Austin Hooper Austin Hooper Held without a catch Monday
Tue, Dec 2, 2025, 8:50 AM
Hooper was on the field for 25 of a possible 65 snaps on offense in Monday's 33-15 win over the Giants, per Mike Reiss of ESPN.com.
Analysis: In the process, Hooper, who caught three of his four targets for 39 yards the Patriots' Week 12 win over the Bengals, did not record a target in the contest, while fellow TE Hunter Henry (49 snaps) brought in four of six targets for 73 yards. Hooper heads into his team's bye week with a 16/213/1 receiving line on 19 targets in 12 games, a rate of production that limits his fantasy viability to the deepest of formats. |

Kayshon Boutte Kayshon Boutte Gets into end zone Monday
Mon, Dec 1, 2025, 11:09 PM
Boutte brought in four of five targets for 35 yards and a touchdown in the Patriots' 33-15 win over the Giants on Monday night.
Analysis: Boutte tied Hunter Henry for the team lead in receptions and brought in one of Drake Maye's two touchdown passes, recording a three-yard scoring grab with one minute remaining in the first quarter. Five of Boutte's six touchdowns on the campaign have come within the last six contests, although he's only totaled 50 receiving yards in the last three games. Boutte next takes aim at the Bills' talented secondary in a Week 15 home clash on Sunday, Dec. 14 following a Week 14 bye. |

Stefon Diggs Stefon Diggs Remains quiet in Week 13 win
Mon, Dec 1, 2025, 11:03 PM
Diggs secured three of four targets for 26 yards in the Patriots' 33-15 win over the Giants on Monday night.
Analysis: Despite Drake Maye throwing for 282 yards on 24 completions, Diggs was once again a minor player in the air attack. The veteran wideout has 46 yards or fewer in five of his last six games, including back-to-back sub-30-yard tallies. Nevertheless, Diggs has the ability to resurface in a passing game that spreads the wealth around to different targets on a weekly basis, and such an instance could come in a Week 15 matchup against his old Bills teammates on Sunday, Dec. 14 following a Week 14 bye. |

Hunter Henry Hunter Henry Leads pass catchers in win
Mon, Dec 1, 2025, 10:57 PM
Henry brought in four of six targets for 73 yards in the Patriots' 33-15 win over the Giants on Monday night.
Analysis: Henry co-led the Patriots in receptions while setting the pace in receiving yards and targets on the night. The veteran tight end also tied with running back Rhamondre Stevenson for the longest reception of the night (36 yards), and Henry now has 187 receiving yards and a touchdown on 11 catches over the last two games. Henry has flashed excellent chemistry with Drake Maye throughout the season, and the duo should remain busy in a Week 15 home showdown against the Bills on Sunday, Dec. 14 following a Week 14 bye. |

Rhamondre Stevenson Rhamondre Stevenson Role expands in Week 13 win
Mon, Dec 1, 2025, 10:53 PM
Stevenson rushed 12 times for 40 yards and secured all three targets for 40 yards in the Patriots' 33-15 win over the Giants on Monday night.
Analysis: Stevenson saw one more carry than TreVeyon Henderson in the run-heavy gameplan, but he finished with 27 fewer yards. However, Stevenson was the more effective receiver of the two thanks to his co-game-high 36-yard reception, which helped the veteran to his second-highest receiving yardage total of the campaign. Stevenson doubled his Week 12 workload on the ground, but Henderson likely remains the No. 1 option heading into a Week 15 home clash on Sunday, Dec. 14 against the Bills following a Week 14 bye. |

TreVeyon Henderson TreVeyon Henderson Tallies 86 total yards in win
Mon, Dec 1, 2025, 10:47 PM
Henderson rushed 11 times for 67 yards and brought in three of four targets for 19 yards in the Patriots' 33-15 win over the Giants on Monday night.
Analysis: Henderson actually logged one fewer carry than Rhamondre Stevenson, but he outgained his backfield mate by 27 rushing yards and drew one additional target as well. Both backs had ample opportunity thanks to game script, as the Patriots already held a 30-7 lead at halftime. Henderson is still likely the No. 1 option under normal circumstances, but both backs are clearly trusted by the coaching staff. Henderson next takes aim at the Bills' typically generous run defense in a Week 15 home showdown on Sunday, Dec. 14 following a Week 14 bye. |

