Who Should I Start? Hunter Henry or DeVonta Smith

Friday, December 27, 1:03 AM

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry remains a reliable fantasy option heading into Saturday's Week 17 matchup against his old team, the Los Angeles Chargers. Henry has been quite productive in his age-30 season, ranking as the overall TE9 ever since Drake Maye took over as the starting quarterback in Week 6. Even as he shares some opportunities with Austin Hooper, Henry has remained a startable tight end in most fantasy leagues. That trend should continue this week as he's coming off an impressive four-catch, 39-yard, and one-touchdown showing against the Buffalo Bills. Henry ranks as a low-end TE1 for this week's revenge game, despite Los Angeles surrendering the fourth-fewest fantasy points to opposing tight ends.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith caught six of his seven targets for 120 yards and two touchdowns in their decisive victory against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday afternoon. Smith left the game for a brief window with a wrist injury. However, that did not seem to alter his performance as he paced all Philadelphia pass catchers in yards and receptions. He caught his first score of the game from Kenny Pickett on a 22-yard pass. He found the end zone again, this time on a 25-yard strike from Tanner McKee. His longest reception of the afternoon went for 49 yards. Despite catching passes from a multiple backup quarterbacks, Smith showcased his elite upside with his first multi-touchdown performance of the season. Smith will look to stay hot in a divisional tilt in Week 18 against the New York Giants.
