4. Travis Kelce – TE – Kansas City Chiefs

Arguably the best tight end in the game, it is no surprise here we find Kelce so high on this list. Kelce finished the year with the 10th most receiving yards in the league, as a tight end. His game-changing ability does not go unnoticed, yet defenses still have trouble keeping track of #87. Kelce and the Chiefs were defeated earlier in the year by the Patriots, and will now be looking for revenge.

Kelce was five for 61 in that game but failed to reach the end zone. In order for the Chiefs to beat the Pats, Kelce is going to have to find the end zone and put as many points on the board as possible to help offset the Chiefs weak defense. Kelce has had a super successful NFL career so far, but a win would put him in his first ever Super Bowl.
