Hunter Henry is backed at 54% probability for 3+ receptions in Week 1. Jason Logan highlights that Henry was second in targets last season and is rated No. 4 by PFF versus zone coverage in 2025. Seattle's defense ran zone coverage at the second-highest rate in 2025 and allowed the fifth-most receptions to tight ends last year, a product of their pass rush forcing checkdowns. Henry is one of the best zone-busting tight ends in the NFL, making this a favorable matchup.

Henry at $7,600 occupies an attractive mid-tier pricing range and is the most appealing option in that salary band. While target competition from A.J. Brown and Romeo Doubs may reduce overall volume ceiling, Henry should maintain a significant red-zone role with a 17% end-zone target share in 2025. As 3.5-point road underdogs, the Patriots project to pass more, and Henry's $600 discount versus Romeo Doubs makes him the preferred tight end.

Hunter Henry is identified as a value pick at 23¢ anytime touchdown odds for Week 1 against Seattle. The source cites his 2025 season production of seven touchdown passes, his role as New England's starting tight end, and Seattle's safety depth issues (Ty Okada ruled out, Nick Emmanwori questionable) as factors supporting his scoring opportunity. With the Patriots projected to score 21 points, Henry's established scoring role at modest price is favored despite target competition from A.J. Brown and Romeo Doubs.

Hunter Henry was TE12 in fantasy points per game last year with a career-high 768 receiving yards and seven receiving touchdowns (second-most in a season). However, Derek Brown expects Henry to take a step back in the target pecking order in New England this season with A.J. Brown and Romeo Doubs on the depth chart. Against Seattle's two-high coverage (sixth-highest rate last year), Henry posted only a 16% target-per-route-run rate and 1.08 yards per route run. Seattle allowed tight ends the 14th-fewest yards per target and ranked 15th in fantasy points per opportunity, making Henry an easy sit for Week 1.

Hunter Henry is projected to exceed 3 receptions in Week 1 against Seattle; the source rates this prop at 54% probability. Henry was second in targets for the Patriots last season and is rated No. 4 by PFF versus zone coverage in 2025. Seattle's defense ranked No. 2 in zone usage in 2025 and allowed the fifth-most receptions to tight ends last season, a product of their pass rush forcing checkdowns. Henry was targeted five times for three receptions and 31 yards against Seattle in Super Bowl LX, and his Week 1 projections all sit above three receptions with some leaning toward four catches.
