The second TGL season tees off Sunday with a rematch of last year’s SoFi Cup finals, in which Atlanta Drive GC defeated New York Golf Club in a pair of one-point matches on the final hole to capture the inaugural title in the tech-infused indoor golf league.
The six team rosters remain unchanged from the inaugural season, although 15-time major champion Tiger Woods and two-time PGA Championship winner Justin Thomas won’t compete, at least at the start of the TGL season, while they continue to recover from back surgeries.
Woods, who turns 50 on Dec. 30, is expected to attend Jupiter Links GC matches and wear a microphone as he cuts up with teammates and competitors. All of the matches will be broadcast on ABC, ESPN, ESPN2 and/or ESPN+.
Last season, Jupiter Links GC and Rory McIlroy‘s Boston Common Golf were the only teams not to make the playoffs. In fact, those teams combined to win only one of 10 matches.
“I think all of us are ready to not suck anymore,” said Tom Kim, a member of Jupiter Links GC. “We’re ready to win, especially for a guy who’s not used to losing as much. And he’s on our butts to get into the playoffs.”
So what is new in the six-team league that will play five matches each in a regular season that starts Sunday and ends March 3?
Larger GreenZone putting green
There’s a bigger and badder GreenZone putting surface, which is 38% larger than last season, according to TGL. It increased from 3,800 square feet to 5,270 and now has 12 hole locations (there were seven previously).
TGL said 608 actuators will be used to morph the putting surface and two larger full swing virtual greens under the turf are now 1,250 square feet, which is 60 square feet larger than last season.
“Obviously, the green is almost double the size,” said 2023 U.S. Open winner Wyndham Clark, a member of The Bay Golf Club. “I’ve heard that it’ll be easier to read and a little more consistent, which I think is awesome for any of us, but especially guys that pride themselves on being good putters.”
The upper tier of the green has fixed topography and doesn’t move, according to Andrew Macaulay, chief technology officer at TMRW Sports. The large knoll in the middle of the upper tier was dropped by about 1½ feet to give in-arena fans a better view of the action. A small bunker was also removed to increase the putting surface.
“We’ve made the two other bunkers bigger and riveted edges around them, so a much nicer-looking and easier transition from sand to fairway around them,” Macaulay said.
Another big change is that turf was laid down grain all the way toward the middle, eliminating tricky into-the-grain shots that perplexed players last season. Long iron shots on par-5 holes that might have stopped last season are now more likely to bounce on the green and toward the hole.
“Now, every chip’s down grain, which I think will create more excitement for the viewership, because we’ll be able to do anything we want with a golf ball,” Clark said.
Signature holes for every team
Among several new holes from golf course architects Gil Hanse, Beau Welling Design, Pizá Golf and Nicklaus Design are six that have been updated to become signature holes for each of the teams.
For instance, The Bay Golf Club’s “Bay Breaker” hole features towering redwoods and fog. Alcatraz and the San Francisco skyline can be seen in the distance. Macaulay said the hole was inspired by Pebble Beach Golf Links, TPC Harding Park and Lincoln Park golf courses in the Bay area.
“Every team has their own hole, and, of course, any given match between two teams, those two holes will be played,” Macaulay said. “It’s an advantage for the team because they get to play their hole every single match, whereas their opponent, during the regular season, only gets to play it when they’re playing against The Bay, for example.”
Beyond the signature holes, there are a number of other new holes that were added.
Hanse’s first hole for TGL is a par-5 called “Stone & Steeple,” which has Sahara-style cross bunkers off the tee and a stone wall down the left side that separates the playing area from a graveyard next to a New England-style church.
“Players must be accurate with their approaches — the church provides a grim reminder that any shots hit too far left are not long for this world,” the TGL description said.
A par-4 hole called “Stinger” was inspired by Tiger’s signature stinger shots. A natural rock formation encourages golfers to hit stinger shots off the tee, no higher than 50 feet or so.
“Those brave and skillful enough to take it on successfully will be rewarded with a boost of extra roll beyond 260 yards into position A on this double-dogleg hole,” the TGL description said. “There is an alternative option: a short, mid-to-high draw off the tee to skirt the rock formation. But where’s the fun in that?”
A new par-3 hole takes its name from the natural limestone sinkholes of the Yucatán Peninsula, which were sacred to Mayans.
“We can still have the traditional holes, but we can have some holes that you would see in a video game,” said Atlanta Drive GC member Billy Horschel. “Because in some sort [of way], this is a video game that we’re playing. We’re playing a high-tech video game in a sense.”
