Kyle Rudolph Hangs Up His Cleats

Monday, September 4, 11:06 AM

Two-time Pro Bowl tight end Kyle Rudolph announced on Monday that he will officially retire as a member of the Minnesota Vikings. Rudolph makes the decision after playing 12 seasons in the NFL. Originally a second-round pick of the Vikings in 2011 out of Notre Dame, Rudolph played the first 10 seasons of his career in Minnesota before joining the New York Giants in 2021 and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last year. He'll finish with 482 career receptions on 709 targets for 4,773 yards and 50 touchdowns in 165 games (145 starts). In just nine games (zero starts) for Tampa in 2022, the 33-year-old had three catches for 28 yards and one touchdown. Both of his Pro Bowl campaigns came in Minnesota -- in 2012 and in 2017.

Travis Kelce News

Travis Kelce Should Be Relied Upon In Vegas

Friday, October 2, 11:16 AM

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce will travel to Las Vegas to take on the Raiders in Week 4. Kelce appears to have found the fountain of youth because he's turned back the clock to start the 2026 season. The veteran tight end has looked explosive in open space and has now scored in back-to-back games. Kelce will look to continue his hot streak as the Chiefs face a tough Raiders defense. The Raiders will have the advantage of playing at home, but Kelce and the Chiefs are still road favorites. Kelce may not earn 10+ targets every week anymore, but he's still Patrick Mahomes' most trusted target when the field shrinks, giving him a good chance to score every week. Kelce is ranked TE5 in our RotoBaller Week 4 PPR rankings, making him a solid TE1 this week. Fantasy managers should continue starting Kelce every week until he shows signs of regression.
