Travis Kelce is feeling '22' after delivering his standout performance in the Chiefs' playoff victory.
Against the Texans, Kelce had his standout performance of the season.
In the most significant game of the Kansas City Chiefs' season, Travis Kelce had his standout performance of the season.
In the 2024 season, Kelce had the most receiving yards in a single game with seven catches on eight targets for 117 yards and a touchdown catch. The Chiefs won the game, 23-14, and advanced to the AFC Championship Game for the seventh straight time.
The star tight end asked how he felt as he spoke to reporters.
"He said, "22, baby, 22," referencing Taylor Swift's song with the same title."
During his appearance on "The Pat McAfee Show" before the playoffs, he employed the same joke. When queried about his energy level, he was asked if he felt like a young athlete.
Earlier this month, he told McAfee, "I'm feeling 22 and I'm not sure about you."
Kelce put an end to retirement rumors for another week by turning back the clock.
Despite facing criticism and accusations about being washed up or spending too much time with his girlfriend, Kelce had an impressive season with 97 catches for 823 yards and three touchdowns in 16 games.
As the season neared its end, Kelce remained healthy and only missed one game, Week 18, when the Chiefs chose to rest their starters. With retirement on the horizon, Kelce was questioned about Swift's thoughts on him retiring.
Swift has assured Kelce that he will have his support if he chooses to continue playing.
