If you play fantasy football, you’ve likely noticed that the tight end position is awful this season. It’s really bad. There’s a reason everyone ran out and grabbed Taysom Hill last week for his fleeting Tight End eligibility in ESPN leagues, and he was a huge difference-maker for everyone. The glory days of Gronk/Graham/Gonzalez/Gates are long since over, and with George Kittle out, the only truly great tight end playing right now is Travis Kelce.
Kelce leads Football Outsiders’ DYAR metric by 114 yards, while putting up an impressive 32.8% DVOA, good for 6th.
