Who Should I Start? Noah Gray or Brock Bowers

Saturday, November 8, 12:57 AM

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Noah Gray was held without a catch and played a season-low 37 percent of the offensive snaps during last week's loss to the Buffalo Bills. The direct backup to Travis Kelce heads into the Chiefs' bye week with a goal to get back on track, earn more snaps, and produce at a higher level in Week 11 against the Denver Broncos. It has been a disappointing start to Gray's fifth pro season. Last year, he had occasional standalone value and finished the year as the overall TE22 in PPR leagues. So far this year, he is the TE55, has just 1.2 touchdowns per game, and is still searching for his first touchdown of the campaign. Even as Kelce shows some signs of aging, Gray can be dropped to waivers in all redraft and most dynasty leagues.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers caught just one of his three targets for 31 yards during Thursday's Week 10 loss against the Denver Broncos. Just a few days removed from a spectacular three-touchdown performance, Bowers came tumbling back down to earth with the first one-catch outing of his young career. On a positive note, this week's dud was likely an anomaly, and he should bounce back in Week 11 against the Dallas Cowboys. However, that doesn't negate the fact that Bowers massively underperformed his fantasy projection this week. Managers who started Bowers are likely to enter their Week 10 matchups with an early deficit.
