Hunter Henry Should Remain a Non-Factor in Week 4

Saturday, October 3, 1:04 PM

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry belongs on the bench or waiver wire in most fantasy leagues ahead of Week 4 against the Buffalo Bills. The 31-year-old has seven catches through three games, including just one catch on a season-low 71% snap share last Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Patriots' passing attack has really struggled under Drake Maye this year, and Henry is no exception. We anticipate that trend to continue in Week 4, especially against a Bills defense that has allowed the ninth-fewest fantasy points to tight ends in 2026. Henry has historically produced well against the Bills in particular, but we'd advise managers to place more stock in his recent struggles than previous years' performances against specific teams. Henry has fallen to TE19 in RotoBaller's latest fantasy football rankings in Week 4, and you could make a case that he should drop even more below players like Jake Ferguson, Kyle Pitts Sr., Mike Gesicki, and A.J. Barner.

Chig Okonkwo in TE2 Territory for Week 4 Return Against Colts

Saturday, October 3, 8:19 AM

Washington Commanders tight end Chig Okonkwo will make his return in Week 4 against the Indianapolis Colts after missing the previous two games with a hamstring injury. Okonkwo played 55.7% of the snaps and caught two of three targets for 16 yards before exiting. The 27-year-old tight end could serve as Washington's No. 2 target in the passing game behind Stefon Diggs with Terry McLaurin (hamstring) not expected to play. Okonkwo could be in line for a productive day against a Colts defense that has allowed the ninth most fantasy points per game (10.8) and the fifth most receptions (20) to opposing tight ends so far this season. Okonkwo ranks as RotoBaller's TE25 in PPR formats for Week 4.
