Who Should I Start? Hunter Henry or Terrance Ferguson

Tuesday, September 16, 3:11 AM

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry caught just one of his three targets for nine receiving yards during Sunday's Week 2 win over the Miami Dolphins. The 30-year-old was a central part of the offensive attack during the season opener, but his volume and usage both declined this past weekend. He finished the divisional battle with an 85 percent share, which is still solid despite representing a reduction from the week prior. Henry is a reliable outlet for Drake Maye, but that doesn't get rid of the fact that the veteran tight end faces competition for targets from players like Stefon Diggs, Kayshon Boutte, DeMario Douglas, and Austin Hooper. Henry should be viewed as a mid-range TE2 heading into Week 3 against the Steelers.

The Los Angeles Rams' second-round rookie, Terrance Ferguson, played a few snaps on Sunday and was not targeted against the Tennessee Titans after not seeing the field in Week 1 against the Houston Texans. Ferguson is listed second on the depth chart behind Tyler Higbee, with Colby Parkinson (shoulder) dealing with an injury. At this time, it's unclear what Ferguson's role will be in the offense, as he has not gotten many opportunities in the offense to this point. In his career with the Oregon Ducks, he had 134 receptions, 16 receiving touchdowns, and 1,537 career receiving yards. In his senior year in 2024, he recorded 43 catches for 591 yards and three touchdowns. He set school records for tight ends in career receptions and receiving touchdowns.
