Los Angeles Chargers TE Oronde Gadsden II caught two passes for 23 yards in a 19-3 loss to the Denver Broncos in Week 18.
Huddle Up: After catching fire in the middle of the year, Gadsden had a quiet finish to the season after injuries began mounting on the offensive line. That being said, tight end is a thin position in fantasy playoff contests, and Gadsden has enough upside to be worth a look as a low-end starter.

Los Angeles Chargers TE Oronde Gadsden II caught three of his six targets for 32 yards and a touchdown in a 20-16 loss to the Houston Texans in Week 17.
Huddle Up: Gadsden's stat line would have been even better had he not bobbled a potential touchdown that turned into an interception. Overall, his numbers have been up and down in recent weeks, and he has been held to 41 yards or less in six of his last seven games. Gadsden is best used as a TE2.

Los Angeles Chargers TE Oronde Gadsden II registered four receptions for a team-best 61 yards on five targets in Week 15 against the Kansas City Chiefs.
Huddle Up: Gadsden's reception and yardage totals were his best since Week 7. He still hasn't had a touchdown since a Thursday game against the Minnesota Vikings on Oct. 23. He had some run as a TE1 in fantasy leagues, but he has slowly faded back into the TE2 territory.

Los Angeles Chargers TE Oronde Gadsden II posted one reception for seven yards in Week 14 against the Philadelphia Eagles. He was targeted four times.
Huddle Up: A revelation throughout the month of October, Gadsden has seen his production dry up, averaging just 22 yards per game over the last four. If you're in a league with rosters large enough to carry a second tight end, Gadsden is a good choice as he has flashed legit TE1 appeal at times. For those in standard formats, however, you can move on.

Los Angeles Chargers TE Oronde Gadsden II posted just a single 27-yard reception on two targets in Week 13 against the Las Vegas Raiders.
Huddle Up: After some amazing performances in October, totaling 24 receptions for 377 yards and two touchdowns on 27 targets in a four-game span from Weeks 6 through 9, he has really tailed off. He has just six grabs for 81 yards on 13 targets in the past three games, and he has been held out of the end zone in four in a row. He is back to being a TE2 in most fantasy leagues. Proceed with caution.

Los Angeles Chargers TE Oronde Gadsden II posted a pair of receptions for 41 yards on five targets in Week 11 against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Huddle Up: Gadsden has emerged as a solid low-end TE1 in all fantasy leagues this season. If you normally rely upon him for fantasy purposes, you'll need to make alternate plans in Week 12 with the team on a bye.

Los Angeles Chargers TE Oronde Gadsden II (knee) fully participated in practice Friday, Nov. 14, and is not on the injury report for Week 11.
Huddle Up: Gadsden suffered the injury in the last game but should not have any limitations against the Jacksonville Jaguars. He has posted at least 68 yards in four of the last four of the last five games and can be a No. 1 tight end in all fantasy leagues.
Posted: 11/14/2025 12:23 am GMT
Los Angeles Chargers TE Oronde Gadsden II (knee) was a full participant in practice Thursday, Nov. 13.
Huddle Up: It looks like Gadsden will be able to suit up against Jacksonville in Week 11, and he should remain a TE1 option for fantasy owners. Prior to exiting the Week 10 contest with the knee injury, Gadsden had reeled off four straight games with at least five catches and 60-plus receiving yards.