Mack Hollins Mack Hollins Three catches during MNF
Mon, Dec 1, 2025, 10:38 PM
Hollins caught three of four targets for 23 yards in Monday night's 33-15 win over the Giants.
Analysis: Hollins was able to secure multiple passes for the eighth straight game, but he's now gone nine contests in a row without reaching the end zone. The wide receiver is one of the many mouths to feed in a New England offense that loves to spread the ball around, with eight different players reeling in at least one pass in Week 13. Hollins has now caught 35 of 48 targets for 417 yards and two touchdowns over 13 games this year. |

Kyle Williams Kyle Williams Makes most of one target
Mon, Dec 1, 2025, 10:36 PM
Williams recorded one catch on one target for 33 yards and a touchdown in Monday's 33-15 win over the Giants.
Analysis: Williams was not prioritized in the Patriots' offense, logging the fewest targets of eight players to hit the stat sheet Monday night. However, he made his one look count, hauling in a touchdown on an over-the-shoulder grab with excellent ball placement from Drake Maye. Williams has seen one or fewer targets in 10 games this season, though he's emerged as a downfield threat in recent weeks. |

DeMario Douglas DeMario Douglas Nabs all three targets in Week 13
Mon, Dec 1, 2025, 10:35 PM
Douglas hauled in all three of his targets for 33 yards in Monday's 33-15 victory over the Giants.
Analysis: Douglas tied for fourth in receiving yardage among Patriots pass catchers, and he was one of five players on the team to catch three passes in a contest during which QB Drake Maye spread the ball around pretty evenly. Two of Douglas' catches came in a span of three plays late in the second quarter as New England drove quickly down the field for a field goal just before halftime. Douglas has rarely been prolific this season, but he's been quite consistent of late with between 33 and 37 receiving yards in four straight games. |

Drake Maye Drake Maye Elite efficiency in Week 13 win
Mon, Dec 1, 2025, 10:27 PM
Maye completed 24 of 31 passes for 282 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions while adding six rushes for 12 yards in the Patriots' 33-15 win over the Giants on Monday night.
Analysis: About the only blemish on Maye's final line was the three sacks he took from the Giants' highly aggressive front, as the second-year signal-caller otherwise was in command from start to finish. He helped stake the Patriots to a 30-7 halftime lead with three- and 33-yard touchdown passes to Kayshon Boutte and Kyle Williams, respectively. Maye didn't have to do much in the second half, but he still netted the third-most passing yards in a game of his career. Maye now has thrown for at least 270 yards in four consecutive contests heading into a Week 15 home showdown against the Bills on Sunday, Dec. 14 following a Week 14 bye. |

Terrell Jennings Terrell Jennings Ruled out with head injury
Mon, Dec 1, 2025, 8:34 PM
Jennings (head) will not return to Monday's game against the Giants, Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald reports.
Analysis: Jennings exited the game early in the second quarter and was last seen headed into the locker room. It's unclear if he was diagnosed with a concussion, though additional details should emerge following the game. TreVeyon Henderson and Rhamondre Stevenson should see a heavy workload for the rest of the game as the only healthy running backs that are active for the Patriots. |

Terrell Jennings Terrell Jennings Heads to locker room
Mon, Dec 1, 2025, 8:05 PM
Jennings is questionable to return to Monday's game against the Giants due to a head injury, Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald reports.
Analysis: The type of injury was initially unclear, but Jennings was spotted walking from the medical tent to the locker room early in the second quarter. If he ultimately is ruled out, TreVeyon Henderson and Rhamondre Stevenson will be the only active and healthy backs for New England. |

Tommy DeVito Tommy DeVito Emergency QB3 for MNF
Mon, Dec 1, 2025, 5:53 PM
DeVito (coach's decision) is inactive for Monday night's game against the Giants.
Analysis: DeVito will serve as the Patriots' emergency QB3 behind Drake Maye and Joshua Dobbs. DeVito hasn't appeared in a game this season. |

