According to the experts at ESPN, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce is the fifth-best fantasy tight end entering Week 4 of the 2026 NFL season.
At age 36, the 13-year veteran is playing some of his best football. Kelce's days of 1,000+ yard seasons are likely long behind him, but the four-time All-Pro is still a masterful route runner who can consistently get open.
For fantasy managers with Kelce in their lineup this week, here are his predicted stats against the Raiders on Sunday.
TE Travis Kelce predicted stats vs Raiders in Week 4
Kelce leads Kansas City in receiving yards through four weeks, something few would have guessed before this season. After a disappointing 2025 campaign, many, including yours truly, thought Kelce's time as a top tight end might be over. Luckily, we were wrong.
As previously stated, the former Cincinnati Bearcat is simply not as good as he once was. But with the Chiefs' receiving corps still finding its footing, Kelce has picked up the slack and re-established himself as one of the league's top performers.
The Raiders' defense will arguably be the toughest opponent Kelce has faced this season, so a sub-100-yard game is likely. I still think the 13-year veteran is good for one touchdown.
