Travis Kelce delivers complete Super Bowl 2025 dud with NFL future uncertain

NEW ORLEANS — If this was the final game of Travis Kelce’s career, it was an ugly one.What started with a telling moment – his famous girlfriend Taylor Swift getting booed by Eagles fans when she was shown on the scoreboard – only became a worse night for the power couple.Kelce didn’t catch a pass on two targets in the first half as his buddy Patrick Mahomes completely imploded with two interceptions, including one returned for a touchdown, and the Chiefs fell behind by 24 points in what became a 40-22 loss in Super Bowl 2025.Kelce, 35, is coming off full-time career lows of 823 receiving yards and three touchdowns during the regular season.After a one-game revival in the AFC Divisional round, Kelce was held in check in the last two games.Super Bowl 59 marked the first time in his 25-game playoff career that he had zero receptions in the first half.
