Hunter Henry Fantasy

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Hunter Henry may never surpass Antonio Gates as the greatest tight end in franchise history, but he may be remembered for being the recipient of Philip Rivers' final touchdown pass with the team. Henry brought in the eight-yard sling from Rivers late in the fourth quarter of Sunday's contest, putting LA within striking distance of the Chiefs. Unfortunately, the team would fall short. Henry would finish with 42 receiving yards on five catches, and the touchdown bumped him up to five on the season. If he can stay healthy, Henry could end up being one of the top tight ends in the game next season.

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Hunter Henry is completely overshadowed this week due to all the other storylines racing around the Chargers locker room, but he could be one of the team's biggest players. When Henry returned from his injury earlier this season, he went on a tear where he recorded 60+ receiving yards or a touchdown in five of six games in a row. Since then, he's been relegated to being an afterthought, recording just one touchdown and zero games with 50 or more receiving yards. The last of those big games was against the Chiefs. Henry could easily be LA's secret weapon that sees the touchdown opportunities while everyone else focuses on the guys shooting for history this week. Even with their defensive improvement, tight ends continue to be KC's defensive kryptonite.

Facing a fantastic matchup, Los Angeles Chargers tight end Hunter Henry failed to capitalize. Henry was targeted seven times and caught five of the passes, but he was only able to tally 45 yards and no scores. The 9.0 YPC was Henry's third-worst of the season, and for some reason, a Raiders secondary who has failed to stop almost anyone absolutely stymied the Chargers passing game, especially at the tight end position, once again. Henry is still one of the premier tight ends in the game, but the drop in performance over the last few weeks has just been baffling. Henry's best game in the last six weeks was against the Chiefs a month ago, so hopefully, he can pick it up one more time and finish the season on a high note.
