Travis Kelce - English
Who is the greatest tight end of all time-Rob Gronkowski or Travis Kelce? Each player boasts remarkable feats, statistics, and achievements that make a compelling case for the title of GOAT. While fans passionately argue over their choice, one of the position’s all-time greats has weighed in to settle the debate.
Kyle Rudolph, retiring after a 12-year NFL career-10 of those seasons spent with the Minnesota Vikings-is making his opinion known. With 482 receptions, 4,773 yards, and 50 touchdowns, Rudolph’s stellar career lends credibility to his perspective on the GOAT discussion.
Rob Gronkowski presents a strong argument, with four Super Bowl wins alongside quarterback Tom Brady, serving as a cornerstone of Bill Belichick’s offensive strategy.
Meanwhile, Travis Kelce boasts three championship rings and is an essential weapon in Patrick Mahomes’ arsenal, thriving under Andy Reid’s game plans. Both players are legendary, yet Rudolph approaches the debate from a different angle.
The Mount Rushmore of tight ends
In a recent interview with Starcade Media, Rudolph candidly shared his thoughts on the tight end GOAT debate. “If you’re going off pure stats, it’s Travis,” he stated. Indeed, Kelce’s 1,004 receptions for 12,151 yards and 77 touchdowns outpace Gronkowski’s 621 catches, 9,286 yards, and 92 touchdowns.
But Rudolph doesn’t plan to award such a significant nomination based solely on scoreboards. “There’s a lot more to the tight end position than just the numbers.” Gronkowski was among the best blockers of his era, and Rudolph believes that, had Gronk played as long as Tony González-17 seasons-his statistics would have been unmatched.
Ultimately, Rudolph remarked that designating a single GOAT is nearly impossible. “So, I think, when you look at the Mount Rushmore of tight ends, these guys are all on it and deservedly so.”
Kelce’s future: A farewell nearing?
After 13 years in the league, Travis Kelce finds himself closer to the end of his career than his prime. Speculation about his retirement surged following Kansas City’sSuper Bowl LIX loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, but Kelce put rumors to rest by announcing his return.
Kelce’s two-year, $34.3 million contract extension, signed in 2024, secures him through another season with the Chiefs. Yet, questions remain: Will this be Kelce’s final chapter, or will he defy expectations and continue playing until his body demands a break?

Japonský fotbalista Miura nastoupil do rekordní 40. sezony
Miura je již několik let podle statistik nejstarším profesionálně hrajícím fotbalistou, jeho kariéra začala už v roce 1986. Letos v lednu však po zranění nohy na několik měsíců vypadl ze sestavy.„Doufám, že si ještě zahraji a ukážu svůj charakter,“ řekl Miura bezprostředně po svém zranění agentuře Kjódó. Spekulace o možném konci kariéry vyvrátil v neděli.Kariéru zahájil v brazilském Santosu, protože v jeho vlasti tehdy profesionální fotbalová soutěž neexistovala. Později si zahrál za FC Janov či Dinamo Záhřeb. V reprezentaci nastoupil Miura v letech 1990 až 2000 k 89 zápasům a vstřelil 55 gólů.
