Despite the New England Patriots’ 24-17 defeat at the hands of the Miami Dolphins, Hunter Henry emerged as a beacon of hope for fantasy managers.
Fantasy Impact: The 28-year-old tight end was targeted seven times, hauling in six receptions for 52 yards and a touchdown. His consistent performance throughout the game, including a crucial touchdown in the fourth quarter, solidified his standing as a TE2 in both weekly and season-long rankings. With 11 receptions, 108 receiving yards, and 2 touchdowns on the season, Henry is proving to be a reliable target for rookie QB Mac Jones. His play-by-play data shows a pattern of short, effective passes, with gains ranging from 6 to 13 yards. Looking ahead to Week 3, Henry and the Patriots will face off against the New York Jets, providing another opportunity for the tight end to shine. Despite the team’s loss, Henry’s performance in Week 2 should give fantasy managers confidence in his ability to produce solid numbers.
