Hunter Henry Remains Top Target for Drake Maye

Friday, September 12, 9:33 PM

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.

Evan Engram's Usage Too Concerning to Trust Against Colts

Saturday, September 13, 10:42 AM

Denver Broncos tight end Evan Engram (calf) is expected to suit up for Week 2 against the Indianapolis Colts after leaving the opener with a calf contusion. Engram's usage before the injury was concerning, as he played just 44% of the snaps overall and was on the field for only 56% of Denver's passing plays. Adam Trautman, the more experienced blocker, was featured more heavily in Sean Payton's game plan. The much-hyped "Joker role" for Engram in Payton's offense appears overstated based on Week 1 usage. While the Colts were vulnerable to tight ends in 2024, allowing the fifth-most fantasy points to the position, Engram's limited playing time keeps him off the fantasy radar for now.
