Who Should I Start? Travis Kelce or Brock Bowers

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce contemplated retirement following the loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in the Super Bowl, but quarterback Patrick Mahomes says that the 35-year-old veteran is fully locked in now that he's decided to return for another season. "If it's the last ride, you would never know," Mahomes said. "The way he's talking about football. The way he's talking about working and trying to be even better this year than he was last year. He doesn't seem like a guy like it's his last ride, like he's tired of the job." Kelce has three Super Bowl rings, four All-Pro selections, 10 Pro Bowl nods, in addition to ranking third all time at TE in catches among tight ends (1,004), third in receiving yards (12,151) and fifth in TDs (77). However, he had just 823 yards, 97 catches and three scores in 2024, his lowest marks since hi rookie campaign. Kelce may not be the top overall fantasy TE anymore, but he's still in the TE1 mix and should be targeted plenty in the red zone by his buddy Mahomes.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers wrapped up a sensational rookie season despite a constant change at quarterback and a tumultuous season for the team in general. In the Week 18 loss to the Chargers, Bowers finished with four catches for 50 yards and a touchdown on nine targets. He ended the year with 112 receptions, 1,194 yards, and five touchdowns on 153 targets. His performance broke records for most receptions by a rookie, Raiders franchise single-season receptions, and most yards by a rookie tight end.
