Travis Kelce Week 4 Outlook - Chiefs at Chargers

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Sun, Sep 29th 2024, 12:05pm EDT

Panic! Did someone say panic? It's getting close. If not time to press the panic button on the future Hall of Famer. Kelce's usage hasn't been the problem so much as his efficiency. He has handled a 69% route share which isn't great, but it's not damning either. The problem is he has only earned a 12% target share, an 18.8% air-yard share, and a 14.5% first-read share with 0.96 YPRR. These are run-of-the-mill replacement-level numbers in the tight-end world. No, I didn't think we'd be here, but it is what it is. I hope that Kelce can flip the switch at some point, but we have to consider that the switch might be superglued in the off position. It's unlikely to happen this week as the Bolts have held tight ends to the 14th-fewest fantasy points per game and the sixth-lowest yards per reception.
