Crosses goal line against Browns
Gray logged two receptions on five targets for 21 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 21-7 win against Cleveland.
Analysis: Gray didn't cross the 60-percent snap threshold in Week 15 like he did in the two previous contests, and he was unable to match the four grabs he totaled in each of the previous four games, but he made one of his two catches count by turning in his fifth touchdown of the 2024 campaign. Gray still amassed five targets in the contest -- his average over the last five games -- but Patrick Mahomes' ankle sprain could be worrisome for Kansas City's pass catchers. If Mahomes is unable to go against…read more

Notches four grabs against Chargers
Gray reeled in four of five targets for 26 yards during Sunday's 19-17 victory against the Chargers.
Analysis: Gray continues to see consistent work alongside Travis Kelce in two-tight end sets, claiming a 61 percent snap count share during Week 14, surpassing 60 percent of offensive snaps in three of the past four weeks. He's also logged an uptick in production over that four-game span, equaling his previous season high with four catches in each of the four games. Still, Gray is likely touchdown-dependent to claim fantasy relevance weekly, and he hasn't done so in either of the last two games after…read more

Productive again in Week 13
Gray finished Friday's 19-17 victory against Las Vegas with four catches on six targets for 58 yards.
Analysis: Though Gray couldn't get into the end zone after tallying two touchdowns in each of his previous two games, the fourth-year tight end still had a strong showing, as he ranked third on Kansas City in receiving yards. Two of his receptions went for over 20 yards, and Gray surpassed 50 yards overall for the third time this season. It's become clear of late that Gray (62 percent offensive snap share) and Travis Kelce (90 percent offensive snap share), who logged seven catches for 68 yards in the…read more

Two more scores
Gray recorded four catches on four targets for 66 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 30-27 win over the Panthers.
Analysis: Gray scored twice for the second consecutive week, this time coming on receptions of 35 and 11 yards. He's now earned at least four targets in consecutive games and seems to be prioritized ahead of peripheral pass catchers in the Chiefs' offense such as JuJu Smith-Schuster and Justin Watson. That could give Gray some streaming appeal going forward, though his overall lack of volume still makes him unreliable on a weekly basis.

Posts first career multi-TD game
Gray gathered in four of five targets for 23 yards and two touchdowns during Sunday's 30-21 loss against the Bills.
Analysis: Gray made the most of his targets in the red zone, collecting a pair of them for his first career multi-touchdown effort. The tight end played only two snaps fewer than Travis Kelce in Sunday's affair. Gray should continue to see regular reps in two-tight end sets and when Kelce needs a breather. That said, Gray's two touchdowns Sunday also marked his first two of the season, so this effort should be viewed as more of an anomaly than a repeatable performance.

Sees downturn in playing time
Gray hauled in each of his two targets for 18 yards during Sunday's 16-14 win versus the Broncos.
Analysis: After a promising four-game stretch spanning Week 4 to Week 8 that saw Gray post 13 catches for 158 yards, the fourth-year tight end has posted just two catches total over the past two games. Gray also saw a slight downturn in his playing time, just 39 snaps (57 percent) after he crossed the 60-percent threshold in each of the last three games. Either way, Gray has yet to find pay dirt this season and is the clear No. 2 at tight end, so he's likely nothing more than a deep dynasty stash at this…read more

No catches in win
Gray didn't catch his lone target in Monday's 30-24 overtime win versus the Buccaneers.
Analysis: Gray has performed quite well this season as the No. 2 tight end behind star TE Travis Kelce, as the former has produced 17 receptions for 208 yards through eight games. He needs to find the end zone to have any fantasy appeal.

Season-high snap share in Week 8
Gray hauled in all three of his targets for 23 yards during Sunday's 27-20 victory against the Raiders.
Analysis: Gray continues to see significant work and has posted a combined seven catches for 89 yards over the last two weeks after compiling only 10 catches over the first five games to open the year. He's also seen a spike in playing time as the Chiefs run more two-tight end sets. Gray likely remains off the radar in most redraft formats but could be worth consideration in some dynasty formats as the heir apparent to the lead tight end role when Travis Kelce calls it quits.

