Travis Kelce Looking To Bounce Back

Friday, September 13, 5:00 PM

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce will face the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 2 at Arrowhead Stadium. Kelce is coming off a mediocre game against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 1. The Ravens held Kelce to three catches for 34 yards in the season opener. Many middle-of-the-field passes went toward Rashee Rice instead of Kelce against the tough Baltimore defense. The Ravens likely planned to limit Kelce's impact on the Week 1 contest, considering he torched them for 116 yards and a touchdown in their last matchup. The Chiefs tight end will have a much easier opponent in Week 2. The Bengals gave up the most receptions and second-most receiving yards to tight ends in 2023. Kelce should be a focal point of the offense in Week 2, especially considering his pedestrian stat line in Week 1. Mahomes will look to connect with the All-Pro tight end often in this contest. Kelce is still a top-tier TE1 every week, regardless of the matchup.

Mo Alie-Cox An Easy Target As Cap Casualty

Friday, February 23, 2:30 PM

The Athletic's James Boyd writes that Indianapolis Colts tight end Mo Alie-Cox is an easy target if the team wishes to create more salary cap space this offseason. He's entering the final year of a three-year, $17.6 million contract extension that he signed in 2022. Alie-Cox is due the last $5.9 million of that in 2024, but none of it is guaranteed. The 30-year-old is the team's best blocking tight end and has recorded at least three touchdowns in each of the last three seasons, but he's not getting any younger and is unlikely to develop into a true No. 1 pass-catching tight end at this point of his career. Both Will Mallory and third-year tight end Jelani Woods, who missed all of 2023 with hamstring issues, give the Colts more upside at the position amid their current youth movement. Alie-Cox hasn't been much more than a low-upside, touchdown-dependent TE2 option for fantasy managers in deep leagues.
