Who Should I Start? Hunter Henry or Dawson Knox

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry profiles as one of the better tight end options for Week 2. In the season-opening loss to Las Vegas, Henry caught four of eight targets for 66 yards, leading the team in looks. His chemistry with rookie quarterback Drake Maye is well established, as Henry has seen 8+ targets in five of Maye's last seven starts. Usage was also encouraging, as Henry played 93% of the snaps in Week 1, his second-highest rate in a game since 2022. He now draws a favorable matchup against Miami, which just allowed Colts rookie tight end Tyler Warren to erupt in Week 1. Given his target volume and snap share, Henry enters Week 2 as a solid low-end TE1 and remains Maye's most reliable pass-catching option.

Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox (hamstring) returned to the practice field on Thursday. Knox landed on the active/non-football injury list to begin training camp with a hamstring injury but was activated by the team on Sunday. In 16 games last season, Knox caught 22 passes for 311 yards and one touchdown. The 28-year-old is a key piece for a Buffalo offense that likes to feature multiple-tight end formations, but Knox is clearly behind fellow tight end Dalton Kincaid as a receiver. Unless there's an injury to Kincaid, Knox is unlikely to factor in fantasy during the 2025 season.