New graphics and technology
TGL is promoting its new shot comparison graphics, which will use Virtual Eye technology to track golfers’ shots on fairways and greens. The league said “data-rich, augmented-reality graphics overlaid on the green will also illustrate shot quality at pivotal moments by comparing to team averages and the best approach ever on that hole.”
“[L]ive shot tracing will track balls in flight before they hit TGL’s massive screen, the largest simulator in all of golf,” TGL said in a news release.
Additionally, SoFi Center now has 79 cameras to capture every angle of a match, “including the return of the award-winning SmartPin Cam, which provides live, 360-degree views from the perspective of the pin flag” and “new camera angles, such as a reverse shot from a fairway back to the tee or hovering perspective above the green.”
OpenAI is hiring a Head of Preparedness. Or, in other words, someone whose primary job is to think about all the ways AI could go horribly, horribly wrong. In a post on X, Sam Altman announced the position by acknowledging that the rapid improvement of AI models poses “some real challenges.” The post goes on to specifically call out the potential impact on people’s mental health and the dangers of AI-powered cybersecurity weapons.
The job listing says the person in the role would be responsible for:
“Tracking and preparing for frontier capabilities that create new risks of severe harm. You will be the directly responsible leader for building and coordinating capability evaluations, threat models, and mitigations that form a coherent, rigorous, and operationally scalable safety pipeline.”
Altman also says that, looking forward, this person would be responsible for executing the company’s “preparedness framework,” securing AI models for the release of “biological capabilities,” and even setting guardrails for self-improving systems. He also states that it will be a “stressful job,” which seems like an understatement.
In addition to Sean and Jayden, Federline is also dad to daughter Kori Madison Federline, 23, and son Kaleb Michael Jackson Federline, 21, with ex Shar Jackson, as well as daughters Jordan Kay Federline, 14, and Peyton Marie Federline, 11, with wife Victoria Prince.
Jayden has called his mom his inspiration, explaining in 2022 that he didn’t quite realize the extent of her fame till he saw the sort of crowd she attracted as a performer.
“There was this TV and it just showed all these people, and it showed her singing and dancing on the stage, and when I saw that I was like ‘Wow, that is a lot of people,'” he recalled to the Daily Mail. “And I came to the realization of how famous she was and how successful she is as a person and that inspired me.”

The “Bowls are dead!” chorus is growing louder. Notre Dame opted out after what had to feel like one of the crueler playoff snubs imaginable (non-2023 Florida State edition, anyway). So did Kansas State and Iowa State (who, to be fair, lost their head coaches and had basically taken a bowl trip to Ireland to start the season already). When the Birmingham Bowl was looking for an opponent for Georgia Southern, it had to search pretty deep into the bin of 5-7 teams before finding one willing and able to make the flight. The vibes have certainly been better.
Once the field is set, however, the vibes don’t matter. With two delightful Saturday matchups — Prairie View A&M vs. South Carolina State in the Cricket Celebration bowl at noon ET, then Boise State vs. Washington in the Bucked Up LA Bowl Hosted by Gronk at 8 p.m. (with Army-Navy in between, of course) — the train leaves the station. Then we’re off on a three-week journey from Atlanta to Boise and Frisco and Hawai’i and Boston and Birmingham and El Paso and all points in between.
Some teams will be more excited to be there than others, and some players will opt out, and the show will go on regardless. We’ll soak in the last college football we can get, we’ll see players dump french fries and mayonnaise (in separate bowl games, though that would be delightful together) on victorious coaches, we’ll murder an anthropomorphized Pop-Tart, and we’ll all have a lovely time.
The deader we pretend bowls are, the more entertaining they turn out to be. To prepare you for the silliness, I’m here to lump each bowl game — not including first-round College Football Playoff games, which technically aren’t bowls, or the Fiesta and Peach Bowl semifinals, which don’t have any teams yet — into 13 categories. (Some show up in multiple categories. It’s fine.)
Here’s something you need to know about each game on the forever-loaded bowl schedule.
