Dynasty Analysis
Kelce is no longer the dominant fantasy player he once was, but he still ended as the PPR TE6 in points per game in 2024. The cliff (or retirement) could be coming for the soon to be 36 year-old, but he is under contract through 2027.

Chiefs Expect Travis Kelce Back
Chiefs GM Brett Veach said from the Combine that TE Travis Kelce is "fired up" about playing in 2025. “We left it as, he’d be back and we’re excited to get him back and get him going," Veach added. Kelce was non-committal about his plans earlier this month, but it sounds like he's let the Chiefs know that he's returning for what will be his 13th season. Kelce posted career lows in multiple categories and scored his fewest PPR points per game since 2015 last year, but he still finished seventh among TEs. Perhaps his fantasy production dips again this year, but we wouldn't bet against him at least cracking the top 12. Kelce's early best-ball ADP is sitting in Round 10 -- although that figures to climb multiple rounds with this news.

Travis Kelce Considering Retirement
Chiefs TE Travis Kelce admitted on his podcast that he's unsure if he'll continue playing in 2025. “I’m gonna take some time to figure it out,” Kelce said. “And I think I owe it to my teammates that if I do come back that it’s gonna be a wholehearted decision and I’m not half-assing it, and I’m fully here for them." Kelce turned 35 back in October and is coming off his worst season in terms of PPR points per game since 2015. That was still good enough to rank seventh at the position, though. He'd be a good bet for top-10 production if he plays in 2025. But he's a risky pick in early fantasy drafts until we get a decision from him.

Travis Kelce Plans To Play In 2025
Chiefs TE Travis Kelce said Monday that he has no plans to retire after the Super Bowl. "Where will I be in three years? Hopefully still playing football," Kelce said. "I love doing this. I love coming into work every day. I feel like I still got a lot of good football left in me." The 35-year-old posted career lows in 2024 in yards per catch (8.5), yards per target (6.2), yards after catch per reception (3.5), and yards per route (1.43). Kelce's 12.3 PPR points per game were his fewest since 2015. That was still good for seventh among TEs, though. Kelce's days as an elite fantasy asset are over, but he can still be a mid-range to low-end TE1 in 2025.
