Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce caught 4-of-9 targets for 26 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 17-9 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. The 33-year-old, ticketed for a "pitch count" in his 2023 debut, was surprisingly uninvolved in the first half for one seven-yard catch on two targets when the Chiefs could have used a boost. Kelce played the majority of the first-half snaps, but subbed out more frequently than usual. The superstar made a nice move to find some space for a nine-yard score, though, to complete an impressive Chiefs scoring drive to start the second half. Fantasy managers should be satisfied with the outcome, considering Kelce was not present for his customary quota of snaps, and better days are ahead for the four-time All-Pro. Those may arrive as soon as Week 3's smash spot at home versus the 0-2 Chicago Bears, who have yielded productive outings to Luke Musgrave and Cade Otton in the initial two weeks.

New York Giants tight end Darren Waller is a top-five option at the tight end position in Week 3, despite a tough matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. The Giants' offense will have to lean on their veteran due to the absence of running back Saquon Barkley (ankle). Through two games, the ex-Raider has caught nine of 13 targets for 112 yards but is still searching for the endzone. That's tied for TE4 in PPR formats heading into Week 3. The 49ers have been solid everywhere on the defensive of the ball so far this season. Expect a solid, but maybe not spectacular, stat line from Waller on Thursday Night Football.
Still trying to decide between Kelce and Waller? Check on the latest news to make sure both players are active and healthy. Our PPR projections show that Travis Kelce is projected to score 0.0 points this week while Darren Waller is projected to score 12.4 points.
