The experts at ESPN ranked Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce as the seventh-best fantasy tight end in Week 6 of the 2026 NFL regular season.
Almost halfway through his 13th year in the league, Kelce is still the favorite target of quarterback Patrick Mahomes and looks poised to earn All-Pro honors for his incredible contributions to Kansas City's offense.
For those considering starting the veteran tight end this week, here are his predicted stats against the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday:
TE Travis Kelce predicted stats vs Chargers in Week 6
Kelce drastically underperformed in the Chiefs' narrow victory over the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 4. The former Cincinnati Bearcat recorded just two receptions for 15 yards against a relatively average Raiders defense. The Chargers' defensive unit ranks sixth
in the NFL in passing yards allowed and will likely give Kelce even more trouble than the Las Vegas.
I don't have particularly high hopes for a big game from the veteran tight end this week. He should outdo his performance last week, but fans shouldn't expect Kelce to rack up more than 50 yards.
