Blake Bell

After missing the Kansas City Chiefs 2023 opening loss to the Detroit Lions, TE Travis Kelce has done “a good job”, and “as long as nothing happens” he will suit-up and play in Week 2 as the Chiefs travel to Jacksonville, according to Andy Reid, via Nate Taylor on Twitter.

A knee injury suffered in practice leading up to the Chiefs’ first game was responsible for Kelce being sidelined as the Lions upset the Chiefs by a single point. Kelce should be ready for week 2, barring a setback, but seemed ready and in good spirits during the team’s second week practices, even popping up in a social media video that saw him feigning a limp before laughing and running across the practice field.

Kelce, the Chiefs’ primary receiving option and a consistent top-performer in fantasy should be inserted back into all lineups. Projections for wide receivers Rashee Rice and Kadarius Toney, and tight end Noah Gray, all of whom received a team-leading 5 targets against Detroit, as well as WR Skyy Moore and TE Blake Bell, should return to their previous levels.
