Jeff BlaylockHOST
Even when both of those guys were on the shelf in Weeks 3 and 4, Gadsden barely played more than half of the team's offensive snaps, and in one of those games, he wasn't targeted at all.
Jeff BlaylockHOST
Worse, Arunde Gadsden has the same number of touchdowns this season as journeyman practice squatter Hayden Rucci won.
Jeff BlaylockHOST
Gadsden's 9.7% target share ranks 30th among tight ends with at least 50 routes run, and his 1.02 yards per route run ranks 35th.
Jeff BlaylockHOST
This is not the role that his dynasty investors or I envisioned, and this free fall may not be over yet.
Chris HayreHOST
One for 16.
Chris HayreHOST
Hayden Rucci, one, seven, and a touchdown.
Chris HayreHOST
Trey Harris was the most targeted guy.
Chris HayreHOST
Only played a half, two for 16.
SamHOST
Um, one final thing I wanted to mention, because I mentioned it in our group chat and I just couldn't stop laughing over it.
SamHOST
Uh, Justin Herbert threw a touchdown to Hayden Rucci, uh, in this game.
SamHOST
You know-
MylesHOST
Yeah
MylesHOST
Yes.
MylesHOST
Yeah.
SamHOST
Um, and like I said, Hayden Rucci, Charlie Kolar, they spent some decent money to bring in obviously.
SamHOST
And then I looked at the O-line and I was like, "I don't think I recognize three names on this." You know, I know Cole Strange and Joe Alt, but Jake Slaughter, Coyote Awaseke, and Travis Burke are the other three O-linemen.
Noah FurtadoGUEST
And so when, when you ask me about Mike McDaniel and Justin Herbert, it's like, well, how, how is everyone going to be on the same page? You know, that's what I've been trying to find out.
Noah FurtadoGUEST
And I think the consensus is, like, someone like Hayden Rucci, I don't know if you- Our viewers know who that is necessarily.
Noah FurtadoGUEST
Uh, he's a tight end they brought in two to three weeks into the season.
Noah FurtadoGUEST
He actually might be one of the most experienced players on that team with McDaniel's scheme.
8 MINS LATER
Daniel PopperGUEST
Yeah
Max BrowneHOST
... get some Steve Harbaugh- Harbaugh banter on the press conferences.
Daniel PopperGUEST
Interesting thing that, that Noah said, right? He's talking to players in the locker room, he's talking to Hayden Rucci and, and they're saying that, like, it can take a full year before you can fully understand and grasp this offense.
Max BrowneHOST
[laughs] So that-
Adrián García MárquezHOST
Se está haciendo tarde, pero hay tiempo contra la división.
Adrián García MárquezHOST
Vamos a la pausa y al volver tenemos a Hayden Rucci y le vamos a preguntar si es tan complicado como lo estamos viendo nosotros procesar este libreto ofensivo o estamos locos todos, simplemente la NFL es demasiado rápida la defensiva y todos te comen tu lunch los domingos.
Adrián García MárquezHOST
[cortina musical] Ahora, ahora se une a nosotros, eh, Hayden Rucci.
Adrián García MárquezHOST
Y la verdad, Hayden, tremendo touchdown, tu primer touchdown en la NFL y te vamos a hablar puro español, Hayden.
Adrián García MárquezHOST
Just kidding, we're not gonna just speak to you in Spanish.

Hayden RucciGUEST
So being the process-oriented day by day is crucial to success, crucial to getting better each week, and just developing throughout the year and getting better each week.
Adrián García MárquezHOST
[laughs]
Matt Money SmithHOST
Uh, estamos con Hayden Rucci, eh, ala cerrada de los Chargers.
Kyle RichardsonHOST
Charlie Kohler, he came back from injury last week, and he had 37 receiving yards on three receptions, and he played 76% of the snaps.
Kyle RichardsonHOST
Just to complicate things a little bit further, Hayden Rucci, he had one target last week and he scored a touchdown on that target, but he only played 18% of the snaps.
Kyle RichardsonHOST
Kansas City allows the third most fantasy points per game to opposing tight ends.
Kyle RichardsonHOST
They are allowing almost 22 fantasy points per game.
Chris CashHOST
I wanna see how they do in tandem.
Chris CashHOST
And then we've got Hayden Rucci.
Chris CashHOST
Let's see what the kid's got.
Chris CashHOST
Or Patrick Herbert.
Jason WellsHOST
Like, who, who is, who is...
Jason WellsHOST
Again, he had four rookie starters on offensive line, and his top receivers were Charlie Kohler, Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Trey Harris, Theo Weiss, Hayden Rucci.
Jason WellsHOST
Uh, bad.
Jason WellsHOST
Very, very, very bad.
Tony KassHOST
So awful
Kevin NearyHOST
... money goes to anyone who bet that Hayden Rucci, number 40, would get a touchdown.
Kevin NearyHOST
I mean, you'd have...
Kevin NearyHOST
You couldn't even bet that on FanDuel.
speaker_9SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Touchdown.
speaker_9SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Hayden Rucci on the receiving end.
Game Preview GuyHOST
Two award-winning actors looking like they're in a B movie.
Game Preview GuyHOST
Hopefully Herbert gets Ladd McConkey and Quentin Johnston back for this one.
