Who Should I Start? Zach Ertz or TreVeyon Henderson

Sunday, October 19, 7:15 AM

According to a report from NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, tight end Zach Ertz (shoulder/calf) of the Washington Commanders should be available to play against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday. The veteran tight end is coming off one of his more productive days of the season last week, catching all six of his targets for 43 yards and a touchdown. Ertz's availability is welcome news for Washington, which is ravaged by wide receiver injuries. With Deebo Samuel (heel) and Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) already ruled out and Noah Brown (groin) still on injured reserve, Ertz should have increased volume, making him a great option for leagues that start more than one tight end.

New England Patriots running back TreVeyon Henderson has continued to share backfield reps with Rhamondre Stevenson through six weeks of the 2025 season. As a result, the rookie has mostly stayed off the fantasy radar. That could change in Week 7 as Henderson has a prime opportunity to break out against the Tennessee Titans. New England is heavily favored over Tennessee, so a positive game script could lead to plenty of touches for the running backs, particularly Henderson. The Titans are pretty bad against the run, too, allowing the most rushing touchdowns and third-most fantasy points to opposing running backs in 2025. Between game script and matchup, Week 7 could offer the perfect storm for Henderson to separate himself from Rhamondre Stevenson and break out with a huge game. He's an intriguing RB3/flex with RB2 upside this week.
