Who Should I Start? Hunter Henry or Mark Andrews

Sunday, January 5, 12:04 PM

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry (foot) has been ruled out for the Week 18 regular-season finale against the division-rival Buffalo Bills on Sunday. Henry was limited in practice all week but will end his 2024 season a week early. With the 30-year-old officially out against a Bills defense that will be taking it easy with the No. 2 seed already locked up for the playoffs, Austin Hooper could be a sneaky DFS play this weekend with a starting workload on tap. Henry will be back with New England next year after wrapping up his fourth season with the Pats. The former second-rounder by the Los Angeles Chargers in 2016 out of Arkansas finishes with a career-high 674 receiving yards on a career-high 66 receptions (97 targets), although he only found the end zone two times in 16 games, limiting his value as a low-end TE1 option on a weekly basis in fantasy.

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said there aren't any guarantees, but "I do fully expect Mark Andrews to play for us next year. He's just too good of a player." Harbaugh said he's been in touch with Andrews this offseason and that he's in a good place after a costly fumble and a dropped two-point conversion in the team's Divisional Round loss to the Buffalo Bills in the postseason. The 29-year-old had a $4 million roster bonus kick in for the 2025 season in the middle of March, so all expectations are that the veteran tight end will return to the team this fall. Despite his rough finish to last year, Andrews did bring in a career-high 11 touchdowns in 2024 on 55 receptions (69 targets) for 673 receiving yards in 17 regular-season games (13 starts). Although he's turning 30 this year and Isaiah Likely is a threat to his overall upside, Andrews did finish as the TE1 in half-PPR scoring last season.