CFP Quarterfinal at the Rose Bowl Game Presented by Prudential: Alabama–Oklahoma winner vs. No. 1 Indiana (Jan. 1)
Generally speaking, I remain of the belief that the College Football Playoff quarterfinals should be at home stadiums and that the four bowls currently used for the quarterfinals should be used to pair off the top eight non-playoff teams in the most attractive possible matchups. This year, we could have gotten a Texas-USC Rose Bowl, or Vanderbilt in the Sugar Bowl, or maybe a postseason Holy War between BYU and Utah in the Cotton Bowl. (And hey, would Notre Dame have so quickly opted out of bowl participation if the promise of a Notre Dame-Michigan Orange Bowl loomed instead? Perhaps, but go with me here.)
I’m not the biggest fan of these bowls basically being used as neutral-site venues for a playoff game. I remember last year’s incredible Arizona State-Texas quarterfinal, for instance, but I had to think for a moment to remember that it was technically also the Peach Bowl. To me that almost dilutes the value of these major bowls.
The best way around this problem, however, is when teams such as Indiana or Texas Tech — college football’s greatest usurpers at the moment — are involved. Indiana and Ohio State played in a Big Ten championship game last week that had almost no playoff consequences, but you couldn’t tell that to Indiana fans who desperately wanted to see their team both pull one over on the Buckeyes for the first time since 1988 and win a share of their first Big Ten title (and earn their first Rose Bowl berth) since 1967. The Hoosiers will play — and be favored against — a college football blue blood there, too, be it Oklahoma or Alabama. They will obviously hope to play two more games after this one, but this will still feel like an awfully big deal.
Texas Tech, meanwhile, will be playing in its first Orange Bowl. It is an injustice that the Red Raiders weren’t sent to the far closer Cotton Bowl — Ohio State was sent there instead, and there’s a chance it could create a bit of a home-field advantage for the Buckeyes’ opponent if they face Texas A&M there — but it is still a neat rarity for a program that is successfully spending its way into the big time.
For all the problems facing this sport at the moment, we could see Indiana winning the Rose Bowl and Texas Tech winning the Orange Bowl, clinching a semifinal appearance against each other and assuring that one of them will play the national title. That’s pretty cool. (Granted, we also could end up with Alabama-Oregon or something far more familiar.)
CFP Quarterfinal at the Allstate Sugar Bowl: Tulane–Ole Miss winner vs. No. 3 Georgia (Jan. 1)
It is a delightful work of symmetry that we have usurpers on one side of the bracket and the heaviest of heavyweights on the other. Of the past four national titles, Ohio State and Georgia have won three. The Buckeyes are the defending champs, and for all of the talk about parity in the SEC, the Bulldogs, national champs in 2021 and 2022, have won three of the last four conference titles and have played for seven of the last eight.
Ohio State is playing in the Cotton Bowl for the third straight season — even if last year’s win over Texas very much falls into the “it was a semifinal in Arlington more than it was the Cotton Bowl” category — and is visiting Jerry World for the fifth time in nine years. No matter how familiar the Buckeyes are with the terrain, however, they won’t be that familiar with their opponent: They’ll either be playing Texas A&M for the first time since the 1999 Sugar Bowl or Miami for the first time since 2011.
Georgia, meanwhile, will be either playing a Cinderella — if Tulane can avenge a blowout loss to Ole Miss early in 2025 — or facing a rematch of one of the SEC’s best games of 2025. The Dawgs went on a 17-0 run over the final 13 minutes to beat Lane Kiffin’s Rebels 43-35 on Oct. 18. Granted, they’re not Kiffin’s Rebels anymore, and a lot will have changed in two months. But either upstarts will pull upsets in the Cotton and Sugar Bowls, or we’ll get our first Ohio State-Georgia game since their incredible 2022 playoff game in Atlanta.
I ended up with five different reasons to pick these five games. Boise State-Washington is a pretty fun regional semi-rivalry that tends to produce either fun, tight Boise State wins or statement blowouts from UW. Both the Broncos and Huskies, meanwhile, are young enough to be hoping for big things in 2026, and both could use a positive result as a nice springboard.
California-Hawai’i might as well be called the JKS Bowl. Cal quarterback Jaron-Keawe Sagapolutele, a native of Ewa Beach, Hawai’i, has committed to returning to Berkeley next season — despite the fact that we don’t know what offensive coordinator new head coach Tosh Lupoi is going to hire — and he gets a homecoming game of sorts back on the islands.
Pitt-ECU is just going to be a mess. A wonderful mess. The Panthers and Pirates played two of last season’s wildest bowls — Pitt lost a six-overtime slugfest to Toledo, ECU won a brawl-plagued (or brawl-blessed?) rivalry game over NC State — and they both tend to live right on the line between aggression and a total lack of control. Hell yeah.
