Who Should I Start? Travis Kelce or Davante Adams

Saturday, September 13, 5:04 AM

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce will face the Philadelphia Eagles in a Super Bowl rematch this Sunday. The 35-year-old reeled in just two passes for 47 yards and a touchdown in their Week 1 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. 37 of Kelce's 47 yards came on his long touchdown catch and run in the fourth quarter. Despite salvaging his fantasy day with a long scoring play, the usage for Kelce in last week's game was concerning, to say the least. Xavier Worthy was knocked out early in the first quarter when he and Kelce collided. Despite the loss of Worthy and the absence of Rashee Rice due to suspension, Kelce was still only targeted four times in 39 pass attempts for Patrick Mahomes. The veteran tight end will have to take on the Eagles, who held him to four catches for 39 yards in the Super Bowl. Kelce is ranked TE5 in our RotoBaller rankings this week, making him a mid-range TE1 despite the matchup. Kelce should still be considered a TE1, but his floor could be much lower than it has been in years past.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams caught six of his 13 targets for a team-leading 106 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's Week 2 win over the Tennessee Titans. The Rams vowed to get Adams more involved this week, and that's exactly what happened, as the veteran pass catcher carved out an impressive 39.4 percent target share. Although he finished with fewer fantasy points than Puka Nacua for the second week in a row, what's more important is that both Nacua and Adams scored at least 22.5 points (PPR). Week 2 showed that the two can easily co-exist in a Matthew Stafford-led offense, which bodes well for their respective fantasy values going forward. Heading into Week 3 against the Philadelphia Eagles, Nacua is a low-end WR1 while Adams is a mid-to-high WR2. Both have high-end WR1 upside, though.
