Hunter Henry at Miami — Primed for Heavy Targets in a Depleted Passing Game

Henry has caught fire as New England's top tight end, scoring 11-plus fantasy points in four straight contests while catching 11 of 12 targets over the last two weeks. With star receiver A.J. Brown ruled out alongside Romeo Doubs, Henry stands as Drake Maye's primary reliable safety valve against a vulnerable Dolphins defense.

Fantasy managers have taken notice, vaulting his start rate past 64% over recent weeks. Our weekly projection lands at 10.4 fantasy points on nearly five targets and 45 receiving yards. Given his locked-in role and scoring upside, fantasy managers should feel confident slotting him into their lineups across all formats.

Outlook Ja'Kobi Lane

Ja'Kobi Lane at BUF — Emerging Rookie Carries Upside in a High-Scoring Environment

Since returning from a wrist injury, rookie Ja'Kobi Lane has quickly carved out a starting role on the outside alongside Zay Flowers. Over his last two games, Lane has seen steady involvement with 10 total targets and seven receptions, earning critical third-down looks and growing trust in Baltimore's passing attack.

Facing Buffalo in a matchup with clear shootout potential, Lane offers intriguing upside. While his fantasy start rate remains modest at around 6%, our models project him for roughly 4 catches and 36 yards, yielding about 8.1 fantasy points. If he converts on anticipated red-zone targets, Lane serves as a sneaky deep-league flex play.
