Who Should I Start? Travis Kelce or George Kittle

Friday, December 12, 5:06 PM

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce was essentially eliminated from last week's contest against the Houston Texans. Kelce was held to one catch for eight yards in the 10-20 loss to Houston. The veteran tight end was a non-factor, finishing sixth on the team in receiving yardage. Week 14 was the first time this season that Kelce finished without multiple catches, so it can only go up from here, but he does face a difficult matchup in Week 15. Kelce will take on the Los Angeles Chargers, who have allowed the eighth-fewest fantasy points to opposing tight ends this season. The Chiefs need to win the rest of their games this season if they have any chance of making the playoffs, and Kelce should be heavily involved in making that happen. Kelce is ranked TE7 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings, making him a mid-range TE1 with another difficult matchup this week.

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle has finished in TE1 territory in five of his eight games played in 2025. After a five-week stint on injured reserve, Kittle put up an unprecedented goose egg in his first game back. But in Weeks 8 through 13, he ranked fourth in targets and second in both receptions and yardage among tight ends. In the 49ers' last four games, Kittle led the team with 30 targets and averaged 6.3 receptions and 74 yards per game. Kittle should remain one of Brock Purdy's top targets, along with Jauan Jennings and Christian McCaffrey, when the Niners host the Titans on Sunday. Tennessee hasn't been particularly vulnerable to tight ends in 2025, but was gashed for 114 yards and a touchdown by Harold Fannin Jr. last week. Kittle is a safe start for Week 15.
