Super Bowl: Kelce has no plans to retire as Butker doubles down on beliefs

Travis Kelce has no plans to retire quickly, even if the chiefs of Kansas City win a third consecutive Super Bowl on Sunday.

The future plans for the 35-year-old Kelce have been a persistent question because his fame of the field has risen thanks to his relationship with Taylor Swift and A lucrative podcasting -career.

Kelce was asked at the opening evening festivities of the Super Bowl on Monday where he intends to be in three years.

“Hopefully still play football,” he said. “I love to do this, I like to get to work every day. I feel that I still have a lot of good football in me. We will see what happens. I know I have set up myself for other opportunities in my life. That has always been the goal, knowing that football only lasts so long. You have to find a way to get in a different career and a different profession. I did that in my low season. But for the most part I intend to become a head of Kansas City and play football. ‘

Kelce still plays at a high level, even if he has lost weight. He had 97 catches this season, but won only 823 Yards and scored three TDs, its lowest totals Since his Rookie campaign in 2013. Kelce had a Throwback match in the division round victory over Houston with seven catches for 117 Yards and comes in with the most catches ever in the play -offs (174) and the second to Hall Or Famer Jerry Rice received in Yards (2,039) and TD catches (20).

Kelce was one of the most popular players at the media during the opening evening with a large group of reporters around his stage, who peppered him with questions about topics from football until if he was planning to give Swift a ring when the Chiefs win on Sunday . He soon answered: ‘A super bowl ring? Next question. ‘

Kelce said that his relationship with Swift helps him on the football field by offering motivation that he has to work as hard as she is at the top of his game.

“I better keep my end of the bargain up,” he said. “If she is here the superstar she is, never takes no for an answer, and always finishes with her tail, I better match that energy better.”

Another Chief player who received a lot of attention on Monday evening was Kicker Harrison Butker, who generated the headlines last year and criticized his position against Pride Month and Abortion. But he said he doesn’t feel the need to apologize for something, although he has eliminated some questions.

At one point he was asked: “What do you think of gays?” He replied: “I understand that this is a great evening and we are here to concentrate on the game. Maybe when I saw it [the person who asked the question] Without a camera we would have a great conversation. ‘

Last May, Butker was asked to give an initial address to the Benedictine College, a private school for Catholic Free Arts. Under his polarizing comments, Butker said that most women who achieved that day were probably more enthusiastic about getting married and having children than entering the workforce, and that some Catholic leaders “pushed dangerous gender ideologies on the youth of America.”

Butker also caught on Pride Month and attacked Joe Biden’s position over abortion, forcing the NFL to distance itself from the comments. While the summer took place before the election season, Butker was again in the spotlight when he launched a political action committee that was designed to encourage Christians to vote for “traditional values”. Butker also spent time in July campaigns for the Republican Senator Josh Hawley, an avid supporter of Donald Trump.

“It was a surprise because I would say similar things with it for many years and it is funny what things are being picked up,” Butker said on Monday about the attention he received for his views. “I said what I said. I believe in it. I don’t need my apologies for something. I feel that God has prepared me at that moment to feel confident in who I am and what is the most important thing in my life and I can deal with everything my way is coming. “
