KC TE Travis Kelce - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 at Buffalo Bills

Travis Kelce kept up his dominating season with a season-high game in yards. Kelce finished 8-108-1 on 12 targets last week, giving him a score in three of his five starts. Kelce has also hit 70 receiving yards in four straight games as he sets himself apart from others at his position. To make things even better, Kelce faces a Bills defense this week that's given up the most receiving yards to tight ends so far this season. Kelce is already a must-start play, but expect another huge performance from Kelce in a great matchup. He's an easy TE1 in Week 6.

KC TE Travis Kelce - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 vs. Las Vegas Raiders

Travis Kelce finished with a season-low three receptions last week, but he still finished with a solid 70 yards. He also saw a healthy seven targets, so he's still heavily involved in this offense despite the low catch number. This week he faces a Raiders defense that has allowed the second-fewest receptions (11) and third-fewest receiving yards (100) to tight ends this season. Although the Raiders haven't really faced a top-tier tight end this season. Kelce should be fine, and should be viewed as a must-start TE1 this week.

KC TE Travis Kelce - Week 4 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 vs. Patriots

Travis Kelce had another productive outing in Week 3, finishing 6-87 on seven targets. He failed to find the endzone for the first time this season, but that's still great production from a tight end. He does get a tough matchup this week against a Patriots defense that's allowed the third-fewest receptions (8) and fourth-fewest receiving yards (73) to tight ends this season. However, Kelce should be able to overcome the bad matchup. Trust him as your TE1 in Week 4.

KC TE Travis Kelce - Week 3 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 at Baltimore Ravens

Travis Kelce saw a ridiculous 14 targets in Week 2 and turned them into a nice 9-90-1 performance. He's now finished with at least five receptions, 50 yards and a touchdown in three of his last four regular season games. While that kind of pace will be tough to keep up, it does prove just how good of an option Kelce is. He gets a tough matchup this week against the Ravens, but he's a must-start option every week. His role could potentially be even better this week if Sammy Watkins is sidelined with a concussion.

KC TE Travis Kelce - Week 2 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 at Los Angeles Chargers

Travis Kelce proved why he's been fantasy's No. 1 tight end for so many years, starting 2020 off with a 6-50-1 game. He caught all six of his targets, scored a touchdown, and remained a key part in the Chiefs' deadly passing attack. He gets a fairly tough matchup against the Chargers this week. But he played well against L.A. in his first matchup against the Chargers last year, finishing 7-92-1. Kelce is too good of a tight end to get concerned about matchups, and should be trusted as a must-start option at the tight end position.

KC TE Travis Kelce - Week 1 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 1 vs. Houston Texans

Travis Kelce led all tight ends in fantasy scoring last season, just like he did in 2018, 2017 and 2016. Kelce was already an elite talent, and pairing him with the league's best quarterback in Patrick Mahomes only made him better as he's posted his two career-best seasons (in receptions & yards) in 2018 and 2019. He'll face a Texans team in Week 1 that he destroyed in the 2019 playoffs, finishing with a 10-134-3 game. Don't expect that kind of game from him, but he can still be trusted as a must-start TE1 vs. Houston.

KC TE Travis Kelce - 2020 Fantasy Football Outlook

Fantasy Upside
Travis Kelce finished as the No. 1 tight end in fantasy last season, just like he did in 2018, 2017 and 2016. He was already one of the most dominant at his position, and then he got Patrick Mahomes as his quarterback. His last two seasons with Mahomes have been the two best of his career, and he’s seen 286 targets in that span. Kelce was incredibly consistent in 2019 as well, finishing with 50+ yards in every game but two. He also had seven or more receptions in nine games.

Fantasy Downside
Kelce had a down year in touchdowns, scoring just five times last season. He had just three total catches from inside the 10 despite having 12 targets (second-highest among all players) in that area, a 25% catch percentage. Kelce also turns 31 this season. We typically see tight ends hit a steep decline once they turn 32 or 33.

2020 Bottom Line
Since the tight end position is so shallow (Jason Witten was the No. 11 TE last season), having an elite option like Kelce is incredibly valuable. We expect him to produce around the same numbers he did last season. We’re also projecting an increase in touchdowns as it seems unlikely Kelce will repeat his poor 25% catching percentage inside the 10 again. He’s getting looks in the red zone, he just didn’t convert them. If he can catch just a few more of those targets, he’ll be in perfect shape.
