Travis Kelce held in check by Patriots

Travis Kelce hauled in five of his seven targets for 40 yards and added one rushing attempt for four yards in the Chiefs' victory over the Patriots on Thursday.

Fantasy Impact:

It looked like Bill Belichick made Kelce the focal point of his defense, and although he succeeded in keeping Kelce in check, allowed pretty much every other offensive playmaker to explode. Kelce should be much more involved going forward, and should still be regarded as the second-best tight end in fantasy behind only Rob Gronkowski. He'll have another tough matchup in Week 2, however, as he'll take on an Eagles team that allowed the second-fewest fantasy points to opposing tight ends in 2016.
