Travis Kelce and the Kansas City Chiefs went through a disastrous 2025 NFL season. The Chiefs (6-10) have been eliminated from playoff contention and are currently on a five-game losing streak. However, head coach Andy Reid doesn't want to shut things down completely as the season comes to a close.
The 67-year-old HC confirmed that the veteran tight end will play in Week 18 against the Las Vegas Raiders.

Chiefs will enter Week 18 third in the AFC West. There's no point left for Kelce to prove, but his presence suggests a desire to maintain standards and leadership, even in a lost season.
In 16 games this season, Kelce has recorded 73 receptions for 839 yards and five touchdowns. This is his 13th NFL campaign.
