Travis Kelce Week 3 Outlook - Chiefs at Falcons

By Mick Ciallela (Fantrax), Wed, Sep 18th 2024, 11:36pm EDT

I am usually not one for sounding alarm bells in September, but fantasy managers have to be at least a little concerned with the lack of involvement in the passing game from Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce. The Chiefs have not needed to throw the ball a ton thus far, but Patrick Mahomes has only targeted Kelce on seven of 53 pass attempts. Kansas City should have to rely more on Mahomes in the coming weeks, with Isiah Pacheco on Injured Reserve. That should trickle down to Kelce, perhaps as soon as Week 3. Tight ends have caught 11-of-13 targets against the Falcons so far this year. An uptick in volume in a favorable matchup could be just what the fantasy doctor ordered for Kelce.
