Travis Kelce practises in full Friday after a limited practice Thursday (ankle)

Travis Kelce practised in full Friday after a limited practice Thursday with an ankle injury. He was also full Wednesday, making the Thursday limitation appear to be workload management. Kelce has no injury designation for Sunday's game against the Broncos.

Fantasy managers can expect Kelce to play Sunday, though a final confirmation before the 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff is worth checking given the ankle tag. He played last week with similar practice limitations and caught 4 passes for 44 yards on 8 targets against Seattle, posting 6.4 half-PPR points. Over his last three games he has averaged 5.4 half-PPR points a game on a 19 per cent target share, down from his 9.7 half-PPR points a game on the season. Denver has allowed 12.9 half-PPR points a game to tight ends, the 9th most of 32.

Travis Kelce

Kelce caught 4 passes for 44 yards on 8 targets on 83 per cent of snaps against Seattle in Week 7, posting 6.4 half-PPR points. Over his last three games he has averaged 5.4 half-PPR points a game on 5.7 targets and a 19 per cent target share, playing 77 per cent of snaps. He is scoring 1.5 half-PPR points a game below what his usage predicts over that window, so his role is worth more than his recent points.

Our models give Kelce a Roundup Score of 66 out of 99, ranking him 9th of 107 tight ends. We project 7.9 half-PPR points a game he plays. Over the season he is scoring 2.3 half-PPR points a game above what his usage predicts, so some touchdown or big-play luck that may not repeat. His air yards share of 24 per cent ranks 6th of 106 tight ends over his last three games. Full-PPR and standard managers should also start him, though his recent dip is worth noting.

What to do

• Start Travis Kelce against Denver on Sunday, checking his status about 90 minutes before the 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff.

• Full-PPR and standard managers should also start Kelce, though his recent 5.4 half-PPR points a game is a dip from his season average.

• Monitor Kelce's production over the next few weeks given his recent scoring below expected usage despite a strong 19 per cent target share.