Hunter Henry Hunter Henry Logs full practice Friday
Fri, Nov 28, 2025, 3:59 PM
Henry (toe) practiced fully Friday.
Analysis: After being deemed limited on Thursday's practice report, which was based on what the Patriots did on the field Wednesday, Henry returned to a full session Friday, which paves the way for the tight end to continue his key role in New England's offense Monday night against the Giants. Through 12 games to date, Henry -- who caught seven of his 10 targets for 115 yards and a TD in this past Sunday's win over the Bengals -- has maintained fantasy relevance by recording a 41-537-5 line on 63 targets in that span. |

Hunter Henry Hunter Henry Listed as limited Thursday
Thu, Nov 27, 2025, 2:37 PM
Henry (toe) was listed as limited on Thursday's practice report, which was based on what the Patriots did on the field Wednesday.
Analysis: The Patriots didn't practice on Thursday, but Henry -- who logged a 79 percent snap share and was targeted 10 times in this past Sunday's win over the Bengals -- was deemed limited based on his activity in Wednesday's session. The tight end thus has two more chances to upgrade his participation level before the team assigns game statuses for Monday night's game against the Giants. |

Austin Hooper Austin Hooper Three catches against Bengals
Mon, Nov 24, 2025, 11:03 AM
Hooper caught three of his four targets for 39 yards in Sunday's 26-20 win over the Bengals.
Analysis: During a game in which the Patriots' TEs were more of a focal point than usual, Hunter Henry recorded seven catches for 115 yards and a TD on 10 targets, while none of the team's WRs had more than two catches. As next Monday's game against the Giants approaches, Hooper's fantasy value remains modest with Henry as the clear top option for Drake Maye at tight end. |
|
Kyle Williams Kyle Williams One catch Sunday
Mon, Nov 24, 2025, 10:56 AM
Williams caught his only target for 18 yards in Sunday's 26-20 win over the Bengals.
Analysis: With fellow WR Kayshon Boutte back in the mix after a two-game absence, Williams was on the field for just five of 71 snaps on offense Sunday per Mike Reiss of ESPN.com. The 2025 third-rounder will remain off the fantasy radar unless injuries hit New England's WR corps once again. |

Mack Hollins Mack Hollins Two catches versus Bengals
Mon, Nov 24, 2025, 10:51 AM
Hollins caught two of his six targets for 30 yards in Sunday's 26-20 win over the Bengals.
Analysis: Hollins led New England's wide receivers in playing time Sunday, logging 61 of 71 snaps on offense per Mike Reiss of ESPN.com. However, tight ends Hunter Henry and Austin Hooper recorded 10 catches on the afternoon while none of the Patriots' WRs had more than two catches. Looking ahead to next Monday's game against the Giants, game flow could lead to more production from Hollins, but Drake Maye's tendency to spread the ball around makes the wideout a speculative fantasy lineup option in Week 13. |
|
DeMario Douglas DeMario Douglas One catch in Week 12
Mon, Nov 24, 2025, 10:38 AM
Douglas, who was on the field for 12 of 71 snaps on offense in Sunday's 26-20 win over the Bengals per Mike Reiss of ESPN.com, caught his only target for 37 yards.
Analysis: Douglas added 14 rushing yards on his lone carry. With Stefon Diggs, Kayshon Boutte and Mack Hollins all typically seeing more playing time than Douglas, the 24-year-old slot man remains a risky fantasy option ahead of next Monday's game against the Giants. |

Kayshon Boutte Kayshon Boutte Two catches in return
Mon, Nov 24, 2025, 10:33 AM
Boutte was on the field for 57 of 71 snaps on offense in Sunday's 26-20 win over the Bengals per Mike Reiss of ESPN.com, catching both of his targets for 15 yards in his return from a two-game absence.
Analysis: Given that he logged an 80 percent snap share Sunday, Boutte appears to be past the hamstring issue that had sidelined him, positioning him to maintain his steady role in the Patriots' WR corps. Drake Maye's tendency to spread the ball around could lead to some quiet games for Boutte, but the 25-446-5 line he's compiled on 33 targets through 10 games highlights the 23-year-old's ceiling. |
