Kelce's Week 6 Fantasy Outlook: A Tough Matchup Ahead
18 Oct
Summary
- Travis Kelce ranked seventh best fantasy tight end for Week 6.
- Kelce's Week 4 performance was notably poor with only two receptions.
- Chargers defense ranks sixth in passing yards allowed, posing a challenge.
As the 2026 NFL regular season progresses, Travis Kelce of the Kansas City Chiefs has been positioned as the seventh-best fantasy tight end for Week 6. This ranking comes despite a recent dip in performance, as seen in Week 4's narrow victory over the Las Vegas Raiders, where Kelce recorded just two receptions for 15 yards.
Looking ahead to the Week 6 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers, Kelce faces a formidable defensive unit. The Chargers' defense ranks sixth in the NFL for passing yards allowed, suggesting a potentially tough game for the veteran tight end. While he is expected to surpass his Week 4 output, projections do not anticipate a performance exceeding 50 receiving yards.
Kelce's career best game against the Chargers occurred in Week 15 of the 2021 season, where he achieved 10 receptions for 191 yards and two touchdowns. This past performance highlights his potential, though current circumstances suggest a more modest outing for the upcoming game.
