2. Hunter Henry Will Record His First TD
Hunter Henry is another one of Justin Herbert’s favorite targets, but has failed to score a touchdown this year. On the year, Henry has been targeted 26 times in which he’s caught 18 passes for 245 yards.
Henry is another favorable option in fantasy this week as I like him matched up versus the Saints linebackers.
The Saints have a solid front 7, but I think Henry will be utilized in the red zone, where the linebackers are forced to play man to man coverage. Hunter Henry was signed to the franchise tag during the offseason. He will need to start producing if he wants to get a contract in the offseason.
One way to start is to have a big game on primetime. While I don’t see Henry reeling in a lot of yards, I do see him being a big third down target. I also have Henry getting his first touchdown of the year.
