Travis Kelce Whisper-Quiet In Close Week 4 Win Over Raiders

Sunday, October 4, 9:45 PM

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce was almost invisible in his team's 30-27 thrilling victory over the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 4. After smashing in multiple games to start the season, Kelce only saw four targets in Week 4, catching two of them for 15 yards. Maybe the 37-year-old veteran is no longer at the peak of his abilities as a football player, and is susceptible to strong defensive coverage. The Chiefs don't need him to have a massive game to win, as they have running back Kenneth Walker III, the most productive RB in the NFL, on their side. Kelce faced double coverages all day against Vegas, and they made it a huge part of their game plan defensively against the pass to shut him down. Even when he wasn't double-covered, the Raiders were sound defensively in covering him. Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes II was looking his way early and often, though, so Kelce should bounce back in Week 6. The Chiefs will rest up in Week 5, as they have an early-season bye. One week later, they'll face the Los Angeles Chargers, who Kelce has a history of absolutely destroying. He'll still be a must-start TE1 for that matchup.

Dalton Schultz News

Dalton Schultz Posts Another Subpar Performance

Sunday, October 4, 9:48 PM

Houston Texans tight end Dalton Schultz caught both his targets for nine yards in Sunday's 34-30 home loss to the Dallas Cowboys. The veteran entered Week 4's contest leading Houston in receptions (19), yards (205), and targets (25), but was vastly outperformed by Nico Collins and the wide receiver corps on a day when C.J. Stroud threw for 347 yards. Much of Schultz's production on the season stems from a monster 12-catch, 140-yard outburst against the Bengals in Week 2, and it's looking like that's the aberration for the 2026 campaign -- particularly with Collins back in the picture in his usual target-hog role. The 30-year-old will always be a fringy option at tight end, but his fantasy floor and ceiling take a hit as Houston's WR1 returns to full health. Next up, the Texans face a divisional meeting with the Titans on the road.