Texas-Michigan is, quite simply, a helmet game. I’m a fan of underdogs, and I preach the value of college football socialism as much as anyone, but I’m allowed to enjoy helmet games.
Vandy-Iowa means that the final chapter in the Diego Pavia story will come against a physical and often confusing Iowa defense and a generally underrated Hawkeyes team. This should be a max-effort game from both sides, too.
SRS Distribution Las Vegas Bowl: No. 15 Utah vs. Nebraska (Dec. 31)
Granted, the First Team Out of the 2025 CFP, Notre Dame, isn’t playing in the postseason at all. But the likes of BYU, Texas, Vandy, Utah and American Conference title game loser North Texas dealt with their share of disappointment too. Who uses the snub and/or letdowns as fuel, and who’s already punted on the season?
Disappointment Bowls, Part 2 (disappointing 2025 campaigns)
Penn State, Clemson, LSU, Arizona State, Tennessee and Illinois all began the season in the preseason AP top 15, and they’re all currently unranked. For Penn State and Clemson, the disappointments came early in the season, and they spent the latter portion of the year gathering themselves and trying to make something of the campaign. The Nittany Lions rallied to win their last three games to reach bowl eligibility, and the Tigers won their last four to finish 7-5. The Pinstripe Bowl winner will therefore actually finish the season feeling pretty good about itself, all things considered. Arizona State might, too, considering the Sun Devils could still end up 9-4 despite an injury to quarterback Sam Leavitt derailing their hopes.
The 2026 Heisman race begins
Bucked Up LA Bowl Hosted by Gronk: Washington (Demond Williams Jr.) vs. Boise State (Dec. 13)
Sheraton Hawai’i Bowl: California (Jaron-Keawe Sagapolutele) vs. Hawai’i (Dec. 24)
Ohio State’s Julian Sayin and Jeremiah Smith (and Bo Jackson?), Georgia’s Gunner Stockton, Ole Miss’ Trinidad Chambliss and Kewan Lacy, Miami’s Malachi Toney, Texas A&M’s Marcel Reed and other potential 2026 Heisman candidates will be plying their trade in the CFP. Oregon’s Dante Moore, too, if he doesn’t go pro. But despite being outside of the playoff’s realm, other potential candidates will have a chance to build plenty of 2026 buzz. Can you imagine what will happen if, say, Arch Manning throws for 300-plus on Michigan? You thought this year’s buzz was loud?
Embrace the silliness
Bucked Up LA Bowl Hosted by Gronk: Boise State vs. Washington (Dec. 13)
It’s OK to admit it: For some games, the teams, players and coaches are just pawns for other types of entertainment value. Boise State-Washington could be very entertaining on its own, but it’s going to be awash with Rob Gronkowski appearances, too. The same goes for the Snoop Dogg Arizona Bowl.
Either Utah State’s Bronco Mendenhall or Washington State interim coach Jesse Bobbit will get showered with french fries at the end of the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl. The winner of the Bush’s Boca Raton Bowl of Beans — a real thing! — allegedly won’t get showered with beans, but there’s still time for important people to change their minds on that one. And at this point, the lore of the Pop-Tarts Bowl and Mayo Bowl are about as well-known as the sport itself.

Ending Year 1 with a bang
The transfer portal has redefined what it means to be a first-year coach. Either by choice or by necessity, you can now almost re-craft your entire roster right out of the gate. This goes horribly for some, obviously, but not even including some schools such as Washington State, where the first-year guy has already left, we have a number of first-year success stories looking to keep the positivity going.
People of a certain age (read: mine) will forever remember Prairie View A&M as the school that lost an epic 80 straight games in the 1980s and 1990s. The Panthers have seen successful since then — four SWAC West division titles, two SWAC titles — but now they’ll get their first Celebration Bowl spotlight thanks to last week’s upset of Jackson State in the SWAC title game. And they got here with a first-year coach who could become a very big name soon.
Tremaine Jackson is 50-15 in his short time as a head coach, and in the past two years he has brought Valdosta State to the Division II national title game and won the SWAC with Prairie View. PVAMU will face second-year coach Chennis Berry and SC State, and my SP+ ratings have the game as almost a perfect toss-up. A great game to start bowl season.
I wanted to isolate these two because of underrated bitterness: Jacksonville State and Troy are in-state rivals who will be playing each other in Mobile, Alabama, right in between the two schools. That one should be feisty enough that it almost made my favorite bowls list. Meanwhile, App State and Georgia Southern are former FCS powers that don’t like each other much either, and their first game this season, a 25-23 Eagles win, was great.