Leading receiver on four targets
Gray brought in all four of his targets for 66 yards in Sunday's 28-18 win over the 49ers.
Analysis: Gray finished as the Chiefs' leading receiver in an odd game that featured no passing touchdowns from either side. San Francisco keyed its defensive focus on limiting star tight end Travis Kelce (4-17-0), allowing the 25-year-old Gray to operate freely for his highest receiving total of the season. Fantasy managers should consider this a high-water mark for Gray so long as Kelce remains healthy, which the latter should be for next Sunday's tilt against the Raiders.

Claims two passes on MNF
Gray gathered in both of his targets for 29 yards during Monday's 26-13 victory against the Saints.
Analysis: Gray saw his workload climb a bit Monday as the Chiefs ran more two-tight end sets, and this could prove to be a theme moving forward with Hollywood Brown (shoulder) and Rashee Rice (knee) both done for the regular season and potentially beyond. Even if that's the case, Gray hasn't emerged as a major threat in the passing attack just yet, but he has reeled in 10 of 11 targets for 119 yards to date. Gray is likely fine to leave on waivers in most formats, but he could hold some small value in…read more

Posts season-best line in Week 4
Gray reeled in all four of his targets for 40 yards during Sunday's 17-10 win versus the Chargers.
Analysis: Gray's four grabs and 40 yards were high-water marks for the season. He played 32 offensive snaps in the contest, which is about on par with his previous work. The fourth-year tight could claim a heavier share of the snap pie moving forward following star wideout Rashee Rice's knee injury Sunday. Outside of veteran tight end Travis Kelce and rookie Xavier Worthy, the Chiefs will need some pass-catching options to step up. Gray's 4-40 line from Sunday at least displays a pulse in what otherwise…read more

Snares one pass in Week 3
Gray logged one reception (on two targets) for 13 yards during Sunday's 22-17 victory over the Falcons.
Analysis: Gray continues to operate in the second-string role at tight end behind Travis Kelce, playing 50 percent of the offensive snaps in Sunday's tilt. However, he only ran 14 routes in the game, which isn't particularly conducive to a sizable fantasy output. Barring Travis Kelce missing time, Gray isn't worth rostering in fantasy formats other than dynasty, where he could hold future value once Kelce calls it quits.

No impression on Week 2 box score
Gray went without a target in Sunday's 26-25 victory over Cincinnati.
Analysis: On a more positive note, Gray still played 57 percent of the offensive snaps in the game, marking a slight bump from his playing time in the opener against the Ravens. Still, he's unlikely to compile worthwhile fantasy totals while serving in the second-string role at tight end, especially with an additional weapon available to Patrick Mahomes in rookie Xavier Worthy, and with second-year wideout Rashee Rice still gobbling up a hefty target share. Gray could enter the conversation a bit more…read more

Makes three grabs in Week 1 win
Gray secured all three of his targets for 37 yards during Thursday's 27-20 win over the Ravens.
Analysis: Gray outperformed star tight end Travis Kelce, who had three grabs for 34 yards despite drawing one more target, during Kansas City's season opener. The 2021 fifth-round pick, who signed a three-year extension just prior to Thursday's game, played 54 percent of offensive snaps compared to Kelce's 89 percent, so he remains relegated to backup duties heading into a Week 2 matchup against the Bengals. Still, if Gray can continue looking solid in two-TE sets, he may emerge as a viable fantasy…read more

Inks three-year extension
The Chiefs signed Gray to a three-year, $18 million contract extension Thursday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: The deal contains $10.1 million guaranteed. Gray was set to enter the final year of his rookie deal in 2024, but the two sides worked out an extension ahead of Thursday night's kickoff with the Ravens. Gray hasn't produced much in the box score across three seasons, turning in a 63-640-4 receiving line across 50 games, but he's cemented himself as Travis Kelce's top backup.

