From The Insiders in New Orleans: #Chiefs TE Travis Kelce could be playing in his final game on Sunday, as he’s undecided on his future. pic.twitter.com/xQbaMnfO6s
There was something on Only Weird Games this week about how the plan for Kelce this year was load management, until Rice went down he wasn't taking as many snaps or as many targets.
The plan was never to be having 10-15 target games this season, it just happened because of Rice and Brown. [Reply]
It was a casual outreach but the Club is planning on Kelce returning for 1 more year, more load will be placed on Noah Gray and don't forget about injured rookie Jared Wiley. https://t.co/SpZT16sXOY

Rob Gronkowski weighs in on Travis Kelce's future in the NFL.
"I believe he can go at least another 2 years. We're talking his stats being down. How are your stats down if you have 80 plus catches at 35 years old?” pic.twitter.com/1TbEeN3r06
It might be better if he walks. Patrick uses him as a crutch too much, forcing balls that might be better spread around. Also, his blocking was pathetic in the Super Bowl. But, most of all he didn't seem like he was having any fun all season long. [Reply]

I would attribute that last part to be domesticated. He is no longer just out there with his reputation on the line. That changes outside demeanor and behavior. Doesn't mean he wasn't having any fun, but he definitely was not behaving outwardly as his normal self on the field most of last season. [Reply]
Nah. Read up on all the things gronk said about retiring and coming back. He was burnt the fuck out. It’s not a matter of not needing football. He needs recharge time even if that means giving him as much time as he needs to get his mind right. Even if that means preseason or early season reps. [Reply]

Even if that means, you need to cut me the check, on faith that I will come back, cause i mf’ing earned it! [Reply]
