It's been quite a ride, but the ride is over. Or at least, Travis Kelce will not offer much fantasy utility in Underdog's 0.5PPR scoring. Touchdowns had already begun eluding Patrick Mahomes in recent years, and that's before throwing in the recovery process of a Week 15 ACL/LCL tear.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalProjection

Kelce's 121.5 ADP risky; 37 years old with declining production and ACL recovery.

Travis Kelce at 121.5 Underdog ADP will not offer much fantasy utility in 0.5PPR scoring. Touchdowns had already begun eluding Patrick Mahomes in recent years, and that's before throwing in the recovery process of a Week 15 ACL/LCL tear. Kelce turning 37 in October is unlikely to slow the theme of descent. With sparse touchdown production and dwindling numbers across the board otherwise, there's a chance Kelce isn't even especially useful as a TE3 in 2026. If Kelce's average of 5.8 yards after the catch per catch last year changes to the 3.7 yards from 2025, his yardage from last year drops from 851 to 691. Would you normally have any interest in drafting a player who is turning 37 one year after catching 76 receptions for 691 yards and five touchdowns?
