Four catches Sunday Hooper, who was on the field for 23 of a possible 60 snaps on offense in Sunday's 32-16 loss to the Jaguars, caught four of his five targets in the contest for 32 yards, Mike Reiss...

Impact Meanwhile fellow TE Hunter Henry (52 snaps) caught eight of his nine targets for a team-high 92 yards. Despite his uptick in usage Sunday, Hooper is not a high-percentage fantasy lineup option while working in a timeshare that favors Henry.

One catch versus Texans Hooper logged 37 of 66 snaps on offense in Sunday's 41-21 loss to the Texans, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Hooper finished the contest with one catch on two targets for five yards, while fellow TE Hunter Henry (47 snaps) caught three of his five targets for 41 yards and a TD. With an 8/82/1 receiving line on 16 targets through six games, Hooper is off the fantasy radar in a time-share that continues to favor Henry.

One catch Sunday Hooper was one the field for 25 of a possible 60 snaps on offense in Sunday's 15-10 loss to the Dolphins, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Hooper wound up with one catch on three targets for nine yards in the contest, while fellow TE Hunter Henry logged 56 snaps while catching two of his four targets for 32 yards. In a time-share that leans toward Henry, Hooper's fantasy upside remains modest.

Impact Meanwhile, fellow TE Hunter Henry was on the field for 50 snaps, en route to hauling in two of his three targets for 12 yards. Through four contests to date, Hooper has combined for six catches on 11 targets for 68 yards and a TD, a pace that keeps him off the fantasy radar while working alongside Henry.

One catch against Jets Hooper was on the field for 30 of a possible 52 snaps on offense in Thursday's 24-3 loss to the Jets, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

Impact In a game in which the Patriots offense was held in check, Hooper caught one of his four targets for 19 yards, while fellow TE Hunter Henry (33 snaps) hauled in two of his three targets for nine yards. Hooper's fantasy upside remains modest as long as Henry remains available.

Impact The Patriots ran a fair amount of two-TE sets Sunday, but Hunter Henry (57 snaps, eight catches) was QB Jacoby Brissett's featured target in Week 2. As long as Henry remains available, Hooper's fantasy upside will remain modest.

SEPTEMBER 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Two catches in opener Hooper logged 36 of a possible 65 snaps on offense in the Patriots' 16-10 season-opening win over the Bengals on Sunday, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

Impact In the process, Hooper caught two of his four targets for 31 yards, while fellow TE Hunter Henry (54 snaps) caught two of his three targets for 18 yards. As long as Henry remains healthy, Hooper looks like a hit-or-miss fantasy option at his position.

Sits out preseason finale Hooper didn't see any action in Sunday's preseason finale against the Commanders.

Impact Per Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site Hooper was in uniform for the contest, but with top TE Hunter Henry still sidelined by an undisclosed injury and Mitchell Wilcox (calf) also unavailable Sunday, Jaheim Bell, La'Michael Pettway and Jacob Warren were given one last opportunity to make their cases for depth slotting ahead of the team's roster cut-downs. As Week 1 approaches, Hooper's fantasy upside early on this season hinges on Henry's availability. When both players are available, Hooper is slated to work in a complementary role.

Dressed for preseason finale Hooper (undisclosed) is in uniform for Sunday's preseason game against the Commanders, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

Impact Hooper is healthy enough to play after suffering an injury in practice last Saturday and subsequently missing some practice time. Meanwhile, fellow tight end Hunter Henry (undisclosed) remains unavailable for Sunday's preseason finale, and his status for the Sept. 8 regular-season opener against the Bengals remains up in the air. While Hooper's in uniform Sunday, he may not actually take the field, instead ceding playing time to rookie seventh-round pick Jaheim Bell, who is battling to make the team.

Absent from practice with injury Hooper (undisclosed) didn't practice Sunday, Mark Daniels of MassLive.com reports.

Impact Hooper suffered an injury during practice Saturday, per Phil Perry of NBC Sports Boston. The Patriots' tight-end room is now dealing with injuries to each of its top three options, as Hunter Henry also sat out Sunday due to an undisclosed issue and Mitchell Wilcox departed early with an injury. Rookie Jaheim Bell consequently ended up with increased reps during the session.

Catches one pass versus Eagles Hooper caught one of his three targets for nine yards in Thursday's 14-13 preseason loss to the Eagles.

Impact Fellow tight end Hunter Henry sat out the contest, as he deals with a minor unspecified injury, but as long as he's available come Week 1, Hooper figures to work in a complementary role in the Patriots offense. In the event that Henry misses time at any point this season, however, Hooper could potentially emerge as a streaming option at his position.
