NFL 2018: Top 12 0.5 PPR NFL Fantasy Tight Ends

#10 Hunter Henry – Los Angeles Chargers – 2017 total = 104.4

Los Angeles Chargers v Dallas Cowboys

2018 is going to be an important year for Henry. It’s his time to step out of Antonio Gates’s shadow, with the veteran being released this offseason.

The former second-round pick out of Arkansas, is great in the passing game, with slick routes and sticky hands. Henry finished last year by taking over the starting TE spot from Gates and finishing with 45 catches, 579 yards, and 4 touchdowns.

At times last season, Henry frustrated fantasy owners with big scores followed by poor performances, including a couple of games with zero receptions.

There is no doubt that the offense performs better when Henry is targeted more often. The Chargers went 7-1 when Henry was targeted more than 4 times.

Phillip Rivers has a lot of mouths to feed in the Chargers offense with Keenan Allen, Mike Williams, Melvin Gordon and Henry all hungry for increased roles.
