Week 5 vs Chicago
Travis Kelce, who played his college ball at Cincinnati, did not have a very good homecoming in the Queen City last Sunday. Kelce was held to five receptions for 49 yards and lost a fumble. It was an off day for the talented tight end, but some of the blame must go to Kansas City’s misguided head coach Andy Reid. Rookie wide receiver Chris Conley, a promising player who is still finding his way, had as many targets as Travis.
The only tight end who has scored a touchdown against the Bears in 2015 is Seattle’s Jimmy Graham. However, the other opponents the Bears have faced, Green Bay, Arizona, and Oakland, do not have consistent threats at the position. And Chicago has given up 10 touchdown passes, so logic dictates Kelce has a good chance at putting last week behind him. Continue to view him as a top-flight TE1.
