2024 Fantasy Outlook
Gray posted nearly identical stats in 2022 and 2023, going from 28 catches for 299 receiving yards and two scrimmage touchdowns to 28 catches for 305 yards and two touchdowns. Gray played at least 47 percent of snaps in all but four games last season, but Travis Kelce got the vast majority of targets at tight end. The 2023 season opener was the only game in which Patrick Mahomes played but Kelce didn’t, and while Gray set a career high with five targets in that game, his three catches for 31 yards were nothing to write home about. Gray’s best path to fantasy relevance would be a Kelce injury, but even in that scenario, it’s unclear whether Gray has the pass catching skills to be more than a supporting piece in a Kansas City offense that beefed up its receiving corps in the offseason and added tight end Jared Wiley in the fourth round of the 2024 NFL Draft.

Notches four grabs against Chargers

December 10, 2024
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 reaching pay dirt four times between Weeks 11 and 12. Next up is a Browns defense sitting around the bottom third of the league against tight ends, so Gray may have another opportunity to produce in Week 15.

How often does Noah Gray run a route when on the field for a pass play?
This data will let you see how Noah Gray and the other tight ends for the Chiefs are being used. Some tight ends may have a lot of snaps, but they're not that useful for fantasy purposes because they're not actually running routes. This data will help you see when this is the case.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
2021
The Chiefs selected Gray in the fifth round of the 2021 NFL draft, hoping to develop him into Travis Kelce's heir at the tight end position. After a quiet first season with only seven grabs for 36 yards and a score, Gray upped his production in his second pro campaign, reeling in 28 passes for 299 yards and a single score. The 24-year-old enters the coming season in a similar situation, still working in a complementary role behind Kelce. In that context, Gray is unlikely to garner much fantasy interest outside of some dynasty formats, but he could move on to the radar should Kelce miss time.
Kansas City spent a fifth-round pick on Gray in 2021 with hopes of him potentially developing into a replacement for Travis Kelce down the road. As a rookie, he caught seven of his 10 targets for 36 yards and a TD in 16 games. In the event that starter Travis Kelce misses time for any reason in 2022, it's unclear who would fill in as the team's starting TE, with a time-share approach in which Gray -- a 2021 fifth-rounder -- would likely be a factor, along with Blake Bell and Jody Fortson.
Selected in the fifth round of the 2021 NFL Draft, Gray is likely viewed as a developmental player at the tight end position with a pair of veterans in Travis Kelce and Blake Bell slotted ahead of him in the pecking order. Kelce is 31 years old, so it's possible Gray could be a contributor down the road if the Chiefs' star tight end has plans to retire in the coming seasons. Gray's best campaign at Duke came as a junior in 2019, when he racked up 51 catches for 392 yards and three touchdowns on 72 targets. He'll likely need to improve his blocking before being entrusted with regular snaps, though Gray could be a somewhat interesting receiving option should injuries open up opportunities for him in Kansas City's offense.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Reliable target for Mahomes
TEKansas City Chiefs
November 23, 2024
Gray has emerged as a reliable target for Patrick Mahomes in the Chiefs' passing attack, and the fourth-year tight end could see a larger role in the offense during the second half of the regular season, Adam Teicher of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Gray is coming off the first multi-touchdown game of his career, finishing with four catches on five targets for 23 yards and two scores against the Bills in Week 11. Gray has just 23 catches through 10 regular-season games, but that's on 26 targets for a catch percentage of 88.5 percent. Not only is that the highest rate on the Chiefs ahead of Travis Kelce and DeAndre Hopkins, but Gray's catch percentage leads the NFL among non-running backs. Teicher relays that Gray does a little bit of everything to help unlock Kansas City's offense, and the 25-year-old tight end could be called upon more in the passing game down the stretch.
