Tops century mark in blowout loss
Kelce caught 10 of 15 targets for 133 yards during Kansas City's 31-9 loss to the Buccaneers in Super Bowl LV.
Analysis: Kelce led the Chiefs in both targets and yards Sunday, and he capped the postseason with three straight games over 100 receiving yards. Still, as the Chiefs' offensive line (sans both starting tackles) proved unable to match Tampa Bay's pass rush and protect an already-hobbled Patrick Mahomes, Kelce's ability to move the chains wasn't enough to keep the offense competitive. The normally sure handed tight end also dropped a potentially game-changing third-down pass in the first half. Still,…read more

Posts two more TDs against Bills
Kelce secured 13 of his 15 targets for 118 yards and two touchdowns during Sunday's 38-24 win against the Bills in the AFC Championship Game.
Analysis: Kelce evidently has Buffalo's number, as he does most every team in the NFL, with his only other multi-TD performance of the season coming Week 6 against the Bills. It was a seemingly favorable matchup, with Buffalo surrendering an NFL-worst 92 receptions to opposing tight ends during the regular season. Kelce predictably cashed in. The three-time All-Pro enjoyed a ludicrous start to the playoff rematch, setting a Chiefs franchise postseason record with nine first-half receptions Sunday.…read more

Tops 100 yards with a TD
Kelce caught eight of 11 targets for 109 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 22-17 win over the Browns in the AFC divisional round.
Analysis: Kelce scored from 20 yards out early in the second quarter as the Chiefs controlled the game early, but the momentum shifted after quarterback Patrick Mahomes suffered a concussion in the third quarter. The tight end continued to be effective with Chad Henne under center, making catches of five and 24 yards. Even if Mahomes is unable to play against the Bills in next week's AFC Championship Game, Kelce should still thrive against a Buffalo defense that has struggled to defend tight ends all…read more

Ready to play Browns
Kelce doesn't appear on the injury report the Chiefs released Wednesday, Herbie Teope of The Kansas City Star reports.
Analysis: Kelce was held out of the Chiefs' regular-season finale against the Chargers for rest purposes and benefited from Kansas City having a first-round bye in the postseason, so he should have the benefit of fresh legs heading into the team's playoff opener Sunday versus the Browns. Top wideout Tyreek Hill, who dealt with a hamstring injury back in December, is also off the Chiefs' injury report. Patrick Mahomes will thus have his full assortment of pass catching weapons available for the divisional…read more

May be rested Sunday
Though Kelce is not among Kansas City's Week 17 inactives, per Herbie Teope of the Kansas City Star, ESPN's Adam Teicher relays that he hasn't seen the tight end in uniform during warmups.
Analysis: In addition to five players previously ruled out due to injuries, Kansas City elected to deem QB Patrick Mahomes and safety Tyrann Mathieu inactive Sunday. However, with the team having clinched the AFC's No. 1 seed and a first-round bye, Teope notes that it would be surprising if a number of key players such as Kelce, who were not listed as inactive Sunday, saw extended action in the contest. Teicher's report suggests that Kelce may be rested as a precaution, along with Mahomes. In such a…read more

May rest in Week 17
Kelce is a candidate to be rested in Sunday's regular-season finale against the Chargers after dealing with some nagging injuries in recent weeks, Dave Skretta of the Associated Press reports.
Analysis: Kelce isn't listed on the Chiefs' Week 17 injury report and would likely play without any restrictions in a normal scenario, but Kansas City has already locked up the AFC's No. 1 seed, and head coach Andy Reid has stated that he plans to give rest to key players, including quarterback Patrick Mahomes. Though Reid hasn't detailed his plans for Kelce specifically, the star tight end and wideout Tyreek Hill (hamstring) are both likely to have minimal roles if active Week 17, as the Chiefs look to…read more

Sets receiving record for position
Kelce secured seven of 13 targets for 98 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 17-14 win against the Falcons.
Analysis: Kelce made NFL history Sunday, surpassing George Kittle's 2018 record for tight end receiving yards in a single season (1,377). With his Week 16 output, the six-time Pro Bowler pushes his season-long total to 1,416 yards, also leaping back ahead of Green Bay's Robert Tonyan for the TE league lead with his 11th TD catch of the year Sunday. Kelce has amassed double-digit targets in seven of his past eight games, but there's a possibility he's held out for a Week 17 matchup against the Chargers,…read more

Finds end zone in win
Kelce caught eight of 12 targets for 68 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 32-29 win over the Saints.
Analysis: He took a shovel pass from Patrick Mahomes for a one-yard score early in the second quarter, giving Kelce a TD in three straight games and tying his career high with 10 on the year. He's also closing in on history, as Kelce needs only 60 more receiving yards next week against the Falcons to break George Kittle's single-season NFL record for a tight end of 1,377.

