Kansas City Chiefs tight end Noah Gray has continued to have a significant impact despite operating behind future Hall of Famer Travis Kelce. In fact, Gray has outscored Kelce in fantasy football since Week 11, with Gray ranking as the TE4 in fantasy football during that five-game span while Kelce was the TE15. A 25-year-old Duke product, Gray has appeared in all 14 games this season, catching 37 passes for 420 yards and five touchdowns, all of which are career-high marks. This week, he takes on the Houston Texans, who have allowed the fifth-fewest catches and fourth-fewest receiving yards to opposing tight ends in the NFL. However, they have been susceptible to touchdowns at the position, letting tight ends find the end zone at the seventh-highest clip. All in all, Gray remains a solid fixture on the fantasy radar, ranking as a mid-to-low TE2 option at home this Saturday.

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Noah Gray caught two passes for 21 yards and a touchdown in the 21-7 win over the Cleveland Browns. Gray's touchdown in this contest was his fifth of the year, giving him three more scores than Travis Kelce this season. The Chiefs backup tight end has been a consistent part of the team's passing attack lately, earning at least five targets in four of the last five games. With three other viable pass catchers surrounding him, Gray has been able to find soft spots in the opposing defenses. The 25-year-old will look to score again next week against the Houston Texans, who rank fourth in fantasy points allowed to opposing tight ends this season. Despite his consistent involvement, fantasy managers should leave Gray out of their lineups in the fantasy playoffs.

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Noah Gray has strung together an impressive stretch of games lately, putting him on the fantasy radar ahead of his Week 15 matchup against the Cleveland Browns. Gray has four catches in each of his last four contests, totaling 173 yards and four touchdowns along the way. The 25-year-old typically only sees the field in two-tight end sets, working in a complementary role alongside Travis Kelce. Despite being second on the depth chart, he has played at least half of the offensive snaps in every game this season. This week, he takes on the Browns, who have allowed the eighth-most fantasy points to tight ends in 2024. Gray's position on the depth chart detracts from his fantasy value, but his recent stretch of games is hard to ignore. Fantasy managers should view him as a mid-range TE2 option this week.

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Noah Gray caught four passes for 66 yards and two touchdowns in the 30-27 win over the Carolina Panthers. Gray has caught four passes and two touchdowns in the past two games. With defenses focused on Travis Kelce, DeAndre Hopkins, and Xavier Worthy, Gray has found himself open for Patrick Mahomes. The 25-year-old has been a valuable safety outlet for Mahomes lately, but this production level is far from sustainable. Gray will try his best to score again next week against the Las Vegas Raiders. The Raiders rank 32nd in fantasy points allowed to opposing tight ends this season, making them the easiest matchup for Gray to perform against. Despite his recent scoring success, Gray is not a significant option in the offense yet and is best left on the waiver wire.

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Noah Gray caught four passes for 23 yards and two touchdowns in the 21-30 loss to the Buffalo Bills. The Chiefs collected their first loss of the season, but it was to no fault of Gray. The Chiefs backup tight end was one of the team's most productive players in the passing game. Gray's two touchdowns in this game were his first and second scores of the year. Gray will look to find the endzone again in next week's contest against the Carolina Panthers, who rank 32nd in fantasy points allowed to opposing tight ends this season. Despite his big game, Gray is not involved enough to be considered a usable fantasy asset in any matchup. Fantasy managers should leave Gray on the waiver wire.

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Noah Gray will not be a recommended option this Sunday when his team squares off against the Buffalo Bills in a premiere matchup. The 25-year-old is far and away the team's second option at TE, registering nearly 300 more snaps than the next-closest player at the position sans Travis Kelce. However, his involvement needs to be more consistent to warrant fantasy viability. Gray is averaging just 2.1 receptions and 25.1 yards per contest as a distant fourth option at best in Kansas City's passing attack. If Kelce were to miss time, the Duke product would become an intriguing option. Until then, he can safely be avoided for fantasy purposes. Gray is RotoBaller's PPR TE27 in this week's ranks.

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Noah Gray signed a three-year extension with the Kansas City Chiefs just hours prior to their season opener against the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Gray has spent his entire NFL career in Kansas City, totaling 640 receiving yards and four scores on 63 catches over the past three campaigns. Last season, he saw a career-high 305 yards and two scores. The 25-year-old will now call Kansas City home for the foreseeable future. Fantasy managers should leave Gray on the waiver wire for now, as Travis Kelce will continue to see the vast majority of targets at the tight end position. However, if Kelce were to miss an extended period, Gray could carve out a decent role for fantasy purposes.

Kansas City Chiefs tight ends Noah Gray and Jared Wiley "can be interchangeable within the offense as the second tight end in some formations," according to Nate Taylor of The Athletic. Gray had an impressive campaign in 2023, and although Wiley hasn't necessarily stood out in his first training camp, it sounds like the coaching staff trusts him enough to get on the field over Gray at times. Of course, the exact depth chart doesn't matter much for fantasy football purposes since Travis Kelce is the clear-cut alpha tight end and remains the only Chiefs tight end worth rostering in redraft leagues. Even if Kelce misses time in 2024, the fact that Gray and Wiley are interchangeable would make it difficult to trust either in fantasy football.
