Chigoziem Okonkwo vs Noah Gray: The Full Breakdown
Chigoziem Okonkwo and Noah Gray are both viable fantasy tight ends heading into 2026, but their 2025 production tells two different stories. Chigoziem Okonkwo averaged 6.5 PPG across 16 games with the Tennessee Titans, while Noah Gray posted 4.6 PPG in 17 appearances for the Kansas City Chiefs.
A 1.9-PPG gap gives Chigoziem Okonkwo the edge on paper, but paper does not account for Thursday night matchups, weather games, or a star defender returning from injury. The real question is not who was better in 2025, but who is the better start this specific week.
Both see steady target volume for the tight end position. Chigoziem Okonkwo had 42 catches for 462 yards; Noah Gray posted 38 for 385. At a position where most starters barely clear 7 PPG, this class of tight end is where the fantasy advantage lives week to week.
Chigoziem Okonkwo has his bye in Week 5, and Noah Gray rests in Week 6. Managers rostering both need waiver wire depth at tight end for those two weeks, and that is exactly the kind of planning DraftCall's matchup engine surfaces automatically so you are not scrambling on a Sunday morning.
