Hunter Henry Practicing at OTAs

Thursday, May 29, 1:21 PM

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry (foot) is in attendance and taking part in voluntary organized team activities this week, according to ESPN's Mike Reiss. Henry was not limited in any capacity during Wednesday's session despite missing the Week 18 regular-season finale last year due to a foot injury. The 30-year-old former second-round pick (35th overall) by the Los Angeles Chargers in 2016 out of Arkansas set career-highs in catches (66), targets (97) and receiving yards (674) while scoring just twice in 16 starts for the Patriots in his fourth year with the team in 2024. Austin Hooper, who caught 45 passes a year ago, remains in town, but Henry is the team's unquestioned top pass-catching tight end, and he has strong chemistry with second-year quarterback Drake Maye. Henry should find the end more in 2025, but the addition of receiver Stefon Diggs will take away valuable targets.

Isaiah Likely Out a Few Weeks With Ankle Injury

Tuesday, July 29, 3:49 PM

Baltimore Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely (ankle) had to be carted off the field during Tuesday's practice after rolling his ankle. Head coach John Harbaugh said afterward that Likely will miss a few weeks, adding that he'll undergo an MRI and the Ravens will have more information Tuesday. This is a notable preseason blow to the Super Bowl contenders' offense, as Likely has posted solid production since entering the NFL in 2022 and has gained importance in their Lamar Jackson-led passing attack. Likely set new career highs in catches (42), yards (477), and touchdowns (six) in 16 games last season for the AFC North champions. The presence of fellow tight end Mark Andrews lowers Likely's ceiling from a fantasy standpoint, but he's still an integral part of the Ravens' offense.
