No one on the Chiefs saw more targets than Kelce in 2025: 108 of the 549 they threw in the 17 regular season games he played. He is listed at 6-5 and 260 pounds, taller than 61 percent of the 189 tight ends on a 2026 roster and heavier than 89 percent of them. Defensive backs gave him 5.52 yards of cushion at the snap, a tighter cushion than 82 percent of the 67 receivers the league's tracking data qualified in 2025. The 17 defenses on the Chiefs' 2026 schedule gave up 219.9 passing yards a game last season; the 17 they met gave up 224.3.

Pass attempts plus sacks taken, over those plus rushing attempts. A sack is a called pass that never became an attempt, so it counts on the pass side. Kneel-downs sit inside the rushing attempts and cannot be separated out.His targets over his club's, counted across the games he played. Games he missed are in neither total.These are box score totals, not charted by alignment, so there is no split of what a defense gives up to slot receivers, to backs or to any other role. Nothing here claims one.

Touchdown matchup

Touchdowns the defense he meets has allowed, beside his own offense

Record against the posted line, by market

Every market our archive priced him in at least eight times · the line is each book's opening number, median across the books quoting it · a market we priced fewer times is left off rather than shown with a sample too small to mean anything

Over rate excludes pushes and prints the decided count it is taken over. Whole-number markets (receptions, interceptions) push often, so overs divided by games would read several points off. The touchdown market posts no number at all, only a price, so it is graded as scored or not against the price implied by the books before their margin.

Where these numbers come from

On method: every figure here is a count or a rate over completed games, measured against numbers the books actually posted, with its window and its games shown beside it. Small samples are left small and labelled. Nothing here is a pick or a recommendation.
