Travis Kelce – Kansas City Chiefs

When the Chiefs needed a decisive play in an absorbing Sunday Night Football contest with the Las Vegas Raiders, it was no surprise that Patrick Mahomes looked the way of Kelce, the pair connecting for a late fourth-quarter score that ultimately settled the game for 9-1 Kansas City.

Kelce caught eight of his 10 targets for 127 yards and his game-winning touchdown, resulting in a fantasy haul of 26.9 points in PPR scoring, good for sixth among all players in Week 11 as of Sunday.

Undoubtedly the top tight end in fantasy in the absence of injured San Francisco 49ers star George Kittle, Kelce is as reliable as they come, his mind-meld with Mahomes on broken plays confounding opposing defenses at every turn.

His display against the Chiefs marked the third successive game in which Kelce has had at least 10 targets and over 100 yards receiving.

He has posted point totals of over 20 points in six games this season and that tally looks sure to increase during the coming weeks of the campaign, with Kansas City aiming to keep pace with the 10-0 Pittsburgh Steelers in the race for the number one seed in the AFC.

Kelce and the Chiefs face a stern test in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers defense next week, but there is no game in which fantasy managers should not feel confident about sliding this matchup nightmare into their starting lineup.
