New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry didn't wow anyone with his production in the Week 1 loss to the Las Vegas Raiders, but what did stand out was that he played 93 percent of the offensive snaps and was tied for the team lead in targets with Kayshon Boutte with eight. Henry hauled in four of his eight targets for 66 yards, which was second on the team behind Boutte's 103 receiving yards. If you are already streaming tight ends going into Week 2 or just lost George Kittle (hamstring) for three to five weeks, Hunter is absolutely worth looking at on the waiver wire going into a Week 2 meeting against a Miami Dolphins defense that just gave up 33 points to Daniel Jones and the Indianapolis Colts. Austin Hooper was only on the field for 23 snaps and caught one pass for 10 yards. Henry is currently rostered in 59 percent of Yahoo leagues.

Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku will make his 2025 debut against the Cincinnati Bengals at home in Week 1. With Joe Flacco back under center after a stint with the team in 2023, Njoku is primed to get off to a hot start this season. Flacco and Njoku showed excellent chemistry together two years ago, combining for 30 receptions, 390 yards, and four touchdowns in five games together. The Bengals were the worst team in the league against tight ends last season as they allowed the most fantasy points per game to the position. Njoku is a top-six fantasy tight end heading into Week 1.
