Kelce joined star actors David Spade and Dana Carvey on their podcast "SuperFly" and was asked what is next for him in his career.
He shared that he is still in the air about his decision to retire despite fielding offers and interviews from TV networks.
"I don't know. I'm trying to figure it out right now. Right now. Exploring different opportunities if I end up retiring.
"Still working out and staying in shape if I end up playing again."

Kelce continued to talk about how he has received a lot of advice recently from former players and how they have handled the transition from on the field to off.
He recently had ex-Eagles teammates Chris Long and Beau Allen on his "New Heights" podcast, and they expressed that retirement is a "huge existential crisis."
"I miss y'all man. More than anything, it's you can get in a big room full of people and fill your cup socially but we're different.
"We're just different, for all our shortcomings and ways that all our wives and significant others get annoyed at us.

"But we just have really specific mindsets. So it is the locker room but also the absence of my kind of guy.
"I also think it's a huge existential crisis. Whether you think you're ready or not, your life changes," Long expressed.
Jason Kelce's reaction to Shaquille O'Neal's retirement advice speaks volume over future and NFL fans 'know decision'Kelce was also given advice from NBA legend Shaquille O'Neal, who told him to prioritize his family as he ponders his NFL future.
In an interview with Kelce, the NBA icon said his "dumba** mistakes" caused him to live a solitary life.
"I lost my whole family. I'm in a 100,000-square-foot house by myself," the 15-time All-Star said.
It's unclear whether Kelce's playing career is over, as he refuted the idea several times, but his teammate and Eagles left tackle Jordan Mailata thinks he's played his final snap alongside Kelce.
"There's no shot," Mailata told NBC Sports Philadelphia during Super Bowl week about whether Kelce would return.
