Kelce’s extension will keep him tied to the Chiefs through the 2027 season and it has changed his compensation for the next couple of seasons as well. According to multiple reports, Kelce is now set to make $34.25 million in salary over the next two years.

His entire $17 million salary for the 2024 season is guaranteed and the $17.25 million for the 2025 season will be fully guaranteed on the third day of the 2025 league year. The tweak gives Kelce the highest average annual salary for tight ends over the next two seasons.

Given Kelce’s production over the years and his value to the back-to-back Super Bowl champs, it’s hard to argue with him having that spot.

Brett Veach on Travis Kelce- No signs he’s slowing down

After the deal was announced, Chiefs General Manager Brett Veach said “every now and then you have one of these guys that are outliers” and that Kelce is one of them. He said the tight end looks like he’s “28 years old” while going through the team’s workouts and that they see now signs that he’s slipping.

“The odds of someone playing this far into the thirties are very low, but it does happen, and it happens with just unicorns in the profession, and Travis is one of those and we’ll certainly celebrate this with him and hopefully we can ride this thing even longer,” Veach said, via Adam Teicher of ESPN.com. “So, we’ll just have to wait and see. But I’ve seen no signs of [Kelce] slowing down and everyone notices the kind of postseason he had, and he just found that extra gear and these special ones, these special players are always able to find that extra gear. If anybody could do it, Travis can.’'
