After winning back-to-back Super Bowls, reality has set in for the Kansas City Chiefs.They got shellacked in Super Bowl LIX by the Philadelphia Eagles and then missed the playoffs this past season — to add insult to injury (or, perhaps, injury to insult), Patrick Mahomes tore his ACL the day the Chiefs were eliminated from playoff contention.Travis Kelce seemed to insinuate that Super Bowl LIX left a bad taste in his mouth, causing his return for what seemed like one more season.Well, he did the same after missing the playoffs and is returning for a 14th year.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMTony Gonzalez of the Kansas City Chiefs walks off the field after a game against the Denver Broncos on Oct.

He's got to be done.I mean, he was playing some good football, but clearly it's not what it was.
Just like with me at the end of my career, it wasn't what it was when I was 27, 28, 29 years old.But he's got that drive.
He wants to play," Gonzalez recently told Fox News Digital."Everybody knows, it's no secret, he's winding down an incredible career.But he is one of the best to ever do it, if not the best.
And it's been fun to watch him play and see all the success he's had on and off the field.I love that guy.
He's such a good dude off the field as well.He's easy to root for."With perhaps a rejuvenated Kelce for what might be his final season, a revamped running game and a fully healthy wide receiver room, Gonzalez believes there is a chance the Chiefs could revert to their old form.Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes look on during an NFL game between the Miami Dolphins and Kansas City Chiefs at Deutsche Bank Park in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, on Nov.
