A look at the Chiefs TE’s salary, contract and NFL career earnings

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has officially become a household name. His fame transcends the world of sports thanks to his relationship with pop superstar Taylor Swift, and he has also enjoyed great success away from the football pitch.

What is Kelce’s net worth, salary and career earnings? Let’s dive in.

Travis Kelce Net Worth, Salary and Career Earnings

The three-time Super Bowl winner has an estimated net worth of 90 million dollars. Throughout his time with the Chiefs, he has earned $93,943,975 from his NFL contracts alone.

In April, Kelce agreed to a contract extension with Kansas City that raised his 2024 salary by $4 million and converted most of his 2025 salary to a roster bonus. He earned $19,551,667 during this season – making him the NFL’s highest-paid tight end.

Kelce probably could have made more throughout his NFL career if he was willing to hit the open market, but he’s always valued winning over a bigger salary.

As he told Vanity Fair: “My managers and agents love to tell me how underpaid I am … ​​I’m like, the free market looks fun until you go somewhere and you don’t win. I love to win. I love the situation I’m in.”

In addition to his NFL contracts, Kelce also has quite a few endorsement deals. He has partnered with companies such as McDonald’s, Pfizer, State Farm, Papa John’s, Bud Light, Sleep Number, Tide, Dick’s Sporting Goods, T-Mobile, Experian, Old Spice, Walgreens and DirecTV, among others.

Kelce also has one of the most popular sports podcasts, “New Heights,” which he co-hosts with his brother and former Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce. The Kelce brothers recently inked a three-year, $100 million podcast distribution deal with Wondery.

Since he started dating Swift, Kelce has received a ton of opportunities off the court.

For example, Hollywood has come calling over the past year. On “New Heights, the Kelce brothers recently mentioned that they have been meeting with studios about possible film and television opportunities.

Travis has a role in the upcoming Adam Sandler movie, “Happy Gilmore 2,” and he hosted the first season of the game show “Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity?” on Amazon Prime Video.

Last year, Kelce bought a 16,000-square-foot mansion for $6 million in Kansas City. In the same year, he also became an investor in Casa Azul Tequila.

Kelce reveals Swift’s thoughts on his NFL future

Talk is starting to swirl around Kelce and his playing career possibly coming to an end, especially after Swift just finished her wildly popular “Eras Tour.”

There has been some speculation (and hints from Kelce) that he could seriously consider retirement in the near future.

Despite possible retirement rumors, at least for now, Kelce looks like he wants to play — and Swift supports that decision.

“She totally encourages me to enjoy playing this game. She loves coming to Arrowhead and coming to the games and cheering me on, so I got all the support in the world to keep chasing these dreams,” Kelece said on “The Stephen A. Smith Show.”

Kelce opened up more about his relationship with Swift during the interview.

“I enjoy all aspects of life. Me and Taylor are happy,” he said. “I couldn’t be happier to have that confidence and that comfort off the field and all the support I could ever ask for in the stadium.”

Kelce went on to gush about how having Swift by his side has made their relationship stronger.

“I think personally that’s the beauty of being in a very strong relationship is that you get that support to be able to come in and focus on your craft, focus on being the best version of you,” Kelce said. “That’s why I wanted to be at the concert, supporting her and being there for her and making sure she feels comfortable and supported in everything she does in life.”

In the offseason, Kelce toured with Swift, even appearing on stage with her at times.

“I think I’m as focused as I’ve ever been on my job and being the best player I could possibly be week in and week out for this team,” Kelce said. “It’s because I don’t have to worry about things off the field.”

Kelce also mentioned in an interview earlier this week on “The Pat McAfee Show” that he always tries to support his girlfriend during her creative process.

“Oh, yeah. You know,” Kelce said, adding that he “will never chime in” on Swift’s creative process. “But I’m here to support it,” he said. “I’m here to see where it can go.”

Kelce also hinted in that interview that Swift may be coming out with new music soon. Although their relationship has been on public display, unlike some couples in the spotlight, they have managed to survive and thrive.
