Travis Kelce’s Salary Revealed in New Kansas City Chiefs Contract Deal
Travis Kelce has just scored a huge payday.
Following his new two-year NFL contract with the Kansas City Chiefs on April 29, his agent disclosed the exact amount he will be earning.
Travis, who was originally supposed to make $30.25 million over the next two years with $0 guaranteed, will now be receiving $34.25 million for the next two seasons, as reported by Sportrac. He will get $17 million of that immediately.
“Just confirmed with the agent that Travis Kelce’s contract is not an extension through 2027,” co-founder Michael Ginnitti explained in an April 29 post on X (formerly known as Twitter), “but rather a renegotiated 2-year contract that replaces the final two seasons of his previous deal in KC.”
But that’s not the only exciting news about Travis’ contract. According to Sportrac, the NFL star has also set the record for the highest Average Annual Value (AAV) of any tight end in the league’s history, proving that his girlfriend Taylor Swift wasn’t the only one making historic moves this month.
