Who Should I Start? Travis Kelce or Ja'Tavion Sanders

Saturday, November 1, 5:12 AM

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce will face the Buffalo Bills in Week 9. Kelce caught six passes for 99 yards and a touchdown in Week 8 against the win over Washington Commanders. The veteran tight end has caught at least six passes in three of the last four games and is averaging 73 receiving yards per game in that span. In the past, Rashee Rice being healthy was a bad sign for Kelce's production, but the two were able to coexist in Week 8. Both Rice and Kelce caught at least six passes and scored a touchdown in their 28-7 victory last week. Kelce could find a way to produce despite facing the Buffalo Bills, who have allowed the second-fewest fantasy points to opposing tight ends this season. Kelce is ranked TE9 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings, making him a solid TE1 option this week.

Ja'Tavion Sanders has barely contributed to the Panthers' passing game this season. In six games played, Sanders has 16 receptions for 116 yards while averaging 4.4 PPR Fantasy Points Per Game. Last week against the Green Bay Packers, Sanders caught his only target for five yards. Carolina will face the New Orleans Saints in Week 10, who allow 14.54 points to tight ends, ranking 19th in the league. But Sanders has not shown us any reasons to believe he can take advantage of the matchup. Tetairoa McMillan, the Panthers' top pass-catcher, was limited in Friday's practice with a hamstring injury and is questionable to start on Sunday. Although more targets would be available for other Carolina pass-catchers if McMillan does not play, the fantasy outlook for Sanders does not change much at all. He has not delivered enough results to be worthy of any consideration. Sanders is not rosterable in all formats until further notice.
