New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry feasted last Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals, catching seven passes for 115 yards and a touchdown. However, he might not find as much success against the New York Giants on Monday Night Football in Week 13. Henry exploded last week thanks to the Bengals being historically terrible against tight ends. The Giants' defense is much better, allowing the 12th-fewest receiving yards and 11th-fewest fantasy points to tight ends in 2025. As a result, Henry will come back down to earth and is a longshot to replicate last week's performance. The veteran tight end had seven consecutive games with single-digit fantasy points before breaking out against the Giants, so managers shouldn't be surprised if he returns to that level of production in Week 13. As it stands, Henry ranks as the overall TE9 in this week's RotoBaller fantasy football rankings.

New England Patriots TE Hunter Henry (toe) fully participated in practice Saturday, Nov. 29, and is not on the injury report for Week 13.

Fantasy Spin: Henry is coming off his best game of the season and has been targeted at least six times in three of the last four games. He should be a big part of the passing game again this week and can be a No. 1 tight end in all fantasy leagues.

Fantasy Spin: Henry has been a reliable target for QB Drake Maye in 2025, so his availability has some impact. He is working towards a return, and if he is available for the team in Week 13, then he should be in your lineups.

Fantasy Spin: Henry seems to be dealing with a minor injury, but fantasy players can check on his status later in the week. He is coming off one of his best games of the season last week and should see a handful of targets if active for Week 13. He can be considered a No. 1 tight end in fantasy leagues.

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry caught seven of his 10 targets for 115 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's Week 12 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. It's no secret that Cincinnati is the worst team in the NFL when it comes to defending opposing tight ends, and Henry capitalized on this favorable matchup. The veteran entered this week as the overall TE13 in PPR leagues, but he jumped all the way into the top five on Sunday afternoon. He's unlikely to replicate this outing next Thursday against the New York Giants, but he's still worth starting as a low-end TE1 in fantasy football.

From RotoBaller

New England Patriots TE Hunter Henry ended up with seven receptions for 115 yards and a touchdown on 10 targets in Week 12 against the Cincinnati Bengals.

Fantasy Spin: Henry's production has been erratic this season. This was his first 100-yard game of the season, and first time with more than 51 receiving yards in a single game since Week 3. He has four or more receptions in three of the past four games, however, and he remains a decent low-end TE1 in most PPR leagues, while serving as a high-end TE2 in most other formats.

From TheHuddle

Patriots' TE Hunter Henry had 7 receptions for 115 yards with one touchdown in Sunday's win in Cincinnati.

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry is gearing up for an exceptionally favorable matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 12. The veteran caught four of his six targets for 45 yards last week and is one of Drake Maye's favorite targets, establishing himself as a fringe top-12 tight end in fantasy football this year. He should build on his value this week with arguably the highest ceiling he's had all year long. Cincinnati has the league's worst defense against tight ends, and it's not particularly close. They have allowed the most receiving yards, the most touchdowns, and the most fantasy points to tight ends in 2025. The gap in fantasy points allowed by the Bengals and the second-worst defense against tight ends is actually greater than the gap between the second-worst defense and the league median. Meanwhile, Cincy's 12 touchdowns allowed to tight ends are five more than the next-highest. Time and time again, tight ends have feasted against the Bengals. Now, Henry will have a terrific opportunity to benefit from a matchup against this susceptible defense. He ranks as the overall TE7 in this week's RotoBaller fantasy rankings.

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry has momentum on his side ahead of Sunday's favorable matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 12. Henry bounced back from a Week 10 dud by catching four of his six targets for 45 yards in Week 11. He is one of Drake Maye's favorite targets, establishing himself as a fringe top-12 tight end in fantasy football. Henry is an intriguing option in the Patriots' offense, but his ceiling has arguably never been higher than it is this week against the Bengals. Cincinnati has the league's worst defense against tight ends, and it's not particularly close. They have allowed the most receiving yards, the most touchdowns, and the most fantasy points to tight ends in 2025. The gap in fantasy points allowed by the Bengals and the second-worst defense against tight ends is actually greater than the gap between the second-worst defense and the league median. Meanwhile, Cincy's 12 touchdowns allowed to tight ends are five more than the next-highest. Time and time again, tight ends have feasted against the Bengals. Now, it's Henry's turn. He ranks as a mid-to-high TE1 with an extremely favorable matchup on tap.

From FantasyLife

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry is the TE12 in half-PPR scoring through 11 weeks with 34 catches for 422 yards and four touchdowns on 53 targets. He has not scored in the last three games and has typically been a hit-or-miss TE streamer in fantasy in his career. However, the 30-year-old did have a bounce-back game in last Thursday night's win over the New York Jets, with four catches on six targets for 45 yards. The week before, he disappointed with just one catch for nine yards in the win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Henry will probably remain inconsistent through the end of the year for fantasy purposes, but the upside is real in a Patriots offense that has shown a big jump in quarterback Drake Maye's second season. If you're looking for a TE to stream in Week 12, Henry is an excellent option, as the Bengals defense allows the most fantasy points per game to the position this year.

From RotoBaller

New England Patriots TE Hunter Henry had four receptions for 45 yards during the team's Week 11 victory over the New York Jets. He was targeted six times.

Fantasy Spin: Henry finished second to Stefon Diggs in targets, but the final numbers were decent at best, continuing a trend that started when the calendar turned to October. Back in September, Henry averaged 3.75 receptions, 51 yards, and 0.75 TDs per game. In seven games since, those numbers fall to 2.7 catches, 31 yards, and 0.15 TDs. At this stage, Henry is a low-end TE2 if you're looking to roster a second tight end. Nothing more.

From TheHuddle

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry is a solid fantasy football starter in Week 11 against the New York Jets. Henry only had one catch last week, but he has been targeted 10 times over the last two games and is the overall TE15 in PPR leagues this year. This Thursday night, he should see increased volume with backup tight end Austin Hooper (concussion) sidelined. Hooper's absence leaves Henry as the Patriots' only healthy tight end on gameday, excluding fullback/tight end Jack Westover, who has one target and zero catches this year. Therefore, Henry, who has already been playing more than three-quarters of the snaps and leading his position group in targets, should be even more involved against the Jets. In addition to Hooper's absence, Henry stands to benefit from a very favorable matchup, as the Jets have allowed the second-most touchdowns to tight ends in 2025. Managers should view the 30-year-old as a top-12 tight end in fantasy football this week.

New England Patriots TE Hunter Henry ended up with just a single 9-yard reception on four targets in Week 10 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Fantasy Spin: Henry has shown TE1 fantasy ability at times, he also has been limited to just one catch and under 10 yards in two of his past three games. He has managed 33 or fewer yards in four of the past five games, too. Treat him more as a TE2 in fantasy leagues of 12 or more teams heading into Week 11 against the New York Jets on Thursday.
