Who Should I Start? Travis Kelce or Mark Andrews

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.

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews had his least productive season since his rookie year in 2025, recording 48 receptions for 422 yards and five touchdowns on 70 targets across 17 games played. Following Baltimore's Week 7 bye, Andrews played fewer than 70% of his team's offensive snaps in every game. He also earned four or fewer targets in 11 contests. Part of Andrews' drop in production can be attributed to missed time from Ravens' quarterback Lamar Jackson, which impacted the team's offensive output overall. However, the veteran tight end's numbers were only slightly better in the 13 games Jackson was active for in 2025. Heading into 2026, Andrews will be entering his age-31 season and may simply be slowing down. Baltimore will also have an entirely new coaching staff in place, which could lead to changes across the roster. From a fantasy perspective, Andrews profiles as an increasingly difficult tight end option to trust in both redraft and dynasty formats.
