Should I Start Hunter Henry?

Saturday, October 3, 1:04 PM

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry belongs on the bench or waiver wire in most fantasy leagues ahead of Week 4 against the Buffalo Bills. The 31-year-old has seven catches through three games, including just one catch on a season-low 71% snap share last Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Patriots' passing attack has really struggled under Drake Maye this year, and Henry is no exception. We anticipate that trend to continue in Week 4, especially against a Bills defense that has allowed the ninth-fewest fantasy points to tight ends in 2026. Henry has historically produced well against the Bills in particular, but we'd advise managers to place more stock in his recent struggles than previous years' performances against specific teams. Henry has fallen to TE19 in RotoBaller's latest fantasy football rankings in Week 4, and you could make a case that he should drop even more below players like Jake Ferguson, Kyle Pitts Sr., Mike Gesicki, and A.J. Barner.
