Hunter Henry Status

rotoWire
Henry and free-agent addition Mike Gesicki are in line to head the Patriots' tight end corps this coming season, Mike Reiss of ESPN reports.

What it means:

Since signing a three-year deal with New England in March of 2021, Henry had been working in a time-share with Jonnu Smith. With Smith having recently been traded to the Falcons, however, the Patriots elected to bolster their tight end corps by inking Gesicki to a one-year pact worth up to $9 million. In that context Henry will continue to share snaps and targets in 2023, and given Gesicki's upside as a pass-catcher Henry's week-to-week volume figures to fluctuate this season when both players are available. In 2022, Henry recorded 41 catches on 59 targets for 509 yards and two touchdowns (down from nine scores in 2021) in 17 games. Looking ahead, the 2016 second-rounder's fantasy utility while working in tandem with Gesicki could end up hinging on his level of red zone usage.

Henry finished up the 2022 season with 41 catches on 59 targets for 509 yards and two touchdowns in 17 games.

What it means:

For the second consecutive season, Henry -- who missed his share of time during his five-year stint with the Chargers -- managed to play all of his team's games. From a volume standpoint, the 2016 second-rounder's production took a modest dip from the 50 catches for 603 yards on 75 targets he logged in 2021, but it was Henry's drop from nine to two TDs that resulted in his overall fantasy utility taking a hit in 2022. The 28-year-old's contract with the Patriots runs through next season, and in 2023 Henry will once again be in line work in a tight end time-share with Jonnu Smith, who is signed with the team through 2024.
rotoWire
Henry (knee) secured five of six targets for 52 yards in the Patriots' 23-21 win over the Dolphins on Sunday.

What it means:

With position mate Jonnu Smith (concussion) sidelined, Henry saw an uptick in volume and made good use of it. The veteran tight end's reception and receiving yardage totals were both second on the team for the afternoon, and his catch tally was a season high as well. Henry could be in for another expanded role in a critical Week 18 road matchup against the Bills, especially if Smith remains out of action.
rotoWire
Henry (knee) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Dolphins.

What it means:

With fellow tight end Jonnu Smith (concussion) inactive Sunday, Henry has an opportunity to log added snaps and targets versus Miami. In that context, the 2016 second-rounder -- who has put up a 30/415/2 stat line in 15 games thus far -- is in a position to see enough volume to merit fantasy lineup consideration in Week 17.

Patriots' Hunter Henry (knee) active for Week 17

What it means:

The New England Patriots listed Hunter Henry (knee) as active for the team's Week 17 game against the Miami Dolphins. Henry was knocked out of the Patriots' Week 16 game after colliding with fellow tight end Jonnu Smith, but will suit up today as the Pats take on the Dolphins. Henry has a $5,200 salary on FanDuel and is projected to score 4.5 fantasy points against the Dolphins.

Patriots' Hunter Henry (knee) 'OK to play' in Week 17

What it means:

ESPN's Dan Graziano reports that New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry (knee) is "OK to play" for the team's Week 17 game against the Miami Dolphins. Henry suffered a knee injury in Week 16 when he collided with teammate Jonnu Smith on a crossing route. He was unable to return to that game, but it looks like he'll be back on the field for an important divisional matchup against the Dolphins today. Henry has a $5,200 salary on FanDuel and is projected to score 4.5 fantasy points against Miami.
