Who Should I Start? Travis Kelce or Joshua Palmer

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce will take on the Detroit Lions in Week 6. Kelce had his best game of the season in Week 5, catching seven passes for 61 yards and a touchdown in the loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. Kelce's seven catches were a season-high, and his 61 receiving yards matched his season-high set in Week 2. Kelce also found the endzone for the first time since Week 1. His production has trended back up since his 26-yard performance in Week 3, and fantasy managers hope he can continue this momentum into Sunday night against Detroit. The Lions have the highest-powered offense in the league, and the Chiefs will be without Rashee Rice for another week, so Kelce should be heavily involved in the short to intermediate areas of the field. Kelce has been the safety blanket for Patrick Mahomes for many years, and he should continue playing that role in a game where the Chiefs will need to score often. Kelce is ranked TE9 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings, making him a TE1 in what could be the highest-scoring game of the week.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Joshua Palmer continues to be a non-factor in the team's offense, seeing just two targets in Week 5 despite playing 51% of offensive snaps against New England. Since his nine-target outing in Week 1, Palmer has failed to see more than three looks in any game, making it clear he's fallen down Buffalo's receiving hierarchy. With Khalil Shakir and Keon Coleman commanding more consistent opportunities and the Bills leaning on their ground game, Palmer's path to fantasy relevance remains nonexistent. He can safely be left on waivers in all formats, as his current role offers little to no upside heading into Week 6.
