After winning his third Super Bowl championship and second in a row in February, Travis Kelce was thought to perhaps be on the verge of retirement at age 34.
But he will be back for at least one more season as his Kansas City Chiefs look to become the first team to three-peat as Super Bowl champions.
He will apparently have a side project, as he will host “Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity,” which will air on Amazon Prime Video.

This series is apparently a spinoff of the game show “Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader,” which debuted on FOX in 2007 and was originally hosted by comedian Jeff Foxworthy.
America is about to find out how smart Kelce is, but it is already well aware of how great a tight end he has been over the years, as he will be a shoo-in for the Pro Football Hall of Fame after he hangs up his pads for good.
He has gone over the 1,000-receiving yard mark seven times and has made the Pro Bowl nine straight times, as well as the All-Pro First-Team four times.
Last season was the first time Kelce didn’t reach 1,000 receiving yards since 2015, and at least some of that was due to the fact the Chiefs had no reliable and proven wide receivers, which allowed defenses to key on him.
But he returned to his usual level of production in the playoffs with 355 yards and three touchdowns in four games, including nine catches for 93 yards in the Super Bowl win over the San Francisco 49ers.
