Travis Kelce News
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.

Austin Hooper News
Monday, March 9, 9:40 AM
Free-agent tight end Austin Hooper is signing a one-year, $3.25 million deal with the Atlanta Falcons on Monday, according to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network. Hooper was originally drafted by Atlanta in the third round in 2016 out of Stanford. The 31-year-old veteran spent the first four years of his NFL career with the Falcons and was a Pro Bowler with them in 2018 and 2019. He then bounced around with the Cleveland Browns, Tennessee Titans, Las Vegas Raiders, and New England Patriots. Hooper hasn't been as productive as he was in his final two seasons in Atlanta, and in his return, he'll be a backup to TE Kyle Pitts Sr. In 16 regular-season games (six starts) for the Patriots last year, Hooper had just 21 catches for 263 yards and two touchdowns. Unless Pitts is traded or injured in 2026, Hooper won't be on the fantasy radar in redraft leagues this fall.