Snoop Dogg Arizona Bowl: Fresno State (Matt Entz) vs. Miami (Ohio) (Dec. 27)
Lockheed Martin Armed Forces Bowl: Rice (Scott Abell) vs. Texas State (Jan. 2)
Duke’s Mayo Bowl: Wake Forest (Jake Dickert) vs. Mississippi State (Jan. 2)
Finishing strong
One method I enjoy for measuring which teams are particularly hot or cold at a given time is taking a weighted five-game average of how much teams are over- or underachieving against SP+ projections (weighted so that the most recent game takes on five times weight, the second-most recent game four times weight and so on).
At the end of the regular season, there were 15 teams with a weighted average of plus-9 PPG or better. That includes three playoff teams (Texas Tech, Tulane and Miami) and teams such as Wisconsin and Oklahoma State, which finished far short of bowl eligibility. But a few other teams, listed below with their PPG overachievement, could head into the offseason feeling like they have major momentum.
Famous Idaho Potato Bowl: Washington State (+10.9) vs. Utah State (Dec. 22)
SERVPRO First Responder Bowl: Florida International (+16.2) vs. UTSA (Dec. 26)
Snoop Dogg Arizona Bowl: Fresno State (+9.2) vs. Miami (Ohio) vs. (Dec. 27)
Trust & Will Holiday Bowl: No. 17 Arizona (+11.0) vs. SMU (Jan. 2)
USF and Washington State have already lost their head coaches — man oh man, does Wazzu deserve a period of time with some semblance of stability — but at the very least, FIU, Fresno State and Arizona have a chance to build major offseason positivity.
Redemption time
On the flip side, a few teams limped into bowl season at the end of a run of underachievement. Here are five games featuring teams that hope a bowl will turn bad feelings around. (Three of them already have interim coaches.)
AutoZone Liberty Bowl: Navy vs. Cincinnati (Jan. 2)
The Cincinnati staff and UConn interim staff will both try to navigate the distractions of bowl season (and the looming portal season) while studying how to defend very annoying option offenses. Have fun with that.
7-6 sounds much better than 6-7 (and 6-7 sounds better than 5-8)
Quite a few teams had to eke out bowl eligibility and will now try to finish above .500. Meanwhile, recent times have brought us something new: a 5-8 record, obviously earned only by teams that sneak into a bowl at 5-7, then lose. Six teams belong to the 5-8 Club — 2016 North Texas, 2019 Army, 2021 Rutgers, 2022 Rice, 2023 Hawai’i and 2024 Louisiana Tech — and three teams will be attempting to avoid the ignominy. Rice will be looking to avoid becoming the first two-time member.
Lockheed Martin Armed Forces Bowl: Rice (5-7) vs. Texas State (6-6) (Jan. 2)
Duke’s Mayo Bowl: Wake Forest vs. Mississippi State (5-7) (Jan. 2)
First year, first bowl
68 Ventures Bowl: Louisiana vs. Delaware (Dec. 13)
Xbox Bowl: Missouri State vs. Arkansas State (Dec. 18)
Delaware and Missouri State both enjoyed solid FBS debut campaigns. Delaware needed tight wins over UConn, Middle Tennessee and Louisiana Tech and a season-ending walloping of UTEP to reach 6-6, and Missouri State began the year 2-3 before ripping off five straight wins and finishing 7-5. Now both the Blue Hens (3-point underdogs to Louisiana) and Bears (2.5-point favorites over potential regional rival Arkansas State) hope to boast a perfect bowl record — well, a perfect record in FBS bowls, anyway: MSU went 0-4 in small-school bowls, most recently falling to Stephen F. Austin in the 1989 Pecan Bowl — a few days from now.
There are plenty of dating apps out there and apps that turn your chaos of work obligations into easily actionable lists. There is also a growing number of apps that help you make new friends. The pitch for Rodeo is a bit different in that it uses AI to help you schedule activities with your existing friends.
The company was started by a pair of former Hinge execs who felt it was more difficult than it should be to make plans with friends. Parenting, work, 37 different group chats — all of this can lead to things like maintaining your relationships falling by the wayside.
Rodeo can take social media posts for events or restaurants, or even just screenshots of group chats, and streamline the act of turning them into actual plans with friends. For instance, if you upload a screenshot of an Instagram ad for a movie, it will pull in theaters where it’s playing and showtimes and let you buy tickets. There is also a shortcut to send an invite to a friend you want to “wrangle” into your plans.
