The young midfielder featured against Hull City on Wednesday night as Leeds played out a 0-0 draw in the Championship clash.
Gray has regularly been trusted by Leeds boss Daniel Farke this season, but Redfearn believes that the teenager is now looking a little lost after a run of games.
The former Leeds manager feels that Grey needs a vacation, especially with Glen Kamara lurking in the background.
Redfearn remarked on BBC Radio Leeds, “I just think he’s looking a little bit lost in it now, which is normal, he’s just young and making his way.
“He’s been sensational since he’s come back and it might just be time to give him a breather.
“Obviously you’ve got Glen Kamara.”
Leeds’ point at Hull has edged them up to ninth in the Championship standings ahead of a weekend clash at Elland Road against Watford
