With the way he’s getting trashed on social media, he needs to lean hard into the burnout. But man I also don’t think he can hear that chirping and end his career that way. And he deserves a proper hero’s send off not just one that ends abruptly.From there, for gods sake if (and hopefully when) he comes back, cut back on all the reps including into the playoffs.

Kelce retiring would save $17M in cap space. The Chiefs would have to reinvent their offense without him and rely more on Worthy, Rice, etc. I think Noah Gray could step up and "replace" him to the extent that he can be a productive TE in this offense.
