Hunter Henry News
Sunday, May 3, 11:37 AM
New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry was a steady contributor in 2025, hauling in 60 receptions for 768 yards and seven touchdowns on 87 targets across 17 games. The veteran established excellent red zone chemistry with Patriots quarterback Drake Maye and led New England in touchdown catches. However, Henry's long-term future with the Patriots may be in question after New England used a third-round pick on Notre Dame tight end Eli Raridon in the 2026 NFL Draft. While Henry still projects to open the upcoming year atop the Patriots' tight end depth chart, 2026 will be his age-32 season and is also the final season on his current contract. In dynasty formats, Henry's value is in question following the NFL Draft.

George Kittle News
Wednesday, May 27, 1:21 PM
Despite tearing his Achilles tendon in the postseason back in January, San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (Achilles) is holding out hope that he'll be ready for the Week 1 regular-season opener in Australia against the division-rival Los Angeles Rams, according to Cameron DaSilva of Rams Wire. Making it more difficult for Kittle is the fact that the team will have to leave much earlier than they would for a regular road game. Kittle admitted it will be a "little bit difficult" to be active for Week 1 due to the flight to Australia. Though the 32-year-old seven-time Pro Bowler only played in 11 regular-season games in 2025 due to injuries, he still caught 57 passes for 628 yards and seven touchdowns to finish as a top-15 TE in half-PPR fantasy scoring. Kittle's Achilles tear was considered a best-case scenario, but it doesn't mean he won't miss a couple of weeks early on in 2026. For that reason and because of ongoing durability questions, Kittle has fallen outside of RotoBaller's top-10 fantasy TEs going into the upcoming season.
