Who Should I Start? Hunter Henry or Noah Fant

Friday, January 23, 8:54 PM

Despite just one catch for five yards in the Divisional Round victory over the Houston Texans last weekend, New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry has the most upside at the position going into the AFC Championship on Sunday against the Denver Broncos. Of the remaining tight ends playing this weekend, Henry was by far the most productive for fantasy managers during the 2025 regular season, catching 60 of his 87 targets for 768 yards and seven touchdowns. Through two postseason games, he has four grabs on seven targets for 69 yards and one touchdown. The 31-year-old veteran is a good bet to bounce back from his stinker last weekend, and he'll be facing off against a Broncos defense that was middle of the pack in terms of half-PPR points allowed per game to tight ends. Henry should be a strong safety blanket for quarterback Drake Maye in hostile territory.

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Noah Fant (ankle) is officially active on Sunday to face the visiting Arizona Cardinals in Week 17. Fant will return to action this weekend in a meaningless game after missing last week's blowout win over the Miami Dolphins due to an ankle injury. Even in a plus matchup against the Cardinals, fantasy managers should have much better TE2 streaming options to choose from in Week 17, even in deeper leagues. The 28-year-old Fant just won't have enough opportunities while continuing to work behind Mike Gesicki at the position in Cincy. Fant has a total of 33 catches for 283 yards and three touchdowns on 39 targets in 13 games (six starts) in his first year with the Bengals. He hasn't had more than one catch in a game since Nov. 16, and he has not gone over 44 receiving yards in a single contest in 2025.
