Travis Kelce Eyeing A Career In Broadcasting?

Travis Kelce Eyeing A Career In Broadcasting?

Jason Kelce is already joining the broadcasting ranks after signing a deal with ESPN. Could brother Travis also follow in those same footsteps? Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce seems to be very interested in becoming a broadcaster after his playing days are done.

This conversation came up on the latest episode of the “New Heights” podcast. Everything got started based on a report by Bloomberg about how Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie was looking to sell a minority stake in the team.

“Stop trying to tie me into this, this is you,” Travis said, laughing. “Yes, [I would turn down an opportunity to become an owner], because I want to broadcast when I’m done playing … I want to do that. I want to be the talking head that calls the games.”

Given the success of their podcast, this news really isn’t surprising. Travis feels like a natural fit to join the media full time once he’s done playing. I do, however, wonder if brother Jason would be interested in trying to buy a minority stake in the Eagles given how long he played there for.

Travis Kelce Shares Thoughts On Chiefs Recent First-Round Pick

While broadcasting may be on the horizon, it doesn’t appear that Kelce plans on retiring anytime soon. He just signed a contract extension in April, which would indicate he plans on playing for a while yet.

Kelce, 34, had 93 receptions for 984 yards and five touchdowns a season ago. It was a sharp decline based on the numbers he had in 2022. Either way, he’s much closer to the end than the beginning so this is a story that needs to be monitored in the future.
