Greg Dulcich vs Travis Kelce: Who Should You Start?
Greg Dulcich and Travis Kelce are both viable fantasy tight ends heading into 2026, but their 2025 production tells two different stories. Greg Dulcich averaged 5.0 PPG across 10 games with the Miami Dolphins, while Travis Kelce posted 9.1 PPG in 17 appearances for the Kansas City Chiefs.
A 4.1-PPG gap gives Travis Kelce the edge on paper, but paper does not account for Thursday night matchups, weather games, or a star defender returning from injury. The real question is not who was better in 2025, but who is the better start this specific week.
Travis Kelce is the volume tight end in this matchup with 76 receptions for 851 yards, while Greg Dulcich profiles as a more touchdown-dependent spike play (1 scores on 26 catches). In weeks where Greg Dulcich finds the end zone he out-scores Travis Kelce, but the floor gap is real.
One thing to note: both players share a Week 6 bye. That means you need a backup plan at tight end for that week, especially if one of these two is your starter.
