Gains 30 yards against NE
Gadsden had three receptions on as many targets for 30 yards in Sunday's 16-3 loss to the Patriots.
ANALYSIS
Gadsden's pedestrian receiving line was actually good enough for second among Los Angeles' receiving options in a dismal passing display on the road against New England. The 22-year-old still can hang his hat on overachieving during the regular season, as he produced a 49-664-3 receiving line over 15 regular-season games after being taken in the fifth round of April's NFL Draft. Gadsden never relinquished his grasp on the starting job once he took over for an injured Will Dissly in Week 4. Gadsden, a Syracuse product, is in prime position to thrive in his sophomore season when he begins the 2026 campaign as the Chargers' starting tight end.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Notably, two of the athletic tight end's receptions were chunk plays, as Smith notes Gadsden and Herbert connected for a gain of over 20 yards up the seam and then hit paydirt again with a long completion down the left sideline in 11-on-11 drills.
