Who Should I Start? Mike Gesicki or Noah Gray

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Mike Gesicki (pectoral) has been placed on Injured Reserve due to a pectoral injury, per ESPN's Adam Schefter. The 30-year-old has recorded eight catches for 61 yards on 16 targets through his first six games of 2025. He will now miss at least the next four games for Cincinnati. With Gesicki sidelined and tight end Tanner Hudson (concussion) questionable to play in Week 7 against the Pittsburgh Steelers, the Bengals will likely turn to Noah Fant and Drew Sample to handle the tight end snaps. Fant has recorded 16 catches for 107 yards and a touchdown on 18 targets across five games this season and could be a low-end streaming option for fantasy managers in Week 7.

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Noah Gray continues having minimal success in the first half of the season. On Monday, Gray hauled in two of his four targets for 23 yards in the win over the Washington Commanders. The four targets was actually the highest volume Gray has seen since Week 3. The 26-year-old is playing over 50 percent of the offensive snaps, but the Chiefs just aren't targeting him in the passing game. He remains the backup to Travis Kelce and that isn't going to change. Gray isn't going to be relevant in fantasy formats while Kelce is healthy.
