Who Should I Start? Hunter Henry or Tyler Warren

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.

Indianapolis Colts rookie tight end Tyler Warren (toe) was listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's injury report due to a toe injury. Fantasy managers should keep a close eye on his status during the week, as he could be dealing with a serious injury. Through his first two games in the NFL, the former Penn State standout has enjoyed an outstanding start to his career. Warren has emerged as a key component of the Indianapolis offense, as he has caught 11 of his 16 targets for 155 yards. With Daniel Jones enjoying a career resurgence in Indianapolis, Warren should continue to hold high-end TE1 value for the foreseeable future. If Warren were to sit out in Week 3 when the Colts face the Tennessee Titans, wide receivers Michael Pittman Jr., Alec Pierce, and Josh Downs should see an increased target share.
