Who Should I Start? Hunter Henry or Mason Taylor

Monday, January 26, 4:30 PM

Offense was hard to come by in the AFC Championship game on Sunday in snowy Denver for the Broncos and New England Patriots, and tight end Hunter Henry finished with just two catches on three targets for 12 yards in the 10-7 low-scoring win over the Broncos. Henry has been a huge disappointment for fantasy managers who have used him the last two weeks in the postseason, as the 31-year-old veteran had just one grab for five yards in the Divisional Round victory over the Houston Texans. In the Wild-Card win over the Los Angeles Chargers, his former team, Henry caught three passes for 64 yards and a touchdown. Henry didn't have much of a chance to do anything against Denver's strong defense in adverse conditions, as quarterback Drake Maye threw for only 86 total yards. Henry and the Pats will have another difficult matchup against the Seahawks' defense in the Super Bowl, but he'll still be the TE with the most upside in fantasy.

New York Jets rookie tight end Mason Taylor (neck) has officially been ruled out for the Week 18 regular-season finale on Sunday against the division-rival Buffalo Bills, according to Rich Cimini of ESPN. Taylor's rookie campaign will end with four straight missed games due to a neck injury. Head coach Aaron Glenn said that Taylor didn't have a setback with his injury. "Doctor's orders," Glenn said. Jelani Woods (hamstring) will also be out for the Jets this weekend, so Jeremy Ruckert and Stone Smartt will compete for pass-catching duties at TE for the team in the final game of the season. The 21-year-old will wrap up his first year in the NFL with 44 receptions on 65 targets for 369 yards and one touchdown. Taylor wasn't really relevant in 12-team fantasy leagues, and his outlook moving forward will all depend on the Jets' plans at quarterback.
