Travis Kelce News
Sunday, October 18, 4:10 PM
Travis Kelce (ankle) saw five targets and recorded four receptions for 53 yards (13.3 yards per reception) in a 22-6 Week 6 victory over the Los Angeles Chargers. More notably, Kelce played through an ankle injury, according to head coach Andy Reid, as reported by Pete Sweeney of The Kansas City Star. Kelce's five targets were the second most in the passing game for the Chiefs on Sunday, behind only wide receiver Xavier Worthy (seven). The five receptions trailed only Worthy, who had seven receptions for 73 yards (10.4 yards per reception), and Kelce's 53 yards tied fellow tight end Noah Gray for second on the team in Week 6. With the win, the Chiefs moved to a perfect 5-0 on the 2026 season thus far. Fantasy managers will need to keep a close eye on Kelce's ankle issue moving forward, but the fact that he played through it against the Chargers is a positive sign. Kelce will remain a TE1 as long as he is active.

Brenton Strange News
Saturday, October 17, 10:29 PM
Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Brenton Strange has commanded a vastly superior target share over his past two appearances, making him an appealing streaming candidate ahead of a divisional bout with the Houston Texans. Strange began the campaign with seven receptions on ten targets (72 yards) through the first three games and was officially off the radar for fantasy. However, a combined 14/163 line on back-to-back eight-target outings is enough to raise an eyebrow. Furthermore, the Penn State product leads all Jaguars pass catchers over that stretch in each major receiving category, excluding touchdowns. It's an intriguing development for Strange, and he's aided by a matchup against a Houston defense that has yet to put it all together in 2026. Fantasy managers on the search for assistance at tight end can turn to the 25-year-old this Sunday, and if he posts another similar outing to his previous two, he could be worth holding through the team's Week 7 bye.