Continues stellar stretch
Kelce caught eight of 10 targets for 136 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 33-27 win over Miami.
Analysis: Kelce's six-yard touchdown with 37 seconds left in the first half put the Chiefs up 14-10, and they proceeded to pull away with 16 unanswered points in the third quarter. The star tight end replicated his stat line from last week, and such performances have become the new normal for Kelce. He has caught at least eight passes in each of his last six games, topping 100 yards in five of those and finding the end zone in four. Kelce will look to keep rolling in Week 15 against the Saints.

Dominates in win
Kelce racked up 138 receiving yards and a touchdown on eight receptions (13 targets) in Sunday's 22-16 win over the Broncos.
Analysis: The Chiefs were uncharacteristically poor in the red zone, but Kelce was able to cash in on Patrick Mahomes' lone touchdown heave. The star tight end blew by the 1,000-yard marker for the fifth year in a row, and he is on pace to finish with double-digit touchdowns (eight through 12 games) for just the second time in his storied career. The 31-year-old continues to be one of the most consistent fantasy assets in the game with Mahomes under center, averaging numbers worthy of a WR1 with 6.8…read more

Strong production in win
Kelce brought in all eight targets for 82 yards in the Chiefs' 27-24 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday.
Analysis: The veteran was a distant second to Tyreek Hill in receptions, receiving yards and targets, but his numbers were nevertheless solid from a fantasy perspective. Kelce's yardage tally Sunday left him just short of the 1,000-yard mark for the campaign, a threshold that, once eclipsed, will render the 31-year-old the first tight end in NFL history to accomplish the feat in five consecutive seasons. Kelce now has at least eight grabs in four straight games, a streak he'll look to extend at the…read more

Catches game-winning score
Kelce hauled in eight passes (10 targets ) for 127 yards and a touchdown Sunday. He also completed his lone pass attempt on a trick play for four yards in a 35-31 win over Las Vegas.
Analysis: Kelce feasted between the hashes against the Raiders' safeties, consistently getting open down the field as Patrick Mahomes scrambled to buy time behind the line before connecting with his favorite target. The 31-year-old has been on an absolute tear of late, averaging 9.3 receptions and 139.7 yards with two total touchdowns over his last three contests. With George Kittle (foot) missing the majority of the season, Kelce has reclaimed his spot alone atop the fantasy tight-end summit. Next…read more

Spectacular numbers in win
Kelce secured 10 of 12 targets for 159 yards in the Chiefs' 33-31 win over the Panthers on Sunday.
Analysis: Kelce paced the team in receptions and receiving yards in a performance highlighted by a 44-yard grab, his second-longest catch of the campaign. The Panthers came into the contest with solid numbers against tight ends, but Kelce's elite athleticism, which has now helped him to three 100-yard efforts in the last five games, clearly overcame any statistical disadvantage. Now having seen 12 targets in back-to-back contests, Kelce will look to improve on Sunday's season-best effort against the…read more

Leading receiver in blowout win
Kelce caught eight of 12 targets for 109 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 35-9 win over the Jets.
Analysis: Kelce's three-yard touchdown put the Chiefs up 21-9 with 58 seconds left in the first half, and he led the Chiefs in targets, catches and receiving yards as Patrick Mahomes piled up 416 yards and five touchdowns through the air. The league's most dependable receiving option at the tight end position has 48 catches for 610 yards and six touchdowns through eight games, putting Kelce on pace to eclipse 1,200 receiving yards for a third consecutive season. He'll face the Panthers in Week 9.

Quiet outing against Broncos
Kelce caught all three of his targets for 31 receiving yards during Sunday's 43-16 win against Denver.
Analysis: The five-time Pro Bowler was proving to be the surest tight end in fantasy through the first six weeks of 2020, as he had amassed 70 receiving yards or recorded a touchdown in all six of his appearances entering Sunday. Kelce had three TDs in his preceding two games coming into the divisional tilt, but Kansas City tallied only one passing TD on 25 attempts during the drubbing of Denver. Tyreek Hill dominated the passing-game workload with 10 targets, while no other Chief exceeded four. Despite…read more

