ORONDE GADSDEN II NEWS

Solid output in upset win Gadsden gathered in 4 of 7 targets for 50 yards during Saturday's 42-38 win versus Miami (FL).

Impact Gadsden was held in check after putting up three straight 100-yard performances, but he was certainly a big part of this passing attack. The tight end had an excellent bounce-back season after his injury-riddled 2023 campaign, and has proven himself to be one of, if not the best receiving tight end in the country. He'll now need to decide whether or not to suit up for Syracuse's bowl game.

Third-straight 100-yard outing Gadsden caught 11 of 13 targets for 103 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 31-24 victory over Connecticut.

Impact Gadsden went off again against the Huskies, posting his third-straight 100-yard game and his fifth total on the season. It was also the third-straight week he saw double digit targets, indicating the Orange are making a concerted effort to get him involved.

NOVEMBER 25 • ROTOWIRE

Stacks great performances Gadsden gathered in 8 of 9 targets for 109 yards during Saturday's 33-25 win over California.

Impact Gadsden now has two-straight 100-yard games. After a stretch of just 16 targets over three weeks, he's now seen 21 total in the past two games. Unsurprisingly, that has coincided with better performances from quarterback Kyle McCord. Gadsden will look to keep it up next week against UConn, where he should have every opportunity to continue to dominate as a receiver.

NOVEMBER 18 • ROTOWIRE

Absurd catch highlights big day Gadsden logged eight receptions (on 12 targets) for 102 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 37-31 defeat to Boston College.

Impact Gadsden proved why he's one of the best tight ends in the nation against Boston College. His stat-line was phenomenal, but his preposterous one-handed backhand touchdown catch was even more impressive. Strangely, this was just the third game all season where he's seen double-digit targets. On a week to week basis, Gadsden has either been extremely quiet or poured on the production.

NOVEMBER 11 • ROTOWIRE

Held in check in narrow win Gadsden tallied two receptions (on four targets) for 18 yards during Saturday's 38-31 overtime win over Virginia Tech.

Impact Gadsden has been bottled up for two straight weeks now. His four targets were his lowest on the season. The tight end is coming off an injury, so it's possible the Orange didn't involve him in the game-plan all that much intentionally. Still, he'll look to bounce back next weekend in what should be an advantageous matchup against Boston College.

NOVEMBER 4 • ROTOWIRE

Bottled up vs. Panthers Gadsden caught 3 of 5 targets for 33 yards during Thursday's 41-13 defeat versus Pittsburgh.

Impact Gadsden was limited in Syracuse's rough loss to the Panthers. The tight end was banged up slightly in the game, which likely limited his impact. He's good to go for next week, and will remain one of Kyle McCord's favorite targets moving forward.

OCTOBER 28 • ROTOWIRE

Solid outing in win Gadsden caught 6 of 7 targets for 74 yards during Saturday's 24-17 win over North Carolina State.

Impact Gadsden had a very respectable outing against NC State, and it's good to see the tight end have a solid showing, rather than exclusively a dominant game or a silent one. Gadsden's targets have been all over the place, but he still hasn't logged fewer than six in a game. Syracuse will repeatedly try to throw him the ball, and more often than not, the star tight end will reward them. He'll look to build on this performance in a big game against undefeated Pittsburgh next week.

OCTOBER 14 • ROTOWIRE

Huge day through the air Gadsden hauled in 10 of 14 targets for 142 yards during Friday's 44-41 overtime victory against UNLV.

Impact After two straight quiet outings, Gadsden reminded onlookers why he's one of the top tight ends in the nation. His 142 yards were easily a season-high, as were his 10 catches and 14 targets. Gadsden is always heavily targeted in this offense; it's a matter of whether the tight end capitalizes. He certainly did against the Runnin' Rebels, and he'll look to stack good performances next week against a suspect NC State defense.

OCTOBER 7 • ROTOWIRE

Limited once again Gadsden logged one reception (on seven targets) for four yards during Saturday's 42-14 victory against Holy Cross.

Impact Gadsden was held in check for the second straight week, as Holy Cross managed to contain him to one grab. He was still heavily involved in the offense, as he was targeted seven times, but strangely enough FCS Holy Cross managed to shut down the star-pass-catcher. He'll look to bounce back on Friday night against UNLV.

OCTOBER 1 • ROTOWIRE

Held in check vs. Stanford Gadsden recorded two receptions (on five targets) for 12 yards during Friday's 26-24 loss to Stanford.

Impact Credit Stanford for knowing it had to stop the star tight end and executing that game plan extremely well. Syracuse's passing offense still had a big day, but Gadsden wasn't a part of that in the slightest. He'll look to bounce back in an extremely enticing Week 5 matchup with Holy Cross.

SEPTEMBER 23 • ROTOWIRE

Big day in big win Gadsden posted six receptions (on eight targets) for 93 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 31-28 win versus Georgia Tech.

Impact Gadsden continued his stellar start to the year against Georgia Tech. Through the first two weeks, he's averaging 10 targets a game and has three scores. He's also recorded at least 90 yards in both contests. Gadsden might be Syracuse's most dangerous receiving threat, and if Kyle McCord continues to play as well as he has, Gadsden could be in for a huge season.

Leading receiver in Week 1 Gadsden accrued seven receptions (on 12 targets) for 108 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 38-22 win over Ohio.

Impact Gadsden paced the Syracuse pass-catchers with his 12 targets, seven catches and 108 yards. He appeared to have a good rapport with Ohio State transfer quarterback Kyle McCord, which is an excellent sign for the tight end moving forward. He'll continue to be a dangerous receiving threat for the Orange this fall.

Full go for training camp Gadsden (foot) is full go for training camp, Christian De Guzman of SB Nation reports.

Impact Barely multiple games into Syracuse's 2023 season, Gadsden suffered a foot injury that immediately ended his campaign. It took more than 10 months since the injury for him to fully recover. Before it, Gadsden had been one of college football's most promising tight ends after logging 61 receptions for 969 yards and six touchdowns during 2022. Despite losing some luster, he still enters 2024 as a promising option at the tight end position. Even with a small sample of the 2023 season, Gadsden played well for how few opportunities he got, recording seven catches for 67 yards and one TD.

AUGUST 1 • ROTOWIRE

Trending in right direction Gadsden (foot) is moving well ahead of Syracuse's fall camp, Chris Carlson of Syracuse.com reports.

Impact Gadsden played in just two games last season following his breakout 2022 campaign in which he posted 61 catches for 969 yards and six touchdowns. The tight end is reportedly moving well and was able to participate in summer workouts. It's also worth noting that despite his gaudy receiving numbers, Gadsden has also bulked up to help with his in-line play and run blocking. His status will need to be monitored throughout fall camp, but the tight end at least appears to be moving in the right direction as Syracuse's opener against Ohio on Aug. 31 creeps closer.
