”Kelce is undeniably slowing down at 36 years old,” PFF’s Dalton Wasserman and Max Chadwick said of the future Hall-of-Fame tight end. “He recorded the fewest receiving yards in his career in 2024, and the second-fewest this past season. But, an aging Kelce is still one of the better tight ends in football. In fact, his 1,674 receiving yards over the past two seasons are still fourth in the NFL.”
Kelce is one of the best tight ends to play in the NFL, and still proved to be a supremely effective offensive weapon in 2025 despite the effects of age showing themselves in his performance. The former Cincinnati Bearcat went for 851 receiving yards and caught five touchdown passes last season — a down year for him — and yet he is still considered to be one of the best at his position.