Catches two touchdowns in win
Kelce caught five of seven targets for 65 yards and two touchdowns in Monday's 26-17 win over the Bills. He also lost a fumble prior to halftime.
Analysis: Kelce got Kansas City on the board with an 11-yard reception toward the end of the first quarter, then found pay dirt from 12 yards out toward the end of the second. While those plays brought Kelce's touchdown total to five through six games, the tight end committed his first turnover of the season Monday, coughing the ball up just before halftime. That miscue surely bothers Kelce, but with at least five catches and/or 70 receiving yards in every game this season, he remains in great form ahead…read more

Paces pass catchers in loss
Kelce brought in eight of 12 targets for 108 yards and a touchdown in the Chiefs' 40-32 loss to the Raiders on Sunday.
Analysis: The All-Pro tight end led the Chiefs in receptions, receiving yards and targets on the afternoon, and his seven-yard touchdown grab with 3:57 remaining gave Kansas City some fleeting hope. Kelce's 100-yard effort was his first of the season, and he's now logged double-digit targets on two occasions over the first five games. Kelce will look to stay hot in a Week 6 Monday evening road matchup versus the Bills.

Tops team in receiving
Kelce caught three of six targets for 70 yards in Monday night's 26-10 win over the Patriots.
Analysis: Kelce again led Kansas City in receiving yards, with the bulk of his total coming on a 45-yard grab during the second half. That play was the Chiefs' longest of the game and helped compensate for Kelce posting a season low in catches. Nonetheless, with at least 70 yards and/or a touchdown in all four outings this season, Kelce is in fine form ahead of Week 5's game against the Raiders.

Leads team through air
Kelce caught six of seven targets for 87 yards in Monday night's 34-20 win over the Ravens.
Analysis: Kelce led the Chiefs in receiving yards while going for a season-long gain of 29 yards during Monday's contest. Although he couldn't continue his touchdown streak to start the season, instead seeing teammates Anthony Sherman and Eric Fisher vulture close-range scores through the air, Kelce still caught six passes for the third straight game and topped 85 yards for the second in a row. Up next for the highly touted tight end is a matchup against the Patriots in Week 4.

Scores TD on nine receptions
Kelce caught nine of 14 targets for 90 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 23-20 win over the Chargers.
Analysis: Kelce led the team in targets and catches while finishing behind only Tyreek Hill in receiving yards. He got the Chiefs on the board with a 10-yard touchdown catch in the second quarter, giving him two scores in as many games to start the season. The star tight end also has 140 yards and 15 receptions to his name already, so he should remain locked into fantasy lineups despite a seemingly difficult matchup against the Ravens next Monday night.

Highly efficient effort in win
Kelce brought in all six of his targets for 50 yards and a touchdown in the Chiefs' 34-20 win over the Texans on Thursday.
Analysis: The big tight end was particularly involved early, producing a 4-30 line and his six-yard scoring grab over Kansas City's first two drives. Despite a relatively quiet night the rest of the way, Kelce still finished second on the team in receptions and tied for second in targets, making it a solid season-opening fantasy effort. The perennial Pro Bowler will look to put together a successful encore when he and his teammates face the Chargers in a Week 2 road matchup Sunday, Sept. 20.

Upgrades to full practice
Kelce (knee) was a full participant in Tuesday's practice.
Analysis: After being listed as a limited participant Monday on the Chiefs' first official practice report of the 2020 season, Kelce's ability to take every rep in Tuesday's session erases any concern about his availability for Thursday's game against the Texans. Coming off four straight seasons of at least 80 receptions and 1,000 receiving yards, Kelce profiles as an easy top-two fantasy tight end this season, and his stronger track record on the health front probably makes him a safer choice than 49ers…read more

Analysis: Kelce has dealt with the occasional knee injury during his seven-year career, sitting out most of his rookie season after undergoing arthroscopic surgery and missing some preseason action in 2017, while having his practice reps limited in January during the Chiefs' Super Bowl run. On a positive note, he was able to get in some work Monday, but his status bears watching as Thursday's game against the Texans approaches.

The Chiefs and Kelce agreed to terms of a four-year extension Thursday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The exact parameters of the deal haven't been revealed, but Rapoport notes the deal is worth between $14 and $15 million per year. With Kelce signed through the 2025 season, Patrick Mahomes has his top targets -- also, Tyreek Hill -- on hand to work with for the next three campaigns.

