Travis Kelce is ready to go for Super Bowl 2025.
And he seemingly has a motivational message for himself ahead of the big game in New Orleans.
“Don’t peak too soon,” the Chiefs star tight end wrote in the caption of an Instagram post that included his highlights from the previous two Super Bowl wins, one of which was his touchdown against the Eagles two years ago.
Kelce had six receptions for a team-leading 81 yards in that thrilling 38-35 win over his brother Jason and Philadelphia.
Now, he and Kansas City have a chance to do something never accomplished in the Super Bowl era — a three-peat.
Kelce, no stranger to the postseason, started this latest run with a gaudy 117-yard, one-touchdown game in the divisional round against the Texans.
But things were much quieter in the AFC title game against the Bills, as he snagged just two catches for 19 yards.
He’ll hope to bounce back against a vaunted Eagles defense that yielded the fewest passing yards per game (174.2).
As rumors swirl about a potential retirement for the 35-year-old, Kelce tried to nip those in the bud this week.
“Where will I be in three years? I don’t know. Hopefully, still playing football,” Kelce told reporters. “I love doing this. I love coming into work every day. I feel like I’ve still got a lot of good football left in me. We’ll see what happens. I know I’ve been setting myself up for other opportunities in my life. That’s always been the goal, knowing that football only lasts so long. You’ve got to find a way to get into another career and another profession. I’ve been doing that in my offseasons.
“But for the most part I plan on being a Kansas City Chief and playing football.”
