Antonio Gates has been arguably the best fantasy football player this season. If Gates is on your fantasy team, you’re likely doing very well. However, Gates owners face bad news in Week 9 as the star tight end is listed as doubtful with a toe injury. Though he’s been playing with the injury lately, it has apparently gotten worse over the course of the last week.
On the season, Gates has 40 catches for 663 yards and nine touchdowns. His receiving yards are good for third in the NFL, while his TD number is tops in the league.
Fantasy owners have to hope if Gates misses Week 9 due to injury that it’s only a one game absence. He’s simply irreplaceable in the fantasy world — and the real world, for that matter.
Need a sleeper tight end in Week 9? Consider these names: Jacob Tamme, Ben Watson and Tony Moeaki.
