Who Should I Start? Hunter Henry or Tyler Higbee

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry is a strong candidate to bounce back against the Cleveland Browns in Week 8. Henry had a solid four catches for 33 yards last weekend, but he also saw a touchdown get vultured by fellow tight end Austin Hooper. The 30-year-old is the overall TE9 in PPR leagues this year, remaining a favorite target for Drake Maye on short and medium passes. His physicality gives him an advantage in contested situations and also allows him to fight for yards after the catch. This week, his advantage could come around the goal line. Cleveland has allowed the fourth-most touchdowns to opposing tight ends in 2025, and Henry is somewhat due after not scoring one since Week 4. He's an appealing low-end TE1 who is worth starting in a game that could be more pass-heavy than expected.

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee has worked his way back onto the fantasy radar after a quiet start to the season. The veteran has 10 targets, seven catches, 59 yards, and one touchdown over his last two games, solidifying his role as the Rams' top tight end over Colby Parkinson and Terrance Ferguson. He has capitalized on the impressive efficiency of Los Angeles' passing offense this season, led by Matthew Stafford. The quarterback and tight end have maintained a solid rapport despite the presence of several weapons on offense, including Puka Nacua (ankle) and Davante Adams. While Higbee's upside is highest with Nacua sidelined, he can still be a solid TE2 option if the star receiver returns for Week 9 against the Saints. Moving forward, Higbee will continue to warrant consideration as a top-24 tight end in fantasy football.
