Who Should I Start? Hunter Henry or Tyler Conklin

Sunday, November 30, 7:57 AM

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry feasted last Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals, catching seven passes for 115 yards and a touchdown. However, he might not find as much success against the New York Giants on Monday Night Football in Week 13. Henry exploded last week thanks to the Bengals being historically terrible against tight ends. The Giants' defense is much better, allowing the 12th-fewest receiving yards and 11th-fewest fantasy points to tight ends in 2025. As a result, Henry will come back down to earth and is a longshot to replicate last week's performance. The veteran tight end had seven consecutive games with single-digit fantasy points before breaking out against the Giants, so managers shouldn't be surprised if he returns to that level of production in Week 13. As it stands, Henry ranks as the overall TE9 in this week's RotoBaller fantasy football rankings.

Former New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin reached an agreement on an undisclosed one-year deal on Friday with the Los Angeles Chargers, according to his agent, Mike McCartney. Conklin heads to the AFC West after spending the last three years with the Jets, where he had 170 catches on 246 targets for 1,622 yards and seven touchdowns in 50 games (43 starts). While the 29-year-old did have a career-high four touchdowns in 16 games (15 starts) last year, he had just 51 catches and 449 yards (his lowest total since 2020) on 72 targets. The former fifth-round selection (157th overall) by the Minnesota Vikings in 2018 out of Central Michigan has the opportunity to be the Chargers' top pass-catching tight end in 2025, but he'll also be sharing playing time with Will Dissly. Dissly had a very similar 50-481-2 line to Conklin a year ago in L.A. Expect Conklin to be a touchdown-dependent TE2 in fantasy in his new home.
