Travis Kelce Week 5 Outlook - Saints at Chiefs

By Mick Ciallela (Fantrax), Thu, Oct 3rd 2024, 4:09am EDT

After averaging just 23 receiving yards per game through the first three weeks, Travis Kelce finally broke through last week with an 89-yard effort. Of seemingly greater import is the injury to star wide receiver Rashee Rice. We are still waiting for a definitive word on the severity of the injury. But Kelce may have to reclaim his spot as Patrick Mahomes' top weapon. That puts him back in the overall TE1 conversation, especially given the inconsistency at the position, as well as players like Dallas Goedert and Sam LaPorta having a bye this week.
