Who Should I Start? Hunter Henry or Colston Loveland

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.

With Cole Kmet (back) missing the team's Week 8 loss to the Ravens, Chicago Bears rookie tight end Colston Loveland saw season highs in snap count, targets, and yards. Following the game, head coach Ben Johnson spoke glowingly about his first-round draft pick, stressing that he wished they'd gotten him the ball more. While Kmet will still have a role following his return from injury, there's a sense that Loveland is ready to take the second-half leap that has turned many a rookie into fantasy league winners. While managers will need to see more than the 38 yards that Loveland put up on Sunday before making him an every-week starter, he's worth a stash by anyone who has been streaming the position to this point.
