Underpaid? Maybe. Travis Kelce sure knows the game, but his paycheck might need a playbook refresh. Despite being a top-tier pass catcher, he’s hustling on an average annual payout of $14.3 million. Barely breaking a sweat compared to the top dogs in the receiver market.

Yes, Kelce’s aware he’s playing the game in hard mode, but he’s not spiking the ball on negotiations just yet. He’s learned a lesson or two from the Tyreek Hill saga – ask for more, get traded off. However, A recent mega-million contract in MLB land has Kelce seeing stars.

Travis Kelce drops F-bomb on Otani’s mega-deal

Travis Kelce was left more puzzled than a quarterback facing a Belichick defense when he heard about Shohei Otani’s jaw-dropping $700 million deal with the LA Dodgers. On the latest jam-packed episode of ‘New Heights,’ the Kelce Bros shattered the glass ceiling of disbelief.

Travis, in his signature unfiltered style, dropped a rhetorical bomb, asking, “What in the F**k is really going on with this world. This man made almost three-quarters of a billion dollars. Just went to the other side of LA to play some baseball.”  Can’t blame him for questioning the playbook when Otani just became the Sultan of Swat with the biggest deal in team sports history. A 10-year contract that’s got more twists than a trick play.

Kelce’s catch-cash conundrum: Where’s the wallet?

In the gridiron tale of dollars and sense, Travis Kelce’s paycheck is like a Hail Mary pass. Impressive but not quite the game-changer it should be. His ‘team’ loves to play the salary cap symphony, reminding him how underpaid he is. As one of the NFL’s premier pass-catching maestros, Kelce’s 2020 extension rang in at $57.25 million over four years, netting him $14.3 million a season. Not too shabby, but the guaranteed dollars? Well, they’re sitting on the bench. Currently, he’s rocking the title of the third-highest-paid tight end, but in the world of wideouts, he’s practically throwing a block when it comes to the moolah.

Comparing notes with Tyreek Hill, Kelce’s pulling the short straw. Hill, the top-paid WR, is cashing in at a rate that makes Kelce’s digits do a double take. The plot twist? When Hill raised his salary demands, he got traded to Miami, but instead of drowning in sorrow, he rode the wave straight into a bigger contract, making him the Sultan of Swag in pass-catching circles. Is it time for the Chiefs’ tight end to call a timeout and rethink his game plan? After all, in the NFL, the only thing better than a touchdown dance is a payday victory dance.
