2025 Fantasy Outlook
Chism joined the Patriots as an undrafted free agent after a highly productive stint at Eastern Washington, highlighted by a 120-catch effort in 12 games in 2024. The 5-foot-10, 198-pounder landed the richest deal among the team's 16-member UDFA class, and, based on the early impressions he's made during his on-field work as a pro, Chism has a chance to parlay his slot skills into a role in an unsettled New England wideout corps.

RANKS
Signed a three-year, $2.99 million contract with the Patriots in May of 2025.
Appears in eight games as rookie
Chism caught three passes for 75 yards and a touchdown across eight regular-season games during the 2025 season.
ANALYSIS
Chism joined the team as an undrafted free agent last May and was able to earn a spot on the active roster but saw only limited action on offense for most of the season. The 24-year-old didn't record his first reception until Week 17 and will look to earn a larger role in New England's offense during the 2026 season.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could make NFL debut vs. NOLA
Chism could be active and make his NFL regular-season debut in the Patriots' Week 6 road tilt against the Saints on Sunday, Brian Hines of SB Nation reports.
ANALYSIS
The undrafted rookie out of Eastern Washington entered training camp as a longshot to make the Patriots' 53-man roster. However, Chism impressed coaches and players alike in practices and played well in his two preseason games, logging 12 catches on 14 targets for 121 yards and two touchdowns. He was inactive for the Patriots' first five regular-season games but could be on the field Sunday, and Hines relays that Chism, if active, would likely fill in as a kickoff returner due to the absence of running back Antonio Gibson, who was placed on injured reserve Friday with a knee injury.
