I'm still in love with this game. I still love going to work, putting on the pads, grinding it out and just playing the game. My best opportunity was playing for the Chiefs yet again. Running this thing back with Patrick Mahomes and Coach (Andy) Reid.

Kelce's 2026 guarantees suggest limited window; says he'll play if body allows another full season.

At 36 years old entering the 2026 season, Kelce signed a three-year extension worth a maximum of $57.735 million on March 23, with guarantees tied to 2026, making the contract structure suggest his window is limited. He has not announced retirement plans but has consistently stated he will play "until the wheels fall off" and will continue if his body can "rest up and heal up" and he feels confident he can "give it another 18-, 20-, 21-week run." His decision to return was driven by his love for the game and his opportunity to play with Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid.
