KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- The Chiefs extended the contract of tight end Travis Kelce for two additional seasons, a source said, keeping the veteran tight end signed through the 2027 season.

Finacial terms of the deal were not immediately available.

Quarterback Patrick Mahomes celebrated the extension for his favorite target by posting to X, "I told yall I'll never let him leave!! Congrats my guy! @tkelce''

Kelce last season fell 16 yards short of his eighth straight 1,000-yard season. Kelce missed the first game of the season with a knee injury and sat out the last game to rest for the playoffs. Seven straight 1,000-yard seasons is a record for his position.

He will turn 35 in October.

Kelce, who has been selected the nine consecutive Pro Bowls and is a four-time first team All-Pro, had 93 receptions for 984 yards and five touchdowns last season.

In the postseason, he added 32 catches for 355 yards and four touchdowns as he helped the Chiefs win a second consecutive Super Bowl and third overall in five seasons.

Kelce, 34, has 907 receptions for 11,328 yards and 74 touchdowns in 11 NFL seasons. In 22 postseason games, he has an NFL record 165 catches for 1,903 yards and 19 touchdowns.

NFL Network first reported the news of the extension.
