Who Should I Start? Travis Kelce or Quentin Johnston

Saturday, November 15, 5:12 AM

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce will face the Denver Broncos on the road in Week 11. Kelce has been a strong option at the tight end position and should continue being that coming out of the team's Week 10 bye. The veteran tight end has managed to eclipse 60 receiving yards in four of the last five games and scored two touchdowns in that span. Kelce was virtually invisible when he played with Rashee Rice in 2024 since the latter garnered all the targets and success. It was assumed that Kelce's value would take a hit with Rice's return in Week 7, but Kelce managed to put up his best fantasy performance of the year in Week 8. Despite his success, Kelce could have a difficult time against Denver this week. The Broncos defense has allowed the eighth-fewest fantasy points to opposing tight ends this season. Kelce is ranked TE10 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings, making him a low-end TE1 against the Broncos.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston (shin) is listed as questionable heading into Week 11, but put in a full practice on Friday, suggesting he is likely to play. Johnston led the team with 10 targets last week, finishing with five receptions for 42 yards. The Bolts' depleted offensive line is forcing Justin Herbert into quick throws, which has limited the deep connection with Johnston that we saw earlier in the season. Nonetheless, he faces a vulnerable Jacksonville Jaguars secondary that has allowed 31 receptions of 20 yards or more, which plays to Johnston's strengths. If cleared, he has a favorable matchup against CB Greg Newsome, who allows a 66.7% catch rate. Based on his recent target share and the matchup, Johnston is a viable boom-or-bust WR3 and is ranked as RotoBaller's WR26.
