Antonio Gates

Chargers' Antonio Gates projected for slightly bigger role in Week 5

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Antonio Gates is projected for a season-high 6.20 targets against the New York Giants on Sunday.

What It Means:

Gates has been targeted 5 times in each of the past two games, averaging 2.5 receptions for 24 yards per game. We expect those numbers to increase slightly against the Giants, who are allowing the most FanDuel points per game to opposing tight ends.

Our model projects Gates for 3.03 catches, 34.75 yards and 0.17 touchdowns, for a total of 6.0 FanDuel points at a cost of $4,600.