Activities can also be sorted into lists for things you might want to save for later, like good date night restaurants, or things to do with your old college buddies, like a local paintball spot. Those lists can be collaborative too, so you can invite all your former frat bros to a specific list to make suggestions.
Somewhat surprisingly, the founders Sam Levy and Tim MacGougan aren’t loudly advertising the AI component of their app. While LLMs and other AI-adjacent tech are all the rage in Silicon Valley, it seems these two got the memo that Americans want AI to stay out of their personal lives. However, it is the AI element that sets Rodeo apart. Sharing collaborative lists, bookmarking restaurants to go to, and sending calendar invites for events to friends is something anyone can do with just a Gmail account. Rodeo is saving you the hassle of manually pulling in all the details for events or venues and turning them into invites and actions.
The company isn’t completely avoiding buzzwords. According to Business Insider, Levy describes the app as “a ‘second brain’ for planning activities with friends and family.” So Rodeo is clearly hoping that the obsession with organization that has driven the success of tools like Notion, Obsidian, and My Mind will work for its fledgling social app.
Rodeo is available as an invite-only beta right now, but you can download the iOS app to get on the waiting list.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — If Thursday night’s game was the last one Travis Kelce played at Arrowhead Stadium, he sure tried to make it memorable.
The Kansas City Chiefs tight end had only five catches for 36 yards against the Denver Broncos playing alongside third-string quarterback Chris Oladokun while starter Patrick Mahomes and backup Gardner Minshew were out with knee injuries. But several of those catches came in the closing minutes, nearly rallying the Chiefs to what would have been a stunning upset of the Broncos.
Kelce & Co. wound up losing 20-13 in a game in which they were nearly two-touchdown underdogs. But it was a gutsy display by Kelce in a career filled with them.
The four-time All-Pro, who is expected to announce soon after the season whether he is retiring, could have hung up the cleats a couple of weeks ago, when the reigning AFC champions were eliminated from playoff contention for the first time in a decade.
After going to five Super Bowls — including the past three — and winning three championship rings, the 36-year-old Kelce instead showed he had too much pride to quit on a lost season. He played in a humiliating loss at the lowly Tennessee Titans last week and was one of the few bright spots on Christmas for an offense that finished with 139 yards.
“A whole lot of emotions,” Kelce said afterward. “You’ve got everybody in the world watching you. You get to go out there with the young guys on prime-time television. Young guys getting an opportunity to taste what this NFL life is like.”
As for retirement?
“I’ll let that be a decision I’ll make with my family, friends, the Chiefs organization when the time comes,” Kelce said.
He was the final player introduced Thursday night, following Oladokun out of the tunnel. As red lights flashed across the field, Kelce emerged from the fog with his signature bow-and-arrow entrance gesture toward a festive holiday crowd, and fans predictably roared in delight — perhaps for the last time — as No. 87 took the field.
“You only get a few of those [occasions] where you get to stand there and appreciate [60,000], 70,000 Chiefs fans cheering for you,” Kelce said. “I always embrace that moment.”
In a suite high above, his fiancée, pop star Taylor Swift, watched him perform. So did Mahomes and Minshew, who took in the game together from a suite. Mahomes sustained torn knee ligaments two weeks ago; Minshew did the same last week.
“You feel the generations of happiness and the love that [the fans] have,” Kelce said. “It’s a beautiful thing, man. It’s something I know I’ll cherish forever, whether it’s coming out of the tunnel or just making a big play for them. That’s why we love Arrowhead.”
Kelce has played 97 games inside the stadium over the course of a 13-year career. He has caught 645 passes at Arrowhead, including the playoffs, which is the third most by any player at a single facility (behind Jerry Rice and Larry Fitzgerald) since the AFL-NFL merger.
Now, the question is whether Kelce will play next week in the Chiefs’ season finale at the Las Vegas Raiders.
He needs just 10 yards receiving to reach 13,000 for his career, and he could extend his franchise record — and the longest active streak in the NFL — by catching a pass in his 191st game next weekend. He also could go out with a win, rather than having lost five straight and seven of his past eight games.
Or maybe Kelce will surprise everyone and come back for one more campaign.
“We’ve been through so much together,” Chiefs defensive tackle Chris Jones said, making his desire clear. “Just one more [season]. Just one more.”
