NE TE Hunter Henry - Week 11 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 11 vs Los Angeles Rams

Week 10 was a quiet week for Hunter Henry, who finished as the TE37 which is a long way off his seasonal rank of TE16 in Half-PPR points per game. Henry should be able to get close to his seasonal average against a Rams defense that ranks 23rd in aFPA to tight ends this season. Henry has had at least five receptions in three of his last four games, so he should be able to deliver mid-tier TE2 numbers this time.

NE TE Hunter Henry - Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 at Chicago Bears

Hunter Henry is the TE14 in Half-PPR scoring this season, and that's pretty much what you should be expecting from him this week against the Bears. The Bears haven't shut down tight ends in 2024, as evidenced by their ranking 21st in aFPA to the position. But the Patriots' passing game has not been particularly fertile ground for fantasy points to grow from, so it's hard to see Henry cracking the top 12 unless he can find the endzone once or twice.

NE TE Hunter Henry - Week 9 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 at Tennessee Titans

Hunter Henry managed 7.0 Half-PPR points last week and averages just a tick more than that on a per-game basis this season, good for TE14. He is getting by on volume more than anything else, and whoever lines up at quarterback for the Patriots has precious few alternatives than Henry against the Titans in Week 9. The Titans rank ninth in aFPA to tight ends this season, but Henry can be a workload-based TE2 option, and maybe someone you could consider streaming.

NE TE Hunter Henry - Week 8 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 vs New York Jets

Hunter Henry has emerged as the focal point of the Patriots passing game, which has made him more than useful in fantasy terms. Henry was the TE9 a week ago, and his 6.8 Half-PPR points per game is enough for him to sit at TE14 for the season. He doesn’t have a great matchup against the Jets who rank ninth in aFPA to tight ends, but if he continues to dominant the targets in the passing game then he should meet – and possible exceed – his projection as the TE17 in Week 8.

NE TE Hunter Henry - Week 7 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 at Jacksonville Jaguars (in London)

Hunter Henry was another Patriots pass catcher who benefitted from the switch to Drake Maye. Henry was able to post 11.6 Half-PPR points on his way to a TE8 finish in Week 6. Henry is currently the TE16 in points per game.

Henry should be able to produce another game with fantasy-relevant production against the Jaguars in Week 7. The Jaguars rank 29th in aFPA to tight ends in 2024, keeping Henry in play as a streaming option at the tight end spot this week

NE TE Hunter Henry - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 vs Houston Texans

Hunter Henry’s 5.2 Half PPR points per game average is bolstered by one very good game and four duds in 2024. No one feels good about starting him, or any pass catcher on the Patriots.

Henry might receive a slight boost if the Patriots allow Drake Maye, making his first career start, to air the ball a bit. But pinning our tight end hopes on a player with a rookie quarterback playing against a Texans team that ranks fourth in aFPA to tight ends this season seems like extreme wish casting. Still, the state of the tight end landscape means that Henry can still be viewed as a borderline TE2 for this week.

NE TE Hunter Henry - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 vs. Miami Dolphins

Hunter Henry, at one point an absolute target magnet for the Patriots this season, managed two receptions for 12 yards in Week 4, giving him 2.2 Half PPR points. Henry has three games this season with less than 3.0 Half PPR points and one with 14.9. That is beginning to look like a serious outlier. Henry was outgained by Austin Hooper in Week 4 (13-12) with Hooper also finding the endzone.

With four teams on a bye and a host of top-tier tight ends struggling, it's hard to write Henry off completely as a fantasy asset. Although the matchup this week with the Dolphins is not looking promising, with the Dolphins ranking eighth in aFPA to tight ends. Maybe Henry can sneak a touchdown this week and put himself in low-end TE1 airspace. Maybe.
