2025 Fantasy Outlook
In his second year as a pro, Gonzalez recorded 59 total tackles, 11 pass defenses, two of which were interceptions, and a fumble recovery over 16 regular-season contests in 2024. The 2023 first-rounder is a rising star in a New England defense that now includes free-agent addition Carlton Davis, giving the team a nice one-two combo at outside cornerback. Read Past Outlooks

Past Fantasy Outlooks

2023
A torn labrum in his shoulder limited Gonzalez to four regular-season games as a rookie, but now that the No. 17 overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft is back in action, he's slated to claim a key role in New England's secondary this coming season. Along with Jonathan Jones and Marcus Jones, Gonzalez forms the nucleus of the team's cornerback group, and provided he can stay healthy, the Oregon product will have an opportunity to achieve IDP relevance in his second campaign as a pro.
Gonzalez, who surprisingly fell to the Patriots in the No. 17 slot of the 2023 NFL Draft, profiles as the "toolsiest" corner in his class at 6-2, 201 pounds with 4.38 speed and the length to stick on the outside. Not only was the Oregon product a great value, he also fills what was considered one of the team's top pre-draft needs. As a result, Gonzalez should challenge for reps immediately opposite Jonathan Jones.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Gets top-100 recognition
CBNew England Patriots
July 10, 2025
Gonzalez was voted 84th among the top 100 players of 2025 by his fellow players.
ANALYSIS
Gonzalez's efforts were mostly wasted on a New England team that ranked 22nd defensively and went 4-13, but the second-year cornerback's contributions were recognized by his peers. Gonzalez suited up for 16 games in 2024 after being limited to just four as a rookie in 2023, and his 54.5 completion percentage allowed was the third-lowest mark among 33 players that were the nearest defender for at least 75 passes against.