Production stagnates in 2023
Gray finished the 2023 regular season with 28 catches for 305 yards and two touchdowns on 41 targets.
Analysis: While Gray didn't take a step back this season, he didn't really leap forward offensively either, essentially matching his numbers from a season ago. Travis Kelce turns 35 in October and is likely drawing closer to the end of his career, so the Chiefs' brass may evaluate this offseason whether Gray is the future of the tight end position in KC. Gray remains on his rookie deal through the 2024 campaign and will presumably continue to contribute in two-tight end sets next season, assuming the…read more

Nabs three passes
Gray gathered in three of four targets for 17 yards during Sunday's 25-17 win against the Bengals.
Analysis: Gray continues to see work alongside Travis Kelce at tight end in two-tight end sets, but he hasn't reeled in more than three passes in a game this year. He has just two touchdowns on the ledger. He hasn't compiled more than 38 receiving yards in a game this year, leaving him well off the fantasy radar in leagues besides ones potentially holding him in deep dynasty formats, where he could gain value should Kelce elect to retire after the 2023 campaign. That said, Gray could see slightly…read more

Records three receptions
Gray played 30 of the Chiefs' 60 snaps on offense and finished with three catches for 30 yards on three targets in Sunday's 31-17 win over the Raiders.
Analysis: Gray failed to record a reception for the first time all season in the Chiefs' Week 11 loss to the Eagles, but he was able to bounce back nicely in Kansas City's come-from-behind win over the Raiders. As long as top tight end Travis Kelce is available, Gray is unlikely to rank as anything more than a tertiary option in the Kansas City passing game, though the Duke product does at least see fairly consistent involvement. Gray has drawn between one and five targets in each of his 11 appearances…read more

Minimal impact continues
Gray reeled in both of his targets for 14 yards during Thursday's 19-8 victory against the Broncos.
Analysis: While Gray is seeing a decent number of snaps consistently, it's simply the case among any targets not named Travis Kelce in the passing attack that the looks are going to be widely distributed. Gray has no more than three targets in a contest since the season opener, and there's little reason to expect any change on that front as long as Kelce is available.

Notches pair of catches Sunday
Gray gathered in both of his targets for 21 yards during Sunday's 27-20 victory versus the Vikings.
Analysis: Gray saw an uptick in his playing time this week due to Travis Kelce missing some action during the contest after Kelce suffered an ankle injury midgame. Pending the status of Kelce for Thursday's contest against the Broncos, Gray could be in line for a slightly healthier workload, though that doesn't guarantee a sizable fantasy output.

Ready to go at Jets
Gray (illness) does not carry an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game at the Jets.
Analysis: After missing practice Wednesday and Thursday with an illness, Gray was a full participant at practice Friday and will suit up for Week 4. His snap count has remained relatively steady even with the return of Travis Kelce, but he's only seen five targets over the past two games.

Catches three passes
Gray secured all three of his targets for 38 yards in Sunday's 17-9 win over the Jaguars.
Analysis: Gray reeled in three catches for the second-straight week, despite Travis Kelce making his 2023 debut in Week 2. Surprisingly, the third-year tight end's 41 offensive snaps Sunday were just two fewer than that of Kelce, who saw a team-high nine targets in the contest. Gray's role will likely be limited moving forward and should keep him off the fantasy radar in Week 3 when the Chiefs host the Bears.

Headed back to No. 2 role
Gray is set to serve as the Chiefs' No. 2 tight end in Sunday's game against the Jaguars with starter Travis Kelce (knee) listed as questionable but expected to make his season debut, Ed Easton Jr. of USA Today reports.
Analysis: While Kelce was sidelined for the Chiefs' season-opening loss to the Lions, Gray stepped into a starting role and played a career-high 87 percent of Kansas City's offensive snaps. Despite the heightened snap count, Gray didn't come close to matching Kelce's usual production as a receiver, recording three catches for 31 yards on five targets. Though Gray often took the field for more than half of the Chiefs' offensive snaps in games when Kelce was available last season, the former often served…read more

