Who Should I Start? Travis Kelce or Davante Adams

Sunday, January 4, 2:18 AM

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce will look to finish out the season on a high note in a Week 18 matchup against a middle-of-the-road Las Vegas Raiders' defense. While Kelce hasn't been the fantasy superstar we've grown accustomed to for quite some time now, even at 36 years old, he's enjoying a productive season. Chris Oladokun's inexperience undoubtedly caps some of Kelce's ceiling, although the former didn't look totally overmatched in Week 17's loss to Denver. Moreover, Kelce led the team in yards (36), targets (six), and receptions (five) in that contest. This Sunday, he'll face a Raiders' defense that's been roughly league average. They'll also be without star defensive end Maxx Crosby (knee). With the veteran still a focal point, fantasy managers can rely on Kelce as a back-end TE1 for the matchup. He'll officially land as RotoBaller's PPR TE12 for his meeting with Las Vegas.

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said on Monday that the team expects to get wide receiver Davante Adams (hamstring) back for Saturday's Wild-Card playoff game against the hosting Carolina Panthers, according to Stu Jackson of TheRams.com. Adams has not played since aggravating his left hamstring injury in the Week 15 win over the Detroit Lions. However, he returned to practice last week and should be ready to roll against Carolina to begin the playoffs. Despite missing the final three games of the regular season, the 33-year-old veteran pass-catcher still finished with a league-high 14 touchdown receptions in his 14 games played in his first year with the Rams. Adams could be a step slower in his return for the postseason, but his chemistry with quarterback Matthew Stafford should be enough to make him a popular DFS play.
