Who Should I Start? Will Dissly or Noah Gray

Sunday, October 5, 3:28 PM

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Will Dissly (knee) is inactive for Sunday's Week 5 contest against the Washington Commanders. He had been listed as questionable and seemed to be trending in the right direction after logging a full practice Friday, but in the end, the Chargers decided to make him inactive. Oronde Gadsden will operate as Los Angeles' primary tight end while Tyler Conklin fills a depth role.

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Noah Gray has looked very strong in training camp and is receiving strong buzz from reports. Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated noted that the tight end looks like a "high-end" starter. Throughout his four-year career in Kansas City, Gray has typically taken the backseat to future Hall of Famer Travis Kelce. However, after catching just 28 passes in both 2022 and 2023, Gray was able to enjoy a mini-breakout season in 2024. Last fall, Gray caught a career-best 40 passes for 437 yards and five touchdowns. He enjoyed productive stretch from Weeks 10 through 15 when he averaged a solid 10.2 PPR points per game. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on his progression early in the season as he could continue to carve out a role behind Kelce. However, for now, Kelce remains the clear TE1 in Kansas City. Gray is best viewed as a high-upside TE3 in deeper formats.
