I wanna make this dream that I've always had the best it's ever been. I think I failed last year in a lot of different ways for my guys on the field, in terms of being a leader and just being prepared and ready to rock.
I'm motivated to be f*cking accountable for the guys, man.'
Travis Kelce Talks NFL Retirement, Chiefs Super Bowl Loss + Bussin' With The Boys Meets Taylor Swift
Could the 2025 NFL season be the last year for the 10-time Pro Bowler, Travis Kelce?
Will Compton asked, 'Pouring all that into this season, like setting all the other stuff aside, just focusing on football. Is there a little bit of mortality coming with this being your last year in Kansas City? Like, this could be the last year for Travis Kelce?'
Taylor Swift's NFL boyfriend said, 'I mean, it's the last one on the contract.
I'm focused on this one, man. I don't know what next year's gonna feel like. I don't know what I'm gonna feel like in March and in April next year when I make that decision, or I try to figure out what's next for me. But I know that I got one on the contract and I got a hell of a f*cking team and we got a lot of f*cking talent and I'm pumped for it.'
Did the loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LIX stop Travis Kelce from retiring?
Taylor Lewan asked, 'There were a bunch of rumors swirling around that this could be the last year, this past year. Well, how close were you to hanging it up? Would the Super Bowl have changed that for you?'
'It might have made me think about it a little bit more.
I think I just had a sour taste in my mouth immediately, and like, man, this can't be the last game, you know. I still feel like I can do it. And I kind of wanted to give myself that full focus when I kind of looked at the year, review, and how I got ready for the year, and things like that.
It's not to say that I was doing it wrong; it's just that when you get older, you start to figure things out differently. Like your body doesn't react to how it used to do things.
You have to focus a little bit more on the preparation, and being there, and being ready, and then throughout the week, you've got to have more of a plan to get back to 100 percent.
And thinking about all those things, it was like - I don't wanna leave anything out there. I wanna give it my all and make sure that I do for the childhood dream in me. You know what I mean? The kid in me is like - I wanna make this sh*t the best thing ever man.'

Fans of the popular OTT show ' Criminal Justice : A Family Matter' cannot get enough of the new season. With the finale set to drop on July 3, fans have been sharing speculations about the show and how it will end after the events of the last episode. The plot of the web series follows the main character, lawyer Madhav Mishra , as he defends the suspect Raj Nagpal , who has been accused of murder after he was found holding the body of the late nurse Roshni Saluja . Ever since the release of the first episode, fans have been in anticipation of the killer's identity. There have been major pieces of evidence that have been revealed throughout the show. Things like missing CCTV footage, a lactose-free milk bottle, and now, in the latest turn of events, a mysterious and still unexplained medicine bottle. Ever since the 7th episode of the season was released online, fans have been buzzing with theories and speculations, with many turning into detectives to solve the crime before Mishra. Fans of the show took to social media platforms and discussion forums to share their thoughts on the matter. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like They Were So Beautiful Before; Now Look At Them; Number 10 Will Shock You Reportingly Undo The most popular theory behind the murder Many fans of the show have been pointing out that the answer could be someone extremely obvious that most would brush aside as being a simple side character. One of the most popular theories suggested by fans is that it wasn't Raj, butt a fellow physician who was not involved in the murder. Some even suspected that Roshni could have been involved in poisoning Nagpal's daughter, Ira, and to protect his family, this physician decided to end the nurse's life. More theories about less obvious characters: Is the killer a woman? After a scalpel was found as one of the major pieces of evidence in the murder case, fans did a roundabout, and theories about how the killer might be a female came to light. Many fans of the show started sharing clips of the season 4 trailer that showed a slitting scene with a woman's hand involved in it. Using the clip to support their argument, fans of the show claim that one of the characters named Kamala might be behind the murder rather than Raj. Gripping finale Fans of the show have shared divided reactions. While some have labelled the show's one episode per week format as lazy and slow, many others have shared that it adds a level of suspense to the drama. Other than that, some fans also pointed out that Roshni's ex-boyfriend could be the answer, no matter how obvious it seems. As the final episode of the show is set to be released tomorrow, all that is left for the fans to do is wait and watch and put their theory to the test.