Serviceable in Week 1 spot start
Gray brought in three of five targets for 31 yards in the Chiefs' 21-20 loss to the Lions on Thursday night.
Analysis: Gray drew the start for Travis Kelce (knee), but it was fellow tight end Blake Bell who scored a touchdown between the two fill-ins. However, Gray tied for second in receptions and third in receiving yards on the night for the Chiefs, who used an all-hands-on-deck approach in their attempt to make up for Kelce's absence. The third-year pro took a sizable step forward in his production in 2022 with a 28-299-1 line on 34 targets, so Thursday's production could be somewhat indicative of what could…read more

Expected to start for injured Kelce
Gray is expected to serve as the Chiefs' starting tight end for Thursday's game against the Lions with Travis Kelce (knee) inactive for the contest, Sports Radio 810 WHB Kansas City reports.
Analysis: The Chiefs have Blake Bell and practice-squad call-up Matt Bushman available as additional options at tight end, but Gray is listed second on the depth chart and should thus be first in line to fill in for Kelce, who will miss his first game since Week 16 of the 2021 season.

Could start Week 1 if Kelce sits
Gray appears to be first in line to serve as Kansas City's top pass-catching tight end in Thursday's game against the Lions if Travis Kelce (knee) is sidelined for the contest, Adam Teicher of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Kelce departed Tuesday's practice with a hyperextended knee, and while the team's initial feeling is that the eight-time Pro Bowler avoided a long-term injury, his status is still in doubt for Thursday's season opener, per Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. If Kelce ends up sitting or is limited in some capacity Thursday, Gray likely wouldn't command the same sort of target volume, but the third-year Duke product may still draw enough looks to make for an intriguing streaming…read more

Gray gathered in their only target for 14 yards during the Week 18 win against the Raiders.
Analysis: Gray tallied just one catch in each of the final three games of the regular season and no more than three in any single game while reaching pay dirt just once through the air and once on the ground. Gray at least finished 2022 with an offensive snap count percentage (52.7) north of 50 for the first time in his young career and may be aligned as the top in-house option to take over at tight end once Travis Kelce retires.

Grabs another three passes
Gray reeled in all three targets for 31 yards during Sunday's 30-24 overtime win versus Houston.
Analysis: Gray has accumulated three grabs in each of the last two weeks, a number he has reached four times but hasn't bested so far this year. Gray also has just two touchdowns -- one receiving and one rushing -- on the season, so he's not particularly relevant in most formats. However, he may still be worthy as a bench stash in some dynasty leagues just in case he takes over as the starting tight end in Kansas City once Travis Kelce retires.

Gray reeled in all three targets for 45 yards during Sunday's 34-28 win against the Broncos.
Analysis: Gray has played a fair amount over the last four weeks, logging snap shares near or above 60 percent. He matched a season-high total for both yards and receptions Sunday, which speaks to where he is currently as a fantasy tight end. Gray doesn't fit on many rosters at this point but could be worth a stash in some dynasty formats as the potential heir at the tight end position in Kansas City once Travis Kelce hangs up the cleats.

Adds two more catches to ledger
Gray was on the field for 49 of the Chiefs' 76 snaps on offense and caught two passes for 16 yards on two targets in Sunday's 26-10 win over the Rams.
Analysis: Even though he's the Chiefs' No. 2 tight end behind Travis Kelce, Gray has arguably out-produced multiple low-end starters around the NFL while he continues to share the field frequently with the seven-time Pro Bowler. Gray has played at least 43 percent of the Chiefs' offensive snaps in each of the team's first 11 games and has drawn at least one target on each occasion, producing an 18-174-1 receiving line in the process. He's also added a one-yard rushing touchdown to his ledger. Should…read more

Hits paydirt in Week 10
Gray recorded two receptions for 20 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-17 win over the Jaguars.
Analysis: Quarterback Patrick Mahomes found both of his top two tight ends for scores in the Week 10 victory, as Travis Kelce also cashed in with a seven-yard touchdown grab late in the third quarter. Kelce remains locked in as the Chiefs' top pass catcher and arguably the best fantasy tight end, but Gray often shares the field with him and has held a consistent, albeit low-upside role within the Kansas City offense.

