Who Should I Start? Travis Kelce or Trey McBride

Saturday, December 6, 5:29 AM

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce will have his hands full against the Houston Texans in Week 14. Kelce caught five passes for 45 yards and a touchdown in last week's loss to the Dallas Cowboys. Despite the loss, the veteran tight end put forth an excellent fantasy performance, and he should be relied upon to do the same against Houston this week. The Texans defense has allowed the fifth-fewest fantasy points to opposing tight ends this season, but Kelce is no average tight end, and his usage in the Kansas City offense sets him apart. Kelce has at least six targets in four of his last five games, with three touchdowns in that span. Kelce is ranked TE4 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings this week, making him a top-end option at the position once again.

Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride cooled off in the Week 14 loss against the Los Angeles Rams, recording five catches for 58 yards on nine targets. Despite an off game relative to his high standards, McBride still finished inside the top 15 in Week 14 for tight ends in PPR formats. Sunday marked only the third time McBride had fewer than eight catches since Jacoby Brissett took over at quarterback. The 26-year-old has now hauled in 88 passes for 937 yards and eight touchdowns on 127 targets across 13 games this season. As long as McBride remains healthy, he profiles as the top tight end in fantasy football. Arizona will face one of the best defenses the NFL has to offer in a difficult Week 15 matchup at the Houston Texans, but McBride should remain in all starting fantasy lineups.
