As Rapoport pointed out, Gesicki has been impressive so far in camp. Rapoport added while nothing is given, the hope is he’s back for Week 1 despite the AC joint injury. As we stated yesterday, we do rank Henry higher than Gesicki on our TE list.

The post said Gesicki got hurt on a tackling drill against LB Jahlani Tavai. Gesicki walked off in pain with the head trainer grabbing under his shoulder pads, and he didn't return. While Gesicki was starting to get noticed at camp recently, we still rank him 31st on our TE list and below Henry, who is 20th.

With Miami passing on re-signing the tight end/slot receiver, they now have a huge need to attack the position in the NFL Draft. For the Patriots, Gesicki essentially fills in for Jonnu Smith, who they shipped off earlier in free agency. Hunter Henry's fantasy stock has been an entire roller coaster in the span of one week.

Patriots TE Hunter Henry, who was dealing with a knee injury this weekend, is considered day-to-day. He's sore. But has a chance to play.

Former UDFA Scotty Washington saw his first snaps of the year, but Jonnu Smith would be the true beneficiary if Henry were to miss any time. Smith shifted away from his run-blocking duties for the most part in Week 15, but it still only resulted in four targets and 21 yards. Jonnu's time in New England has not been fortuitous for fantasy, and it isn't like to change regardless of Hunter's status.

Patriots TE Jonnu Smith, who has had tests done on his injured ankle over the last few days, was diagnosed with a low-ankle sprain, source said.

The tweet went on to say he's week-to-week. That likely means he could miss Week 5 and possibly beyond. Smith has just a 5-58-0 line for the season. While Henry could see a bump in production, his line for the season is 5-41-0.

Patriots RBs Rhamondre Stevenson (knee) and Damien Harris (neck), and TEs Jonnu Smith (shoulder) and Hunter Henry (neck) are questionable for Week 12's game against the Tennessee Titans.

It is expected that all four players suit up, but with the Titans severely undermanned, one or two could be surprise inactives.

Patriots WR Kendrick Bourne (shoulder) and TE Jonnu Smith (shoulder) are questionable for Week 8's game against the Los Angeles Chargers.

Bourne has been New England's WR2 this season and Smith has only seen smatterings of production behind Henry. Henry is headed back to where he played his entire career and should be one of Mac Jones's favorite targets.

Don't look now, but Hunter Henry is starting to heat up a bit. Over the last two weeks, Henry has been able to find his way into the end zone and Sunday's win proved to be the best statistical outing of his Patriots career.

Numbers-wise, Henry was targeted by Mac Jones a team-high eight times and hauled in six receptions for 75 yards, which included a 13-yard touchdown that evened the score up at 22. While it has taken Henry some time to truly be an impactful piece in this New England offense, he has been a reliable outlet for Jones from the jump, catching 20 of his 26 targets on the year. This combination should only get stronger as the season goes along and both players get more comfortable within the offense, the story went on to say.

However the offense takes shape, Hunter Henry and Jonnu Smith, the team’s highest-paid and most established weapons, will be featured. They are the rock upon which Bill Belichick has rebuilt his offense. And offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels isn’t discouraged whatsoever by their lack of time together this summer.

The story went on to say signing Henry and Smith was an organizational recommitment to reclaiming the middle of the field, where the Patriots have drawn battle lines for two decades. Belichick has preached winning between the numbers since his days coaching in Cleveland. If Henry and Smith succeed in the box and down the seam, Jones will thrive. Smith and Henry were banged up a lot during camp and missed valuable time, so it remains to be seen how quick the team can turn to this offense and have success. We have Smith ranked higher but, based on this story, it's possible Henry could turn into a sneaky pick and play this season.
