Chiefs TE Travis Kelce on extension: 'I'm not a guy that holds out'

Travis Kelce, star tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs, signed a record-breaking two-year contract extension worth up to $34.3 million, making him the highest-paid tight end in NFL history. Kelce expressed gratitude for the deal and emphasized his commitment to the team, stating he would not have held out for the contract.

The Chiefs also secured deals with defensive players Chris Jones and Mike Danna while trading cornerback L'Jarius Sneed to the Titans.
