just don't expect him to be north of that TE5 range.

Kansas City Chiefs TE Travis Kelce told the Pat McAfee Show that he is "coming back for sure", going to "get in the best shape of my life this offseason" and has "a real bad taste in my mouth with how I played in that last game" on Thursday, Feb. 27.
Huddle Up: It remains to be seen how much the 35-year-old Kelce (36 in October) has left coming off his worst season as a pro (career-low 823 receiving yards and three receiving touchdowns). With that said, Kelce's bad year is a great year for most tight ends, so it would not be a surprise if he remains a top-five fantasy tight end in 2025. The expectations for him just need to be considerably lowered from the lofty 90-catch, 1,000-yard standard he set earlier in his career.

Kansas City Chiefs TE Travis Kelce is believed to be deciding on his playing future, but general manager Brett Veach said the Chiefs expect Kelce to play in 2025.
Huddle Up: Fantasy players will need to monitor the situation over the next few weeks because Kelce likely will make a decision soon. He is a big part of the Chiefs passing game and will be a weekly starting option in fantasy leagues if he continues playing.

Updating previous reports, the Kansas City Chiefs want TE Travis Kelce to make a decision about his status for the 2025 season by March 14, according to a source. It is uncertain if he will return for his 12th NFL season or retire.
Huddle Up: If Kelce is still on the Chiefs' active roster on March 15, he would automatically receive a roster bonus of $11.5 million, so the team would like a final decision before that date. This would allow Kansas City to make alternate plans if he retires, although they would be sacrificing the first few days of NFL free agency, which opens on March 10. Kelce would be considered a TE1 option in all fantasy formats if he decides to continue his playing career.

Kansas City Chiefs TE Travis Kelce said he will be taking some time to decide on his playing future, but DE Charles Omenihu said he believes that Kelce will play for the Chiefs in 2025.
Huddle Up: Fantasy players will need to monitor the situation over the next few weeks to see if Kelce will continue his playing career. He was a big part of the passing game again this season and will be a No. 1 fantasy tight end in 2025 if he plays.

Kansas City Chiefs TE Travis Kelce is mulling retirement. "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 that it's gonna be a wholehearted decision, and I'm fully here for them," Kelce said. "I think I can play, it's just whether or not I'm motivated or it's the best decision for me as a man, as a human, as a person to take on all that responsibility."
Huddle Up: Despite a down year, he was still the TE5 in PPR leagues last season. That's about the range to expect to take him next year if he returns.

Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes completed 21 of his 32 passes for 257 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions in a 40-22 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LIX. He was also sacked six times and lost a fumble. RB Kareem Hunt and RB Isiah Pacheco combined for 16 rushing yards on six carries, and WR Xavier Worthy finished with eight receptions for 157 yards and two touchdowns. TE Travis Kelce had four receptions for 39 yards, and WR DeAndre Hopkins had two grabs for 18 yards and a score. LB Drue Tranquill had a game-high 11 tackles and a sack.

Kansas City Chiefs TE Travis Kelce has not decided on his playing future at this point, and the result of Super Bowl LIX could play a factor in his decision, according to sources.
Huddle Up: Kelce has been one of the top tight ends in the NFL for a while but is 35 years old and could decide on retirement soon. Fantasy players should keep an eye on the situation over the next few weeks to see if Kelce will play in 2025.

Kansas City Chiefs TE Travis Kelce hinted that this may not be his last season Tuesday, Feb. 3. "I've thought about it, but I still love what I do," Kelce said. "It's moments like these, weeks like these, the month that we just had in the playoffs that make me feel like I could play this game forever. I think I still got a lot of football left in me. I think this year has been one of the most special years of my life. I think it's gonna continue to make me want to do more in the football world. Where will I be in three years? Hopefully still playing football."
Huddle Up: As far as Super Bowl pools go, Kelce is probably neck and neck with Dallas Goedert as far as tight end selections go. In terms of fantasy drafts next season, he'll be a midrange TE1 after 823 yards and three TDs this regular season.
