Who Should I Start? Jimmy Graham or Travis Kelce

Free-agent tight end Jimmy Graham wrote on his Instagram account that he's "unsure of what the future holds" after "things ended rather quickly after the season." The 37-year-old returned to the New Orleans Saints last year and played in the NFL after sitting out in 2022 and found the end zone four times on his six catches on the season. Graham only racked up 39 receiving yards in 13 games (two starts). The five-time Pro Bowler was one of the best at his position in his prime with the Saints and Seattle Seahawks earlier in his career, but the 13-year veteran is nearing the end and could officially hang up his cleats this offseason if he doesn't get picked up by another team. If this is the end for Graham, he'd finish his successful NFL career with 719 career catches (1,115 targets) for 8,545 receiving yards and 89 touchdowns in 197 career regular-season games.

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce will face the Philadelphia Eagles in a Super Bowl rematch this Sunday. The 35-year-old reeled in just two passes for 47 yards and a touchdown in their Week 1 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. 37 of Kelce's 47 yards came on his long touchdown catch and run in the fourth quarter. Despite salvaging his fantasy day with a long scoring play, the usage for Kelce in last week's game was concerning, to say the least. Xavier Worthy was knocked out early in the first quarter when he and Kelce collided. Despite the loss of Worthy and the absence of Rashee Rice due to suspension, Kelce was still only targeted four times in 39 pass attempts for Patrick Mahomes. The veteran tight end will have to take on the Eagles, who held him to four catches for 39 yards in the Super Bowl. Kelce is ranked TE5 in our RotoBaller rankings this week, making him a mid-range TE1 despite the matchup. Kelce should still be considered a TE1, but his floor could be much lower than it has been in years past.
