Chiefs' Travis Kelce Subtly Reveals Retirement Dream originally appeared on Athlon Sports.

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce could be embarking on his final NFL season in 2025, and as we know, the future Hall of Famer has a lot of irons in the fire.

His "New Heights" podcast, which he co-hosts with his brother, Jason, is a huge hit and his relationship with Taylor Swift may lead to some partnerships after football.

But Kelce might have other plans entirely.

On a recent episode of "Bussin' With The Boys" podcast, Travis subtly revealed what he hopes he could do when his career ends.

"I wanna see what calling a game feels like," Kelce said. "Getting in the booth. I've always impersonated guys that call the games and stuff like that growing up. I don't know, I thought it would always be fun to just jump in there. Player names is where I would get [expletive] ruined."

So Kelce could follow in the footsteps of Tony Romo and Tom Brady—and his own brother Jason, who is now at ESPN—and make his way into the broadcast booth.

Given how many ex-players are currently in the media, we think Kelce might take to it rather well. Of course, it doesn't always pan out as Dallas Cowboys tight end Jason Witten tried his hand at it, and it didn't exactly go too well.

So broadcasting isn't for everyone, but Kelce's knowledge of the game and his personality might be a good fit for television if he were to retire at the end of this season.

There's no denying Kelce will have his fair share of offers after his football career ends — and who knows, he might just be the next player to enter the broadcast booth.
