Kansas City Chiefs’ Super Bowl roster includes former Leominster (Massachusetts) TE Noah Gray
There’s one representative from the state of Massachusetts playing in today’s Super Bowl LVIII at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.
That player is former Leominster High School’s Noah Gray, who is no stranger to the big game, as he was apart of last year’s Super Bowl winning squad.
Gray, playing in the shadow of Travis Kelce, has been very productive at the position the last couple of seasons for Kansas City. The tight end during the regular season hauled in 28 passes for 305 yards and two touchdowns.
Last season is when Gray really started to come into his own as a tight end, with the former Duke product catching 28 passes for 299 yards and a touchdown.
Hailing from Gardner, Massachusetts during his high school days, Gray actually played quarterback his junior season before transitioning back to playing wide receiver while at Leominster. Gray his junior year completed 101-of-179 passes for 1,707 yards and 21 touchdowns. In his senior campaign at receiver, Gray caught 30 passes for 619 yards and eight touchdowns.
During his time in Durham playing for the Blue Devils collegiately, Gray had his best season come junior year and caught 51 passes for 392 yards and three touchdowns.
