Breaking: Jason & Travis Kelce Make Huge ‘New Heights’ Podcast Decision After Super Bowl Loss Amid Retirement Rumors….Read More

When life gives you lemons, you make lemonade. But when life hands the Kelce brothers a Super Bowl loss, they crank up the mic. Jason and Travis Kelce, the NFL’s answer to the Property Brothers (minus the sledgehammers but with twice the chaos), have turned post-game pain into podcast gold since launching New Heights in 2022. Picture this: Two brothers, football legends, and podcast kings sitting at the crossroads of triumph and turmoil. But the script just faced a plot twist even Game of Thrones fans wouldn’t see coming.

Fresh off a gut-punch Super Bowl loss, the Kelce brothers are hitting pause on their chart-topping show New Heights, leaving fans scrambling like Taylor Swift fans at a secret session. But why? Is this the end of an era, or just halftime in their podcast playbook?

Cue the drama. On February 18, New Heights dropped an Instagram story that read: “No new episode this week, but we’ll be back with offseason episodes and amazing guests soon.” Translation? The Kelces are stepping back to regroup after Travis’ Chiefs fell 40-22 to Jason’s former team, the Eagles. But this isn’t just a podcast hiatus – its much, much more.

In all possibility, it’s a neon sign pointing to Travis’ looming retirement decision. “I’m not making any crazy decisions,” Travis insisted earlier on the show, sounding somewhat like a man wrestling with midlife crisis than a three-time Super Bowl champ. But let’s rewind for a moment.

After the loss, Travis—rocking a rust-colored Amiri suit like he’d just walked off a Mad Men set—slumped to Swift’s $3 million suite, where “I Can Do It With a Broken Heart” likely played on loop. Can he though? Peyton Manning, playing Yoda to Travis’ Luke Skywalker, warned: “Take some time. Take a full month. Let some things digest and calm down. He can make a better decision then.

Even teammate Patrick Mahomes pleaded, “Let Travis make that decision on his own.” He added further, “He’s given so much to this team and to the NFL,” the Chiefs quarterback added of Kelce. And he’s been such a joy, not only for me to work with, but for people to watch.” But Travis, ever the enigma, said a lot but admitted little.

The weight of the crown wears heavy on Travis Kelce
“It’s just life, man, this sport can humble you so fast, man. It could give you so much praise, it can shoot you to the moon, and it can bury you, man, it can absolutely bury you, man. It’s the occupation we chose. Not everything can go as planned,” Travis shared. But here’s the kicker.
