It’s been quite the year for Travis Kelce. The Kansas City Chiefs tight end is coming off a Super Bowl-winning season while dating the most famous woman in the world in Taylor Swift.
It’s understandable if Kelce is a bit tired. And it sounds like he is. Kelce is getting up there in age and the 34-year-old tight end appears to be feeling it a bit heading into the 2024 season.
He’s hoping to get his rest when he can. “Last year was pretty taxing on my body,” Kelce said. “I’ve had more snaps than a lot of guys if not everybody in the NFL over the past five, six years, and I’m very prideful of that, but I know it has taken a toll on my body.
“So it’s just making sure that my body’s getting that rest and that ability to train harder and be able to withstand an entire 17-to-20-game season.”
The Chiefs are coming off a third Super Bowl under head coach Andy Reid. They will likely be doing whatever they can to keep Kelce healthy and ready.
