Standing side by side, both visibly emotional, Kelce and Mahomes chose their words carefully. There were no jokes. No smiles.

Kelce, clearly fighting emotion, admitted that the season has demanded more than anyone outside the locker room could understand.<\/p>\n<p>Social media exploded within seconds. Chiefs Kingdom split between shock, concern, and raw emotion. Some fans pleaded for calm. Others feared what the announcement might mean for the future of the franchise.

After winning the\u00a0Super Bowl\u00a0three times in six years, the Chiefs will miss the postseason for the first time since 2014.\n<p>Things went south fast during the Chiefs current three-game losing streak, which included losses to the\u00a0Houston Texans\u00a0and\u00a0Dallas Cowboys.\u00a0Big questions are looming about the team\u2019s future, especially the health of star quarterback\u00a0Patrick Mahomes, who suffered a torn ACL against the Chargers.<\/p>\n<p>One player who has maintained his individual performance this season is Kelce, who leads the team with 67 receptions, 797 yards and five touchdowns (tied).
