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.

Trey McBride News
Wednesday, June 24, 8:10 AM
Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride put together a dominant campaign in 2025, recording 126 receptions for 1,239 yards and 11 touchdowns on 169 targets across 17 games. The 26-year-old has emerged as a PPR-points scoring machine over the past two seasons, averaging 9.6 targets and 7.2 receptions per game since the start of 2024. Entering 2026, there's little doubt that McBride remains an elite tight end option for fantasy managers. However, dynasty managers may want to at least consider selling ultra-high on McBride. For one, McBride benefited from the Cardinals' abnormally high pass volume once Jacoby Brissett took over as the quarterback in 2025. While Brissett is back as the starter for 2026, Arizona has a new play-caller in Mike LaFleur and used the third overall pick in the 2026 draft on running back Jeremiyah Love. Additionally, McBride's 11 touchdowns last season may be an outlier, as he recorded just six touchdown catches over the first 49 games of his NFL career. It would need to be a massive haul, but dynasty rebuilders with McBride on their roster may want to explore a trade.
