Chiefs' Noah Gray: Posts first career multi-TD game
Noah Gray gathered in four of five targets for 23 yards and two touchdowns during Sunday's 30-21 loss against the Bills.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.

Chiefs' Noah Gray: Sees downturn in playing time
Noah Gray hauled in each of his two targets for 18 yards during Sunday's 16-14 win versus the Broncos.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 point.

Chiefs' Noah Gray: No catches in win
Noah Gray didn't catch his lone target in Monday's 30-24 overtime win versus the Buccaneers.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.

Chiefs' Noah Gray: Season-high snap share in Week 8
Noah Gray hauled in all three of his targets for 23 yards during Sunday's 27-20 victory against the Raiders.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 Kansas City 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.

Chiefs' Noah Gray: Leading receiver on four targets
Noah Gray brought in all four of his targets for 66 yards in Sunday's 28-18 win over the 49ers.Gray finished as the Kansas City 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.

Chiefs' Noah Gray: Claims two passes on MNF
Noah Gray gathered in both of his targets for 29 yards during Monday's 26-13 victory against the Saints.Gray saw his workload climb a bit Monday as the Kansas City 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 dynasty leagues as the probable heir to the starting role once Travis Kelce hangs up the cleats, signing a three-year contract extension prior to the season.

Chiefs' Noah Gray: Posts season-best line in Week 4
Noah Gray reeled in all four of his targets for 40 yards during Sunday's 17-10 win versus the Chargers.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 Kansas City 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 was a struggling group behind Kelce and Worthy. Per Adam Teicher of ESPN.com, head coach Andy Reid plans to spread the ball around more widely moving forward. That could mean more work for Gray.

Chiefs' Noah Gray: Snares one pass in Week 3
Noah Gray logged one reception (on two targets) for 13 yards during Sunday's 22-17 victory over the Falcons.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.

Chiefs' Noah Gray: No impression on Week 2 box score
Noah Gray went without a target in Sunday's 26-25 victory over Cincinnati.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 should Travis Kelce miss some time.

Chiefs' Noah Gray: Makes three grabs in Week 1 win
Noah Gray secured all three of his targets for 37 yards during Thursday's 27-20 win over the Ravens.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 option in leagues that require multiple starting tight ends.
