Travis Kelce Undecided on 2026 Return, Cites Body & Mahomes' Injury Impact

Chiefs TE Travis Kelce remains undecided about his 2026 return, stating he needs time to assess his body's recovery and still has "a lot of love" for the game. He'd return "in a heartbeat" if physically confident. His decision is complicated by Patrick Mahomes' torn ACL, which impacted Kelce's production late in 2025 (no TDs after Mahomes' injury) and could mean catching passes from backups early in 2026. Kelce had a bounce-back 2025 season with 76 catches, 851 yards, and 5 TDs.
