Who Should I Start? Travis Kelce or Tyler Warren

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce will face the Philadelphia Eagles in a Super Bowl rematch this Sunday. The 35-year-old reeled in just two passes for 47 yards and a touchdown in their Week 1 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. 37 of Kelce's 47 yards came on his long touchdown catch and run in the fourth quarter. Despite salvaging his fantasy day with a long scoring play, the usage for Kelce in last week's game was concerning, to say the least. Xavier Worthy was knocked out early in the first quarter when he and Kelce collided. Despite the loss of Worthy and the absence of Rashee Rice due to suspension, Kelce was still only targeted four times in 39 pass attempts for Patrick Mahomes. The veteran tight end will have to take on the Eagles, who held him to four catches for 39 yards in the Super Bowl. Kelce is ranked TE5 in our RotoBaller rankings this week, making him a mid-range TE1 despite the matchup. Kelce should still be considered a TE1, but his floor could be much lower than it has been in years past.

Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren continued to show he's a focal point of the team's offense in a 29-28 Week 2 win over the Denver Broncos. Warren caught four of his seven targets for 79 yards while taking one carry for no gain in the close win. The rookie tight end is off to a torrid start to his NFL career, compiling 11 catches on 16 targets for 155 yards thus far. Warren is safe to treat as a solid, mid-range TE1 in fantasy leagues going forward. He will look to continue his hot start in Week 3's road matchup against the Tennessee Titans.
