Three-time Super Bowl champion tight end Travis Kelce has become the highest paid tight end in NFL history, signing a monster two-year $US34.25 million ($A52.5m) extension with the Kansas City Chiefs.

While he may arguably be better known as Taylor Swift’s boyfriend, Kelce has made a few waves of his own as he continues his professional relationship with NFL superstar Patrick Mahomes, at least until the end of the 2027 season.

Kelce has been in the shadow of his global superstar girlfriend in recent times as her 11th albumThe Tortured Poets Departmentcontinues to break records while she was also officially became a billionaire.

Even his brother Jason, who he appears with on the New Heights podcast, revealed he would be joining the ESPN NFL broadcast team recently after announcing his retirement from the Philadelphia Eagles at the end of last season.

But it’s finally time for the 34-year-old to come to the fore as he landed the bumper deal.

“Back at it again baby,” Kelce said in a video posted by the Chiefs on X.

“Feels good to be in KC. I remember coming here 12 years ago, man. It’s an honour and a pleasure and I can’t wait to get after it these next two years but no better than right now getting fired up for this year.

“Just got out on the field with the boys. We’re back at it baby. Chiefs forever.”

The nine-time Pro Bowler and three-time Super Bowl winner has been with Kansas City since he was drafted with the 63rd pick of the 2013 NFL Draft.

Kelce just missed an eighth consecutive 1,000-yard receiving season in 2023, catching 93 passes for 984 yards and five touchdowns.

“I told yall I’ll never let him leave!! Congrats my guy! @tkelce,” Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes posted on X.

In 159 career games over 11 NFL seasons, all with the Chiefs, Kelce has caught 907 passes for 11,328 yards and 74 touchdowns.

“We signed the greatest tight end ever to a new contract,” the Chiefs posted on X.

Kelce has caught an NFL record 165 passes in the playoffs for 1,903 yards and 19 touchdowns for a Chiefs squad that has reached the AFC Championship six consecutive years and the Super Bowl in four of the past five seasons.

The Chiefs won their second Super Bowl in a row in February and also won the 2020 Super Bowl.

Swift attended many of Kelce’s games, often watching alongside his mother, bringing the NFL and Chiefs in particular extra attention from Swift’s devoted fan following.
