Travis Kelce News
Saturday, June 13, 11:00 AM
Despite rampant speculation that he would retire following the 2025 season, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce is back for at least one more year in 2026. As he enters his age-37 season, Kelce is clearly no longer the elite force he once was at his peak. However, he remained a useful piece for fantasy managers in 2026, recording 76 catches for 851 yards and five touchdowns on 108 targets across 17 games. Kelce could presumably have a stronger offensive environment around him in Kansas City in 2026 if Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes (knee) can play a fully healthy season. Additionally, the Chiefs once again look to be light on reliable pass-catching options outside of Kelce, particularly given wide receiver Rashee Rice's (knee) persistent struggles with both injury and off-field issues. Kelce's upside on a week-to-week basis is limited, but his current dynasty value may be undervaluing the solid production floor he can provide for win-now managers in 2026.

Mike Gesicki News
Thursday, June 11, 8:49 AM
After recording 65 catches for 665 yards in his first season with the Cincinnati Bengals in 2024, tight end Mike Gesicki's production fell off in his second year with the team in 2025. The 30-year-old missed four games with a pectoral injury and finished the season with 28 catches for 307 yards and two touchdowns on 42 targets. Gesicki is back with Cincinnati for 2026, and he could be in position for a bounce-back campaign after the team let tight end Noah Fant walk in free agency. Gesicki is not assured of the TE1 role for the Bengals, as he will have to compete with Drew Sample, Erick All Jr., and Tanner Hudson. Still, Gesicki has proven an ability to be productive in the Cincinnati offense before, particularly in games where Bengals wideout Tee Higgins is sidelined by injury. In dynasty formats, Gesicki could be a worthy buy-low dart-throw for managers after his down year in 2025.