Drawing close to extension
The Chiefs and Kelce are closing in on a four-year extension to keep the tight end in Kansas City through the 2025 season, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Parameters of the new contract aren't known, but the imminent agreement comes on the heels of 49ers tight end George Kittle signing a five-year, $75 million deal earlier Thursday. Notably, Kelce turns 31 in October, meaning he'll be 36 if he's able to play out the entire contract. In the end, it's worth it for the Chiefs to lock up one of its top two pass catchers -- the other being Tyreek Hill -- to give Patrick Mahomes the necessary firepower for more Super Bowl runs.

Finds end zone in SB LIV win
Kelce brought in all six of his targets for 43 yards and a touchdown during the Chiefs' 31-20 win over the 49ers in Super Bowl LIV on Sunday.
Analysis: Kelce's reception tally was second only to Tyreek Hill on the night, and his one-yard touchdown grab with 6:13 remaining officially began the Chiefs' comeback from a 20-10 deficit. Kelce earned every reception he secured against the 49ers' stingy defense, and even though he was largely held in check over the final two postseason wins, the multi-time Pro Bowler was spectacular during the regular season with a 97-1,229-5 line across 16 games. Signed through the 2021 campaign, Kelce will look to…read more

No listing on Friday's report
Kelce (knee) doesn't have an injury designation for the Super Bowl on Feb. 2 against the 49ers.
Analysis: During the first week of prep for the big game, the Chiefs continued to cap Kelce's reps, holding him to an LP/DNP/LP practice regimen. Still, his lack of designation Friday indicates the team isn't worried about his availability. While San Francisco's defense has held tight ends to an NFL-best 5.9 yards per target this season (including playoffs), the unit has allowed the 14th-most receptions (80) and ninth-most TDs (nine) to the position. Considering Kelce's stature, he seems like a good bet…read more

Analysis: Kelce was held out of Thursday's session while battling the flu bug that's gone around Kansas City's roster since mid-January. The star tight end was listed as limited Wednesday due to a knee issue, so it remains to be seen whether he still has a cap on his reps.

Analysis: Listed as limited Wednesday due to a lingering knee injury, Kelce now may be laid up for a handful of days as he's caught the flu bug that has hit other Chiefs over the last week-plus. Fortunately, he has a week and a half to return to full health for the Super Bowl, when he'll be facing a 49ers defense that gave up an NFL-low 5.9 yards per target to tight ends this season (including playoffs).

Held in check vs. Titans
Kelce caught three of four targets for 30 yards during Sunday's 35-24 win over the Titans.
Analysis: Kelce's monstrous performance last week clearly caught the attention of the Titans defense, which placed the tight end in coverage early and often. Kelce grabbed all but one of the looks thrown his way but did little of note outside his long gain of 18 yards. Despite this underwhelming effort, Kelce should be a focal point of the offense in the Super Bowl against either the 49ers or the Packers.

Kelce hauled in 10 of 12 targets for 134 receiving yards and three touchdowns during Sunday's 51-31 AFC divisional-round win against the Texans.

Analysis: While relaying Kelce's activity level in the final session of the week, coach Andy Reid told Adam Teicher of ESPN.com that the injury is "more of a bruise than anything." Kelce also picked up the concern at Wednesday's practice, per James Palmer of NFL Network. Reid doesn't seem to be concerned about Kelce's availability for Sunday's game against the Texans, but the tight end seems destined to be listed as questionable.

Another limited practice
Kelce (knee) was listed as a limited practice participant Thursday.
Analysis: We'll circle back on the tight end's status Friday, but at this stage we'd expect him to be available for Sunday's divisional-round playoff game against the Texans. The Chiefs' final injury report of the week will reveal whether Kelce approaches that contest listed as questionable or minus an injury designation.

Not donning knee brace
Kelce wasn't wearing a knee brace at the portion of Thursday's practice open to the media, Sam McDowell of The Kansas City Star reports.
Analysis: Limited on Wednesday's injury report, Kelce at least will maintain that level of participation Thursday and may even elevate to 'full.' Assuming the latter comes to pass by the end of the week, his availability for Sunday's divisional-round game against the Texans will be confirmed, as appears to be the expectation.

Slated to practice Thursday
Kelce (knee) will practice Thursday, Adam Teicher of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: It remains to be seen if he works fully or is limited Thursday, but after Kelce was limited at practice Wednesday, Teicher relayed that the tight end's knee issue shouldn't keep him out of Sunday's playoff game against the Texans.

Limited by knee issue
Kelce was limited at practice Wednesday due to a knee injury.
Analysis: Per Adam Teicher of ESPN.com, the tight end's limitations were the result of a sore knee, but the issue "shouldn't keep" Kelce out of Sunday's playoff game against the Texans. Ideally, Kelce would erase any concern about his health heading into the divisional-round matchup by practicing fully Thursday and/or Friday.

