Who Should I Start? Travis Kelce or Dalton Schultz

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.

Houston Texans tight end Dalton Schultz finished second on the team in receiving by catching all four of his targets for 63 yards in a Divisional Round defeat to Kansas City on Saturday. All told, it was the veteran tight end's second-best receiving day of the season, trailing only a 66-yard day against Detroit in November. About half Schultz's damage came on one play, a 34-yard juggling act along the sideline that was upheld after review. Though his receiving role initially took a hit, he ended up second on the team in targets and catches following injuries to receivers Stefon Diggs (knee) and Tank Dell (knee). Houston, which sees its season end in the Divisional Round for a second straight year, will likely be in the market for another pass catcher during the offseason.
