Who Should I Start? Hunter Henry or JuJu Smith-Schuster

Saturday, November 1, 10:04 AM

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry is off the fantasy radar in most leagues ahead of a Week 9 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. Henry is the overall TE8 in full-PPR leagues through eight weeks, but he has been held to fewer than eight fantasy points in each of his last four games. His target share has declined steadily over the last handful of weeks as Drake Maye sends more passes in the direction of players such as Stefon Diggs, Kayshon Boutte, Mack Hollins, and Austin Hooper. Even worse than Henry's track record is his upcoming matchup. The Falcons have allowed the fewest fantasy points to tight ends in 2025. In fact, through their first seven games, Atlanta has allowed tight ends to catch a total of 12 passes for 105 yards. That comes out to 1.7 catches and 15 yards for the entire position group in a single contest. Henry can be avoided in most fantasy leagues this week.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster has seen his role in the offense decrease over the last few weeks. Smith-Schuster was playing over 60 percent of the offensive snaps through the first six games of the season. However, Smith-Schuster has taken a backseat with the return of Rashee Rice. The 28-year-old has fallen to fourth on the depth chart where there isn't as much action for him. Smith-Schuster has been held to five receptions for 64 yards and zero touchdowns over the last two games. His role in the offense figures to be minimal going forward with the Chiefs offense healthy again.
