Kelce continues to hum along as a TE1, ranking TE7 in fantasy points per game with a 17.8% target share, 2.23 YPRR, three red zone targets, two deep targets, and a 19.2% first-read share. He has posted a strong 0.117 FD/RR and leads the Chiefs in targets. The source projects Kelce could easily post another TE1 finish this week; Denver has allowed the sixth-most receiving fantasy points per game and the 11th-most fantasy points per opportunity to tight ends over their last five games.

Kelce's first three weeks when he led the NFL in yards after catch appear to be the outlier; over the past month he's the TE18 on TE20 usage despite injuries to multiple Chiefs WRs. On tape he looks okay, but more of his production now comes from chip help or four seconds after the play as Patrick Mahomes runs around, which will come with far less consistency, especially when Rice returns (expected this week). Denver ranks ninth-friendliest against TEs (12.7 half PPR points per game) but recently yielded 10-111-1 to Trey McBride (TE2) on 13 targets in Week 7 and a score to George Kittle (TE4) in Week 4. Kelce had 71 yards in Week 1 and was TE21 and TE3 in 2025 against Denver. Kansas City enters as 1.5-point road favorites with a 21.5-point team total (20th).

Kelce is a sit in Week 8 against Denver as the Chiefs face a bad spot. Kansas City's 21-point team total is lower than 18 teams. Kelce got off to a hot start this year, but usage has waned over the past month. In his previous four appearances, Kelce has earned a mediocre 16 percent target share while being targeted on 17 percent of his routes. With Rashee Rice coming back this week, his role isn't getting better anytime soon.

Kelce had eight targets against Seattle last week but only four catches for 44 yards on a horrible offensive night for the Chiefs. This week he faces a Broncos pass defense that puts the clamps on wide receivers but isn't as stingy against tight ends. The Broncos gave up the 12th-most fantasy points per game to TEs last year and have allowed the ninth-most fantasy points per game to the position this year. In two games against the Broncos last season, Kelce had 14 catches for 127 yards and a touchdown. Ranked as a midrange TE1.

Travis Kelce expressed strong frustration after the Chiefs' Week 7 loss to Seattle, emphasizing the team's poor performance across all phases. Kelce stated: 'You can't be okay with being mediocre' and 'We're coming off a game where we didn't perform well in really any phase. It's got to fire you the f— up, man.' He promised the team would not have another showing like that again, signaling his competitive resolve and expectation for improvement heading into Week 8.

George Kd ranks Travis Kelce at six, placing him at the very end of the A tier. Despite the Kansas City Chiefs' recent poor offensive output (one of the worst since Patrick Mahomes was drafted), Kelce has been a consistent producer, scoring 8.4 fantasy points even in that miserable game. George Kd will not move Kelce's ranking even if Rashee Rice plays, citing his multi-touchdown upside and ability to generate yards after catch—one of the few Chiefs who can do so.

The first three weeks of the year when Kelce was literally leading the NFL in yards after catch should be looked back on as the outlier of the season; over the past month, Kelce is the TE18 on TE20 despite injuries to multiple WRs. On tape, Kelce looks okay, but even more of his production now is slipping out after chip help or four seconds after the play as Patrick Mahomes runs around, which will come with far less consistency, especially when Rice is back.
