While fans wait on Travis Kelce's retirement plans, one NFL writer believes Kelce will end with the Browns!

Verderame stated, "Travis Kelce, TE, Chiefs. Projected contract: One year, $10 million. Potential landing spots: Chiefs, Browns."

While the idea of switching to a team that hasn't reached the playoffs in two years might sound far-fetched, there's one crucial factor: Kelce's love for Cleveland. The legendary tight end was raised in Cleveland Heights. Travis and his brother Jason still talk fondly of their roots in the city.

A three-time Super Bowl winner can bring the best in the players, like Shedeur Sanders, who just joined the draft in 2025. Kelce's high football IQ would make him a reliable target for any quarterback. After all, he is one of the best tight ends in NFL history, with a receiving total of more than 13000 yards.

However, it's important to be realistic about this move. The tight end has spent his career with the Chiefs, won Super Bowls with them, and won't leave easily. The team has plenty of cap space, so a contract extension might be in the cards.

One Thing Seems Likely.

NFL analyst Nate Taylor, while talking about tight end, said, “He’s coming back, guys,” on his appearance on 96.5 the FM. “Every indication I’ve gotten is that Travis Kelce is looking forward to coming back."

While there is no official announcement from Kelce's or The Chiefs end, Taylor highlights "When we’ll know that for sure, that’s really his prerogative, and I don’t think it’s really going to affect, you know, I know some people are like, '

Meanwhile, Head coach Andy Reid remains hopeful about Travis Kelce's return.As for the GM, Brett Veach is prepared for either of the scenarios and respects Kelce's choice.

We'll find out soon enough!
