Henry recorded four receptions on nine targets for 39 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-21 loss to the Bills. Henry led the team with nine targets, though he was outgained by both Austin Hooper and Kayshon Boutte. His most impactful plays came on a 12-yard gain toward the close of the first quarter and on a nine-yard touchdown catch with just over a minute remaining in the contest. It was his first trip to the end zone since Week 6 and only his second score of the campaign. Henry's production has fluctuated in recent weeks, though he has at least eight targets in our of his last five games.
Henry brought in all four of his targets for 25 yards in Sunday's 30-17 loss to the Cardinals. Henry finished first on the Patriots in receptions and second in targets Sunday, but he ranked fourth in receiving yards in a collective poor offensive showing by New England. The veteran tight end did set a new career high in receptions (64), and he is just 17 yards shy of his current best of 653 receiving yards set back in 2019. Henry's lack of touchdowns (one) holds him back from being a reliable option in fantasy ahead of next Sunday's tilt against Buffalo.
Henry caught seven of nine targets for 75 yards in Sunday's 25-24 loss to the Colts. The veteran tight end once again led the Patriots in catches, targets and receiving yards, but Henry got denied a bigger performance when Austin Hooper caught Drake Maye's only TD of the day in the second quarter instead. Henry is on the verge of a career-best campaign, needing just three more catches and 43 more yards to set new personal bests in those categories. He'll aim for those marks on the other side of New England's Week 14 bye.
Henry, who was on the field for 57 of a possible 69 snaps on offense in Sunday's 34-15 loss to the Dolphins, per Mike Reiss of ESPN.com, caught five of his team-high eight targets for 44 yards in the contest. Fellow tight end Austin Hooper, who logged 26 snaps in the game, also made his mark Sunday by catching all four of his targets for 59 yards and a TD. Given his steady workload in the Patriots offense, Henry retains weekly utility from a fantasy perspective, but it's worth noting that his only TD this season occurred back in Week 6.
Henry caught six of nine targets for 63 yards in Sunday's 28-22 loss to the Rams. Henry led the Patriots in targets and catches while finishing seven yards shy of Kendrick Bourne's team-leading total. The veteran tight end has been the most reliable target for rookie Patriots quarterback Drake Maye, due in large part to New England's lack of talent at wide receiver. Henry has averaged 6.8 targets in the first six starts of Maye's career heading into a Week 12 trip to Miami.
Henry (foot) practiced fully Thursday. Henry -- who was on the field for 57 of the Patriots' 64 snaps on offense in this past weekend's 19-3 win over the Bears -- was limited Wednesday, but his full participation a day later paves the way for the tight end to face the Rams on Sunday. Though he's coming off a one-catch, 14-yard effort versus Chicago, Henry is a Week 11 bounce-back candidate, given his steady playing time in New England's offense, which overall has resulted in a 40-428-1 line on 57 targets over the course of 10 games to date.
Henry (foot) was limited at practice Wednesday, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports. Henry was on the field 57 of a possible 64 snaps on offense in Sunday's 19-3 win over the Bears, so it's possible that his limitations Wednesday were maintenance-related. Thursday's injury report will add further context with regard to his Week 11 status, but so far there's been nothing to suggest that the tight end is in danger of missing this weekend's contest against the Rams.
Henry, who logged 57 of a possible 64 snaps on offense in Sunday's 19-3 win over the Bears, per Mike Reiss of ESPN.com, caught one of his four targets in the contest for 14 yards. With the Patriots relying heavily on two-TE sets Sunday, Henry's teammate Austin Hooper was on the field for a season-high 41 snaps en route to catching three of his four targets for 64 yards. Given that he continues to see steady snaps in New England's Drake Maye-helmed offense, Henry -- who racked up 20 catches over his previous three outings -- is a bounce-back candidate in Week 11 versus the Rams.
Henry recorded seven receptions on eight targets for 56 yards in Sunday's 20-17 overtime loss to the Titans. Henry remained a favorite target of Drake Maye and has at least five receptions in each of Maye's three starts. Henry remained primarily a short-area option, though four of his catches went for at least 10 yards. While Henry won't match the explosiveness of elite fantasy tight ends, he has a key role in the New England offense and should remain a reliable contributor moving forward.
