Coach Mike Vrabel indicated the Patriots plan to add to a tight-end corps led by Henry before training camp in the wake of the season-ending injury Julian Hill (knee) sustained during OTAs, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
With Hill on IR and Austin Hooper now with the Falcons, 2026 third-rounder Eli Raridon is next up behind Henry on the depth chart, with CJ Dippre, Tanner Arkin and FB/TE Jack Westover also currently in the mix. Henry -- who is heading into the final season of the three-year deal he signed with New England in March 2024 -- put up a 60/768/7 receiving line on 87 targets in 17 regular-season games in 2025. He's slated to remain a key target for rising young QB Drake Maye in 2026, a context that gives Henry a stable weekly floor from a fantasy perspective.

Henry caught 60 of 87 targets for 768 yards and seven touchdowns over 17 games during the 2025 regular season.
EDGE Analysis
Henry was able to appear in all 17 of the team's regular-season contests for the first time since 2022, and he notched a career-high 768 receiving yards. His seven touchdowns were his highest total since 2021, and he reeled in at least 60 passes for the second straight year and third time overall in his 10-year NFL career. The tight end also caught nine of 15 targets for 112 yards and a score over the Patriots' four games during the postseason. Henry has developed into being quite a reliable option for quarterback Drake Maye, and he'll look to keep it up in 2026.

Henry (rest) wasn't listed on Wednesday's injury report.
EDGE Analysis
Henry was listed as DNP/LP/FP last week due to rest but still was one of nine Patriots to get tagged as questionable for Super Bowl LX. His lack of a listing to begin this week indicates he's good to go ahead of Sunday's game against the Seahawks. In New England's three postseason contests to date, Henry has combined for a 6-81-1 line on 10 targets.

Henry (rest) is listed as questionable on Friday's injury report ahead of Super Bowl LX against the Seahawks on Sunday, Feb. 8.
EDGE Analysis
Henry was estimated as DNP on Wednesday, was then listed as limited Thursday and finished the week with a designation of full. His injury tag is simply "rest," so not much should be read into the initial questionable label -- in fact, the Patriots appeared to play it safe with their statuses this week, tagging all nine players (including the four who were deemed full participants Friday and the three who were DNPs all week) as questionable. There's nothing at this point to suggest that Henry is actually in any danger of missing the Super Bowl, and next week's New England practice reports should provide much more insight into the health of the roster ahead of the title game versus Seattle.

Henry caught two of three targets for 12 yards in Sunday's 10-7 win over the Broncos in the AFC Championship Game.
EDGE Analysis
Neither passing game did much in challenging wintry conditions, as Drake Maye threw for only 86 yards. New England's defense carried the team into Super Bowl LX, in which Henry will face the Seahawks. Henry could be a key component of New England's game plan against a Seattle defense that has been supbar at defending tight ends this season while excelling against other skill positions.

Henry caught one of his two targets for five yards in Sunday's 28-16 divisional-round win over the Texans.
EDGE Analysis
Though Henry logged a 72 percent snap share in the contest, per Mike Reiss of ESPN.com, the Patriots' top TE recorded his lowest production of the entire 2025 campaign (regular season and postseason included). Looking ahead, Henry profiles as a bounce-back candidate in Sunday's AFC Championship Game against the Broncos. Henry was held to one catch four times during the regular season, and in each instance he returned to a more prominent/productive role in his next outing.

Henry (knee) practiced fully Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Henry was listed as limited Wednesday, but his return to a full session Thursday sets the stage for the Patriots' No. 1 tight end to be available for Sunday's divisional-round game against the Texans. During the regular season, Henry made his mark by recording a 60-768-7 line on 87 targets in 17 games, and he should remain one of QB Drake Maye's top pass catchers this weekend against a tough Houston defense that held the Steelers to six points in this past Monday's wild-card win.

Henry (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
EDGE Analysis
Henry was not spotted at the early portion of Wednesday's practice open to the media, Taylor Kyles of CLNSMedia.com reports, but it appears he managed to get in limited reps despite having to manage a knee injury. Henry has scored three times in his last four appearances, including a 3-64-1 receiving line managed during New England's wild-card round win over the Chargers. He will have two more chances to upgrade to full practice reps ahead of Sunday's divisional-round game against the Texans.

Henry caught three of five targets for 64 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 16-3 wild-card game win over the Chargers.
EDGE Analysis
Henry's 28-yard touchdown catch in the fourth quarter was the only touchdown by either team. The tight end tied with Stefon Diggs for the team lead in targets, but Rhamondre Stevenson (75) and Kayshon Boutte (66) both had more receiving yards. Henry has scored in three of his last four games dating back to the regular season, and he'll look to keep rolling in the AFC divisional round, when the Patriots host the winner of Monday's matchup between the Texans and Steelers.

Henry brought in all five targets for 56 yards in the Patriots' 38-10 win over the Dolphins on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Henry led the Patriots across the board in receptions, receiving yards and targets in the season finale, earning a $250,000 incentive in his contract in the process by getting to the 60-catch threshold for the season. The veteran tight end displayed excellent rapport with second-year breakout signal-caller Drake Maye throughout the 2025 campaign, allowing Henry to amass a career-high 768 receiving yards and also post seven touchdowns over 17 games. Henry should remain one of Maye's favorite targets during the upcoming postseason, beginning with next weekend's home matchup against the Chargers in the wild-card round.
