Kelce is one of the best tight ends in the NFL today. The seven-time All-Pro honoree has seen his production dip slightly over the last three seasons, as he’s yet to record 1,000 receiving yards in that span. Nevertheless, Kelce still went for 851 receiving yards and five receiving touchdowns in 2025 and has the potential to go for much more in 2026.
ESPN Fantasy Football projects Kelce to record 768 receiving yards and four receiving touchdowns next season, good for 176.05 fantasy points in PPR leagues.
Kelce is forecasted to be behind Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice in the pecking order for Kansas City’s passing attack next season. However, as Chiefs superstar quarterback Patrick Mahomes’ longtime brother-in-arms, Kelce will be liable to trend in the opposite direction with a huge statistical season in 2026. He still possesses the ability to be a major deep-ball threat and reel in receptions in all three phases of the field.
The Chiefs’ run game will be much better next season, and Mahomes is expected to bounce back from an uncharacteristically poor season in 2025, making Kelce a major name to consider in fantasy football for next season.
