Chiefs’ $1.15B stadium plan hits major turning point: Could it impact Travis Kelce’s future?

The Kansas City Chiefs are at a major crossroads, with team owner Clark Hunt now facing a deadline-driven decision that could reshape the franchise’s future – and potentially affect the fate of stars like Travis Kelce.

A proposed $1.15 billion renovation to Arrowhead Stadium in Missouri has reignited the debate about whether the Chiefs will stay in their longtime home or jump state lines to Kansas.

The drama began after Jackson County voters rejected a sales tax extension in April 2024 that would have helped fund upgrades to both Arrowhead and the Royals’ new stadium project.

The setback left Clark Hunt and the Chiefs looking for alternative funding – quickly drawing interest from Kansas lawmakers, who countered with an ambitious $3 billion stadium plan to bring the Chiefs across the border.

The Kansas proposal, which includes a domed stadium and long-term tax incentives, expires at the end of June. Meanwhile, Missouri has responded with Senate Bill 3, which offers to cover 50% of a $1.15 billion renovation to Arrowhead, aimed at keeping the franchise rooted in the state for the next 30 years.

What does it mean for Kelce and the fans?

The pressure is mounting, not only on Hunt but also on players like Travis Kelce, whose ties to the city and its iconic stadium are deeply personal. Kelce has previously expressed how much Arrowhead means to him.

“Man, I’ll tell you what, there’s something about Arrowhead, man,” said Kelce in 2023. “It’s such a special place. It’s such a special, you know, unique atmosphere.”

While Hunt says his “first choice” is to stay in Kansas City, he’s made clear that the team must consider all options. With just weeks remaining before Kansas’ offer expires, both states are pulling out all the stops.

A move would be historic, potentially ending the Chiefs’ decades-long era at Arrowhead. For Kelce and fans alike, the coming days could determine whether nostalgia or new opportunity will define the next chapter of Chiefs football.

Caitlin Clark to make her return to Fever lineup vs. Liberty after missing five games with quad strain

Getty Images Caitlin Clark will make her return to the court this Saturday, when the Indiana Fever host the New York Liberty at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, the team announced Friday. Clark was initially expected to miss four games after suffering a quad strain during the 90-88 loss to the Liberty on May 24, but instead missed five contests. She said rushing back wouldn't be "worth it," but now feels good enough to return to the lineup. Clark was averaging 19 points, 6 rebounds and 9.3 assists per game before the quad strain injury. She actually hadn't missed a game since high school, and her inactive status on May 28 vs. the Washington Mystics snapped a streak of 185 consecutive games played. With Caitlin Clark and Tyrese Haliburton leading Fever and Pacers, Indy has become center of basketball world Jack Maloney The 4-5 Fever are 2-3 […]
