Chiefs Weigh Salary Cap Moves as Travis Kelce Decision Approaches

News summary

The Kansas City Chiefs are facing significant offseason decisions, particularly regarding the future of star tight end Travis Kelce, who may retire following their Super Bowl defeat. Kelce, who has been a key player for the team, is due a roster bonus of $11 million on March 15, which adds urgency to his decision. Analysts suggest that cutting Kelce could save the Chiefs over $17 million against the salary cap, though this would be a highly unpopular move given his legacy with the team. The Chiefs have also extended Noah Gray's contract, indicating they are considering their tight end options moving forward. As they navigate salary cap constraints, the team must also address their offensive line and other key contracts. ESPN's Mina Kimes noted that the Chiefs could find some compensation for Kelce's potential departure in rising talent Rashee Rice, should he recover from his injury.
