Who Should I Start? Travis Kelce or Tommy Tremble

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce contemplated retirement following the loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in the Super Bowl, but quarterback Patrick Mahomes says that the 35-year-old veteran is fully locked in now that he's decided to return for another season. "If it's the last ride, you would never know," Mahomes said. "The way he's talking about football. The way he's talking about working and trying to be even better this year than he was last year. He doesn't seem like a guy like it's his last ride, like he's tired of the job." Kelce has three Super Bowl rings, four All-Pro selections, 10 Pro Bowl nods, in addition to ranking third all time at TE in catches among tight ends (1,004), third in receiving yards (12,151) and fifth in TDs (77). However, he had just 823 yards, 97 catches and three scores in 2024, his lowest marks since hi rookie campaign. Kelce may not be the top overall fantasy TE anymore, but he's still in the TE1 mix and should be targeted plenty in the red zone by his buddy Mahomes.

Carolina Panthers tight end Tommy Tremble (back) underwent successful back surgery last week, according to head coach Dave Canales. The Notre Dame product is expected to be ready for training camp. Tremble, a third-round pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, has tallied 85 receptions for 782 yards and nine touchdowns in 61 career games. The 24-year-old is a solid rotational tight end, but he'll likely be sharing time with Ja'Tavion Sanders and Mitchell Evans in 2025. The Panthers' tight end room could be one to watch if quarterback Bryce Young takes a big Year-3 leap, but for now, it's tough to be optimistic about any of these players, and they might not be on the fantasy football radar in regular setups.