Picks up three receptions
Kelce caught three of five targets for 24 yards during Sunday's 31-21 win over the Chargers.
Analysis: Kelce met or fell below season lows across multiple statistical categories Sunday, as a few big plays on special teams and in the run game negated the need for Patrick Mahomes to air it out. The victory still meant that the Chiefs will get a bye this weekend and face either the Patriots, Texans or Bills in the divisional round. In two games against New England and Houston this season, Kelce caught 11 of 15 passes for 124 yards to go along with a four-yard touchdown run.

Leads team in receiving
Kelce had eight receptions (nine targets) for 74 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-3 win over Chicago.
Analysis: Kelce had another strong night from a yards and receptions standpoint, but he was also able to find the end zone for the first time since Week 11. It was the star tight end's fifth touchdown reception of the year, and that may be the only criticism that can be made of yet another 1,000-plus yard season (his fourth in a row). The Chiefs can still play their way into a first-round bye with some help from the Patriots in Week 17, so the team figures to deploy Kelce and the rest of its starters…read more

Racks up 142 yards in win
Kelce caught 11 of 13 targets for 142 yards during Sunday's 23-3 win over Denver.
Analysis: Sunday's snow-covered field wasn't necessarily conducive to a prolific passing attack, but the Chiefs hummed for most of the game thanks in large part to Kelce's work. The veteran tight end consistently shook open over the middle of the field for a season-high 11 catches, 13 targets and 142 yards, the most meaningful of which was likely an 11-yard reception late in the first quarter that made Kelce the first tight end in NFL history to record four consecutive 1,000-yard seasons. Kelce has been…read more

Paces Chiefs in win over Pats
Kelce caught seven of nine targets for 66 yards and added a four-yard touchdown run in Sunday's 23-16 win over the Patriots.
Analysis: The tight end led the Chiefs in catches, targets and receiving yards, but his frequent usage may have had something to do with the knock Patrick Mahomes took to his throwing hand early in the game as the QB seemed reluctant to attack downfield afterwards, resulting in more underneath looks for Kelce. He's now just 11 yards shy of his fourth consecutive 1,000-yard season, a mark he could reach early in Week 15's clash with the Broncos.

Leading receiver in big win
Kelce caught five of nine targets for 90 yards in Sunday's 40-9 rout of the Raiders.
Analysis: The Chiefs' passing game was surprisingly muted despite the final score, as windy conditions at Arrowhead Stadium prevented Patrick Mahomes from stretching the field as usual -- Kelce wound up leading the team in receiving yards thanks largely to a 47-yard catch-and-run in the third quarter. The tight end has topped 60 yards in five straight games, hauling in three TDs along the way, and he's now 77 yards shy of his fourth straight 1,000-yard campaign. Kelce could have a tough time reaching…read more

Hauls in touchdown in win
Kelce caught seven of 10 targets for 92 yards and a touchdown in Monday night's 24-17 win over the Chargers.
Analysis: Kelce not only hauled in a team-long reception of 31 yards, but also caught Kansas City's only touchdown through the air, scoring from 23 yards out during the third quarter. In doing so, he comfortably led the Chiefs in all major receiving categories. Of course, that came after star wideout Tyreek Hill (hamstring) was forced into a very early exit, leaving Kelce as the unquestioned focal point of the passing attack. Although Hill will now have the bye week to get healthier, Kelce could…read more

Nabs seven passes in loss
Kelce caught all seven of his targets for 75 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 35-32 loss to the Titans.
Analysis: Kelce helped cap off Patrick Mahomes' first drive since exiting Week 7 with a knee injury, taking the shovel pass underneath for a three-yard touchdown. Having Mahomes back obviously benefits the Chiefs' attack, but Kelce's consistency didn't really suffer in his absence. The former Bearcat has been targeted at least six times in every game this season and has been held under 60 yards just twice in 10 games. He remains arguably the most consistent tight end in the game. Next up is a Monday…read more

Seven grabs in win
Kelce secured seven of nine targets for 62 yards in the Chiefs' 26-23 win over the Vikings on Sunday.
Analysis: Kelce co-led the Chiefs in receptions while checking in just behind Sammy Watkins in receiving yardage. The veteran tight end was second on the team in targets as well, and he's logged at least eight looks in all but one game this season. With Patrick Mahomes (knee) looking ready for a Week 10 return, Kelce should be in position to continue his solid production versus the Titans in a road matchup.
