Kansas City Chiefs star tight end Travis Kelce has caught 16 of 22 targets for 255 yards over his last three games. He will look to continue his solid stretch against the New England Patriots, who rank 14th in DVOA against opposing tight ends this season. Reinforcements are coming as Darren Waller (hamstring) is set to return for Sunday's game against the Saints. Let's see where Kelce, Waller, and other tight ends such as Isaiah Likely, Tucker Kraft, and Taysom Hill rank this week.

Week 15 Tight End Rankings Analysis
A new feature has been added to our weekly fantasy football rankings article. Below, you will find our fantasy football outlooks for key options in Week 14, which gives readers a matchup preview of that player and advice on whether to start or avoid for the upcoming week. We provide outlooks for all 32 NFL teams, which can be found on our player profile pages and our fantasy football news desk.
Taysom Hill, TE, New Orleans Saints
Week 15 Overall PPR Rankings: 122
Week 15 Tight End PPR Rankings: 22
New Orleans Saints tight end/quarterback Taysom Hill (foot, hand) upgraded to a full practice participant on Friday after two straight limited practices and was removed from the final Week 15 injury report. Hill missed the Week 14 win over the Carolina Panthers but will now return to face the visiting New York Giants this Sunday. And with top wideout Chris Olave (ankle) a game-time decision, Hill could be looking at a heavy workload for the Saints offense in a good matchup.
The 33-year-old will resume his hybrid role all over the field, mainly as a runner, but more targets could be headed his way if Olave is unable to play. Fantasy managers should consider Hill a low-end TE1 this weekend with more upside if Olave is out.
Tucker Kraft, TE, Green Bay Packers
Week 15 Overall PPR Rankings: 109
Week 15 Tight End PPR Rankings: 13
Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft will take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 15. The rookie has been filling in for starter Luke Musgrave (oblique), who remains on the Injured Reserve list. Kraft set a career-high in yardage last week against the Giants and could continue to see a decent target share with Christian Watson (hamstring), likely out for the second week in a row. Tampa Bay allows the 11th-most fantasy points per game to tight ends this year and is tied for the third-most targets allowed to the position.
Opposing offenses are prioritizing getting the ball into the hands of their tight end against the Buccaneers, and it could mean Kraft is in for an increase in his usage this week. With no teams on bye, the 23-year-old is not a locked-in TE1, but he is a streamable option for managers struggling to get production from the position.
Isaiah Likely, TE, Baltimore Ravens
Week 15 Overall PPR Rankings: 91
Week 15 Tight End PPR Rankings: 11
Baltimore Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely finally posted a solid week against the Rams in Week 14. He's been expected to take over Mark Andrews' (ankle) role while he's out, but he hasn't turned that void into his own production until last week. In Week 15, he'll go up against the 25th-ranked team against opposing tight ends in the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Reaching seven targets again is not out of the question against this defense. The bigger issue is that Zay Flowers and Odell Beckham Jr. are a bigger part of the offense right now, and they could command the bulk of the receiving work again. Fantasy managers can consider him a strong TE2 with TE1 potential.
