Hunter Henry a Scoring Threat in Favorable Matchup Against Browns

Saturday, October 25, 9:47 AM

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry is a strong candidate to bounce back against the Cleveland Browns in Week 8. Henry had a solid four catches for 33 yards last weekend, but he also saw a touchdown get vultured by fellow tight end Austin Hooper. The 30-year-old is the overall TE9 in PPR leagues this year, remaining a favorite target for Drake Maye on short and medium passes. His physicality gives him an advantage in contested situations and also allows him to fight for yards after the catch. This week, his advantage could come around the goal line. Cleveland has allowed the fourth-most touchdowns to opposing tight ends in 2025, and Henry is somewhat due after not scoring one since Week 4. He's an appealing low-end TE1 who is worth starting in a game that could be more pass-heavy than expected.

Brenton Strange Doesn't Need Surgery, Sidelined at Least Five Weeks

Friday, October 10, 1:28 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Brenton Strange (hip, quadriceps), who leads the team in catches through five weeks, is dealing with a hip and quad injury that includes a ligament tear, sources tell Jordan Schultz of FOX Sports. Strange suffered the injury in the Monday night win over the Kansas City Chiefs. Schultz said it's his understanding that Strange doesn't need surgery, but he will be out at least five weeks. It could have been worse, but Jacksonville is going to be without its top TE for a while. The 24-year-old was placed on Injured Reserve earlier this week, which means he'll be out at least four games. Strange was having a nice start to the year before his injury, catching 20 passes for 204 yards, although he hadn't found the end zone. In his absence, the Jags will look to both Hunter Long and Johnny Mundt for production at the TE position. Fantasy managers should be able to find better TE2 streamers elsewhere.
