Travis Kelce News
Thursday, October 22, 3:57 PM
Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce (ankle) was limited in practice on Thursday for the second straight day, according to Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com. Kelce apparently came out of the Week 6 win over the division-rival Los Angeles Chargers with an ankle injury, although for now the 37-year-old veteran and future Hall of Famer appears to be on the right side of questionable. If he can put in a full practice on Friday, the Chiefs could remove Kelce from the injury report altogether for the weekend. The 11-time Pro Bowler and four-time first-team All-Pro has slowed down a bit after a strong start to his 14th year in the NFL, but with bye weeks in full swing, Kelce will still be in the TE1 picture if he is active in Week 7 on Sunday night against the hosting Seattle Seahawks. Kelce will have a higher ceiling if receiver Rashee Rice (hamstring) misses his second straight game. Rice has yet to practice since injuring his hamstring in the Week 4 win over the division-rival Las Vegas Raiders. Kelce has scored twice in five games this year while catching 20 passes for 299 yards.

Trey McBride News
Saturday, October 17, 12:23 AM
Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride caught nine passes for 66 yards and one touchdown on 10 targets in Week 5. It was the fifth consecutive game that McBride reached double digits in targets, and he is just one behind Amon-Ra St. Brown's 57 for the most in the NFL. That volume should keep him in play in Week 6, despite a matchup against the Rams, who have allowed the fewest fantasy points, receptions, and receiving yards to tight ends so far this season. In a similarly difficult matchup against the 49ers in Week 3, McBride brought in nine catches for 75 yards on 11 targets, good enough to finish as the overall TE8 in PPR scoring. Los Angeles has allowed four end zone targeted touchdowns to slot receivers (where McBride lines up on 67.2% of routes), which may improve McBride's chances for another score this weekend. Despite the opponent, McBride still projects as a TE1 and is a must-start in Week 6.
