The New England offense leans on tight ends in this camp battle, with an undisclosed injury to Hunter Henry clouding Week 2 and Minnesota prep looming. Austin Hooper slides into starter reps, while Gee Scott Jr., Jack Westover, C.J. Dippre, and Jaheim Bell chase snaps behind him. If Henry’s absence extends to Minnesota, the Patriots’ tight end rotation will be tested and fantasy managers will need to monitor who steps up in camp and early preseason action.

Henry’s chemistry with Drake Maye this summer adds another layer to the offense, but Week 2 could hinge on Hooper’s consistency and the ceiling of the depth trio. Westover’s versatility at fullback/TE could swing reps in the two-TE looks, while Dippre and Bell will need to carve routes and blocks. Hooper remains the anchor, but the depth chart behind him becomes a high-leverage fantasy story as teams prepare for the regular season.
