From the article

Travis Kelce is approaching 37 years old after three straight seasons with declining fantasy PPG. Tight ends make their money in the red zone, and in a season with extremely little target competition and multiple hurt receivers, Kelce ranked 28th in red-zone target share at the position. With Patrick Mahomes II off the ACL, Rashee Rice back and Kenneth Walker III added, Kelce isn't my go-to pick to find upside at the position.

Kelce's age, declining PPG, and weak red-zone role make him a fade.

Kelce is approaching 37 years old after three straight seasons with declining fantasy PPG. Despite extremely little target competition and multiple hurt receivers in 2025, he ranked 28th in red-zone target share at the position. With Patrick Mahomes II recovering from an ACL injury, Rashee Rice back, and Kenneth Walker III added, Kelce is not the source's go-to pick to find upside at the position.