Credited with first rushing TD
Gray carried once for a one-yard touchdown in Sunday's 41-31 win over the Buccaneers.
Analysis: Though the tight end couldn't corral his lone target on the night, he found paydirt for the first time this season when he motioned in front of quarterback Patrick Mahomes and plunged across the goal line on a direct snap. All three of the Chiefs' tight ends finished the game with six points, as Travis Kelce and Jody Fortson both recorded receiving touchdowns. Moving forward, Gray and Fortson will likely continue to function mostly as blockers whenever they're on the field.

Analysis: Gray's 26-yard catch and run with less than a minute left in the third quarter marked the longest reception through his first two seasons in the NFL. With snap shares ranging between 42 and 55 percent in each of the three games the Chiefs have played this season, Gray has carved out a larger role than anticipated behind top tight end Travis Kelce.

Gray snagged a 10-yard reception across two targets in Sunday's 44-21 win over the Cardinals.
Analysis: Starting tight end Travis Kelce had a huge outing in Week 1 (eight receptions for 121 yards and a touchdown on nine targets), but the Chiefs were still able to find playing time for depth options in Gray (36 snaps) and Fortson (22 snaps). Gray and Fortson are still likely to operate mostly as blockers when they're on the field, limiting the upside of both players so long as Kelce and the team's other key pass catchers are available.

Reprises backup role
Following the recent NFL Draft, Gray remains in the mix to back up Travis Kelce along with Blake Bell and Jody Fortson (Achilles), Nate Taylor of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Of course, as long as Kelce, who logged 159 targets last season, remains available, there's not going to be much volume for Kansas City's reserve tight ends. In 2021, Gray caught seven of his 10 targets for 36 yards and a TD in 16 games. Meanwhile, Bell logged 13 targets in 16 contests and Fortson five in six outings.

Analysis: Gray finished out his rookie season with the Chiefs having amassed seven catches for 36 yards and a touchdown on 10 targets. While it's nothing to write home about, the 2021 fifth-round pick did grade out pretty well as a blocker overall and stands a good chance of moving up a spot on the depth chart in 2022.

Playing time returns to normal
Gray caught his only target for six yards during Sunday's loss to the Bengals.
Analysis: Gray has tallied a total of three receptions for 18 yards over the past two games after failing to record a reception in the three prior contests. That being said, Gray saw just 17 percent of the offensive snaps in the contest, his lowest since Week 9 against the Packers after he played a season-high 72 percent last week with Travis Kelce sidelined. As long as Kelce and Blake Bell are healthy, it's unlikely Gray will see a ton more playing time than what he's currently receiving.

Sees uptick in playing time
Gray compiled a pair of catches for 12 yards on two targets Sunday versus the Steelers. He played a season-high 50 snaps in the contest.
Analysis: Gray saw the biggest boost in his playing time with Travis Kelce (COVID-19 protocols) sitting out and turned in his best effort of the season, albeit to the tune of just two catches for 12 yards. He only figures to be slightly interesting next week if Kelce remains out of commission against the Bengals.

Held without catch again
Gray was not targeted in Thursday's game against the Chargers.
Analysis: Gray has not received a target since Week 11 versus Dallas but has played 20-plus percent of the offensive snaps in each of the last five contests. That trend figures to continue next week, and Gray could be looking at an expansion in his snap count if Travis Kelce -- who was placed on the COVID-19/reserve list Monday -- isn't cleared to play ahead of Sunday's clash with the Steelers.

Making good initial impression
Gray has performed well during offseason workouts and could see a significant amount of playing time both occasionally spelling Travis Kelce and playing in two-tight-end sets, Adam Teicher of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The Chiefs selected Gray in the fifth round of the 2021 NFL Draft with hopes of grooming him as a potential replacement for the 31-year-old Kelce down the road. It appears he's off to a good start in that regard, and he could be in line for a good amount of work as a rookie if he keeps it up. Gray finished out his 2020 season at Duke with 29 catches for 285 yards and a pair of touchdowns over 10 games.
