Hunter Henry DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry caught four of his nine targets for 39 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's Week 16 loss to the Buffalo Bills. The veteran tight end finished as Drake Maye's top target, playing 83.6 percent of the offensive snaps along the way, but he hauled in fewer than half of the passes thrown his way. On a positive note, Henry did find the end zone, breaking an eight-game scoreless streak. He posted double-digit fantasy points (PPR) for the seventh time this season and will continue to rank as a low-end TE1 when he faces his old team, the Los Angeles Chargers, next Sunday in New England.

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry is coming off his worst fantasy performance since Week 10 and is looking to bounce back this Sunday against the Buffalo Bills. Henry tallied just 25 yards in that Week 15 showing, but he still ranks as the overall TE11 this year and has formed a very strong rapport with rookie quarterback Drake Maye. Unfortunately for Henry, the Bills' defense has been solid against opposing tight ends, allowing the ninth-fewest catches, sixth-fewest receptions, and sixth-fewest fantasy points to the position in 2024. With that in mind, Henry will drop to the high-end TE2 tier this Sunday.

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry caught all four of his targets for 25 yards during Sunday's Week 15 loss to the Arizona Cardinals. Henry has been the most productive pass-catcher in the Patriots' offense, and while he did lead the team in receptions on Sunday, his yardage total was lower than expected. This was Henry's worst fantasy performance since Week 10 and just his second-worst showing since Drake Maye took over as the starting quarterback. He also finished with fewer fantasy points than Austin Hooper for the third time in New England's last five games. Fantasy managers should view Henry as a fringe top-12 fantasy option against the Buffalo Bills in Week 16, and he's no longer a must-start option.

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry has returned from the bye week and is a relevant fantasy option once again for Week 15 against the Arizona Cardinals. Henry has been the overall TE10 since Drake Maye took over at quarterback. The veteran has emerged as one of Maye's favorite targets, and that's a valuable connection to have in an offense that must throw the football to stay competitive in games. This week, Henry faces the Cardinals, who have allowed the fifth-fewest touchdowns to opposing tight ends in 2024. They've also allowed the sixth-fewest fantasy points to the position, but their ability to reduce touchdown opportunities is largely baked into that total. A player like Henry, who has been a top-12 fantasy tight end despite scoring just one touchdown this season, should continue to be a dependable option in Week 15.

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry caught seven of his nine targets for 75 yards during Sunday's Week 13 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. Although Henry's streak without a touchdown was extended to seven games on Sunday, the veteran was still highly productive in a matchup against a Colts defense that has struggled to defend tight ends. The 29-year-old actually had a touchdown vultured by fellow tight end Austin Hooper, but he still had a productive fantasy performance of his own by turning in his fifth double-digit points total over the last eight weeks. Henry now ranks as the overall TE10 in the span since Drake Maye took over as the Patriots' starting quarterback in Week 6. He should be started in most leagues on the other side of New England's Week 14 bye.
