Who Should I Start? Hunter Henry or Trey McBride

Thursday, November 13, 12:47 AM

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry is a solid fantasy football starter in Week 11 against the New York Jets. Henry only had one catch last week, but he has been targeted 10 times over the last two games and is the overall TE15 in PPR leagues this year. This Thursday night, he should see increased volume with backup tight end Austin Hooper (concussion) sidelined. Hooper's absence leaves Henry as the Patriots' only healthy tight end on gameday, excluding fullback/tight end Jack Westover, who has one target and zero catches this year. Therefore, Henry, who has already been playing more than three-quarters of the snaps and leading his position group in targets, should be even more involved against the Jets. In addition to Hooper's absence, Henry stands to benefit from a very favorable matchup, as the Jets have allowed the second-most touchdowns to tight ends in 2025. Managers should view the 30-year-old as a top-12 tight end in fantasy football this week.

Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride had his best performance of the season during Sunday's game against the Seattle Seahawks. McBride carried a three-game touchdown streak into this contest, which was in jeopardy until he scored mid-way through the third quarter. Overall, McBride finished with nine receptions on 15 targets for 127 yards and one score in the blowout loss. McBride has seen his fantasy value quickly rise with Jacoby Brissett under center. The Cardinals figure to ride with Brissett for the rest of the season, which is good news for McBride fantasy managers. He'll carry his four-game touchdown streak into the Week 11 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers.
