The Top TEs To Start in Week 3
Travis Kelce, TE, Kansas City Chiefs
Analysis by Kyle Soppe | The GOAT has scored in each of his past four games and looked just fine in his season debut against the Jaguars. The touchdown he scored came on a Mahomes scramble, reminding us that the non-verbal connection between these two is second to none.
Kelce should still be viewed as the favorite to lead the position in fantasy points for the season.
Dallas Goedert, TE, Philadelphia Eagles
Analysis by Kyle Soppe | After failing to haul in his only target in Week 1, Goedert saw four early targets on Thursday night and was a part of the game plan. He finished Week 2 as the Eagles leader in both targets (seven) and catches (six), though the fact that not a single one of those receptions gained 10 yards is a bit concerning.

He’s the third most likely player to catch a touchdown on an offense that prefers to run when in close, so the ceiling here isn’t what we are looking for. Goedert is attached to an elite offense and plays a shallow position, a combination that will land him in my top 10 every week, but if he finds a way to have a big game soon, his stock is one I’d consider shorting while the price is high.
