Bottom Line

Coming off a down 2022, Henry will look to rebound in a contract season.

New England’s offense looks better, thanks in large part to the addition of OC Bill O’Brien. Henry’s track record shows he can be a TE1 spot-starter, but you’re ultimately targeting him as a waiver wire add outside of deep leagues or best ball.

What We Learned Last Year
  • Henry’s numbers regressed across the board. His 59 targets, 41 catches, 509 yards, and two TDs last year all marked his fewest since his 2016 rookie year.
  • He played a full slate of games for the first time in his career.
  • Henry still saw his target share drop from 14.3% (2021) to 11.3% (2022).
  • Unsurprisingly, Henry wasn’t a major fantasy factor. He finished as a top-12 TE only three times.
  • Among 27 TEs with 50+ targets, Henry sat 13th in catch rate, fourth in yards per catch, and 11th in yards after catch per reception. So it wasn't like Henry showed he's washed up at 28.
  • Henry wasn’t lifted up by a Pats offense that ranked 22nd in pass attempts, 21st in passing yards, and 28th in red zone attempts per game.
  • Mac Jones regressed in several key metrics last year (completion rate, on-target rate, yards per attempt, TD rate).
What to Expect in 2023
  • The Pats moved on from No. 2 TE Jonnu Smith, who saw only 38 targets in 14 games.
  • New England invested in free agent TE Mike Gesicki with a one-year deal ($3.5 million guaranteed). He’s an upgrade on Smith – but not a lock for a major role.
  • In 2022, Gesicki set four-year lows in routes run (379), targets (52), catches (32), and yards (362).
  • Gesicki is more receiver than blocker and has experience playing slot and out wide. He’s not a threat to steal serious in-line snaps from Henry.
  • New England’s No. 1 target projects as JuJu Smith-Schuster, who joined the club on a 3-year deal that includes $16 million guaranteed.
  • New OC Bill O’Brien arrives as an upgrade on a ‘22 staff that featured Matt Patricia in a key offensive role.
  • New England will look for more from third-year QB Mac Jones. We see a rebound given the upgrade at OC.

Hunter Henry, TE NE

Hunter Henry only Pat with more than two catches

Patriots TE Hunter Henry led the team with 4 receptions and 51 receiving yards in Sunday's beatdown at the hands of the Cowboys. He was the only New England player to catch more than two passes in the game. WR JuJu Smith-Schuster matched Henry's 5 targets for the team lead. WR DeVante Parker followed with 4. Five others tallied 3 targets apiece. New England gets another tough matchup with New Orleans in Week 5 but a friendlier spot at Vegas the following week.

Patriots WR Kendrick Bourne recorded 4 catches on 5 targets for 46 yards in Week 3’s win vs. the Jets. Both WR DeVante Parker and TE Hunter Henry had some involvement but ultimately flopped with just 2 catches apiece. Helping no one in fantasy, TE Pharaoh Brown led the team in receiving with 71 yards on 2 catches. One of those catches from Brown was the only offensive TD scored by New England. This one was just one of those unlucky games in crummy weather where the Pats didn’t need to throw a ton to pull out the W. Fantasy managers should hope for better results from these receivers next week vs. the Cowboys.

Dynasty Write-up
Henry’s fantasy value tanked last year -- right alongside the play of Mac Jones. We'll see if a rebound is in store over the short term now that New England has an actual offensive coordinator. Henry, 28, is set to enter a contract season with new arrival Mike Gesicki.
