Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce dominated as the team downed the Baltimore Ravens 17-10 in Sunday's AFC Championship contest, catching all 11 of his targets for 116 yards and a touchdown. Kelce's second half may have been quiet, but his monster first half had a little bit of everything. The 34-year-old All-Pro came down with a clutch fourth-down pass, showed off tremendous body control to reel in his score, made a bit of a circus catch with quarterback Patrick Mahomes on the run, and set a new postseason record for all-time receptions by passing Jerry Rice on his seventh grab. Kelce hauled in each of his nine targets for 96 yards before calming down, but Sunday marked his first outing with double-digit catches since Week 7. With the win, Kelce and the Chiefs moved on to their fourth Super Bowl in the last five years and will defend their crown when they meet the San Francisco 49ers in Las Vegas on Feb. 11 for the big game.
Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce enjoyed his best fantasy effort since a Week 7 eruption with two touchdowns during the Divisional Round victory over the Buffalo Bills, but he's had no problem thrashing the Bills in recent years. In Sunday's AFC Championship contest against the Baltimore Ravens, however, Kelce will encounter a much more difficult task. Per DraftKings scoring, Baltimore's defense ranks fourth against TEs. But in five career games against the Ravens, Kelce has caught at least six balls and exceeded 70 yards in each outing. The 34-year-old superstar's $6,600 salary tops his position on Sunday, and only George Kittle holds a candle to Kelce in terms of DFS status. With rookie receiver Rashee Rice lined up to frequently battle with All-Pro defensive back Kyle Hamilton in the slot, quarterback Patrick Mahomes may need to turn to Kelce early and often to combat this vaunted Ravens unit.
Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce picked the right time for his first two-touchdown game of the year as his team escaped Sunday's Divisional Round with a 27-24 win over the Buffalo Bills, leading his team with 75 receiving yards on five catches (six targets). Kelce delivered two strong hookups with quarterback Patrick Mahomes in the first half, and the superstar signal-caller just missed him in the corner of the end zone in the second quarter. But Mahomes connected with him later in the period, finding Kelce wide open on busted coverage. Kelce later took a short screen pass near the goal line and found an opening in traffic for another score, with Sunday marking the 34-year-old All-Pro's first game with a TD since Week 10. In three career playoff outings against the Bills, Kelce now owns 26 catches for 289 yards and five TDs. He'll hope for a repeat performance when the Chiefs visit the Baltimore Ravens in next Sunday's AFC Championship meeting.
Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce caught seven passes for 71 yards in the wild-card win over the Miami Dolphins, but his late-season case of the drops dragged into the playoffs. Kelce committed the third-most drops (six) among TEs in 2023, tallying two more in his last time out. Closing the regular season with the fewest yards per catch (10.6) of his decorated career, the 34-year-old four-time All-Pro remains fantasy's PPR TE1 but has looked his age at times during the campaign's second half. Rookie Rashee Rice is perhaps the superior DFS play in the Divisional Round against the Buffalo Bills, but Kelce has utterly dominated Buffalo in their last six meetings all told. Piling up 46 catches, 527 yards, and six touchdowns, Kelce is averaging a whopping 7.7 catches and 87.8 yards over this period. With Kelce topping the prices at $6,000 on DraftKings, DFS players are searching for an encore if paying up for the slate's top choice.
Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce's scoreless drought dragged into the playoffs in Saturday's 26-7 wild-card victory over the Miami Dolphins, but he hauled in seven of his 10 targets for 71 yards. Patrick Mahomes tried to get the struggling Kelce involved early, and despite his strong five catches for 55 yards in the box score during the first half, Kelce left some yards on the field. The 34-year-old four-time All-Pro came down with a key 11-yard pass on third-and-long during K.C.'s first series and then jump-started a scoring drive in the second quarter with a 22-yard gain, but he committed at least two fairly blatant drops on Saturday. Kelce also witnessed a six-game postseason scoring streak get snapped against the Dolphins. In search of his first touchdown since Week 11, Kelce will next do battle either in Buffalo against the Bills or at Arrowhead Stadium versus the Houston Texans for next weekend's Divisional showdown.
