  Patriots | Hunter Henry misses practice    Wed Dec 31, 06:26 PM

New England Patriots TE Hunter Henry (knee) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Dec. 31.

Footballguys view: Henry and the Patriots are trying for the no1 seed, so they'll play their starters in Week 18. If he's full on Friday, that would help us have confidence that Henry will play.

  Patriots | New England to play starters    Wed Dec 31, 01:59 PM

The New England Patriots plan to play their starters in Week 18 as they play for the number one seed, according to head coach Mike Vrabel.

Footballguys view: The Patriots need the Broncos to lose against the Chargers in order to be in position for the no.1 seed. With Justin Herbert not playing, it seems like the Broncos can wrap up that first-round bye on Sunday. Anything can happen, but the Patriots need to win and get help in order to be the top seed in the AFC.

  Patriots | Stefon Diggs facing criminal charges    Tue Dec 30, 12:25 PM

New England Patriots WR Stefon Diggs has been charged with felony strangulation or suffocation and misdemeanor assault and battery charges stemming from an incident Tuesday, Dec. 2. Diggs' attorney, Michael DiStefano, disclosed to the court that Diggs has made a financial offer to resolve the dispute with the alleged victim in this case. He is scheduled to be arraigned on Friday, Jan. 23, just two days before the AFC Championship game is scheduled to be played.

Footballguys view: According to the Patriots, Diggs "categorically denies the allegations" against him -- despite the efforts to reach agreement on monetary resolution with the alleged victim. The Patriots (13-3) have their final regular-season game on Sunday against the Dolphins, then will be in the AFC playoffs. As Profootballtalk.com notes, the charges won't affect Diggs' ability to play in the 2025 postseason (and the team's statement suggests they won't either). The impediment, if any, to Diggs participating in the playoffs would come from the NFL, which could place him on paid leave. We'll watch for more on that.

  Patriots | Will Campbell may return soon    Mon Dec 29, 01:11 PM

New England Patriots OT Will Campbell (knee) may have his 21-day practice window opened this week, according to head coach Mike Vrabel.

Footballguys view: Campbell has been sidelined by a knee injury. A return to practice will open a 21-day window to activate Campbell, so he would be able to return for the playoffs even if the Patriots don't take him off of injured reserve ahead of their Week 18 game against the Dolphins.

  Patriots | Hunter Henry gets into end zone in Week 17    Sun Dec 28, 04:49 PM

New England Patriots TE Hunter Henry went for three receptions, 49 yards and a touchdown on three targets in Week 17 against the New York Jets.

Footballguys view: Henry wasn't a huge hit, but if you went to him to cover a George Kittle or Brock Bowers absence, you were satisfied with what you got. He'll be a player of some consequence in playoff fantasy football leagues.

  Patriots | Stefon Diggs hits century mark in Week 17    Sun Dec 28, 04:44 PM

New England Patriots WR Stefon Diggs posted six receptions for 101 yards and a touchdown on six targets in Week 17 against the New York Jets.

Footballguys view: Diggs has ended up being much more impactful than Chris Godwin even though he was seen as a fallback to Godwin when the Bucs veteran receiver chose to stay in Tampa over basically a blank check from the Patriots. Diggs was also ready to play earlier than Godwin, who had to have a second surgery on his injured ankle. Diggs had a short slump earlier in December, but finished with two huge games to reward fantasy players who received in him.

  Patriots | Rhamonde Stevenson totals pair of TDs    Sun Dec 28, 04:29 PM

New England Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson rushed eight times for 47 yards and a touchdown in Week 17 against the New York Jets, and he added five receptions for 55 yards and a touchdown on five targets.

Footballguys view: Stevenson has been the Patriots running back who adds value at times as a receiver instead of rookie TreVeyon Henderson as the drafting of his potential replacement seemed to light a fire under the veteran. He wasn't consistently making a fantasy impact this season, but if you trusted him in a great Week 17 matchup, you were very happy with what you got today.

  Patriots | TreVeyon Henderson runs for 82 yards    Sun Dec 28, 04:25 PM

New England Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson rushed 19 times for 82 yards in Week 17 against the New York Jets, while he was not targeted in the passing game.

Footballguys view: Rhamondre Stevenson got the two running back scores as the passing game involvement we expected hasn't really materialized. He still has shown home run speed and should only get better in an offense that has moved into the penthouse of quality and fantasy value. Henderson rallied to play after suffering a concussion last Saturday and while he didn't produce fantasy fireworks, he showed he can log a heavy workload in the bread and butter running game.

  Patriots | Drake Maye pulled in Week 17 rout    Sun Dec 28, 03:09 PM

New England Patriots QB Drake Maye completed 19-of-21 passes for 256 yards, five touchdowns and no interceptions in Week 17 against the New York Jets, as QB Joshua Dobbs mopped up. He also ran for 22 yards on three carries. Maye is the first Patriots QB to have five touchdown passes in a game since QB Tom Brady in 2017.

Footballguys view: Maye is the first quarterback in NFL history to complete 90+% of his passes in a game while throwing for over 250 yards and five touchdowns. This is a statement about where Maye is in his career as much as it is a statement about where the Jets defense is right now. Maye has graduated to elite fantasy quarterback status. He'll be going all out along with the rest of the Patriots offense against Miami with the #1 seed on the line if the Chargers (who are only playing for wild card seeding) can beat the Broncos.

  Patriots | TreVeyon Henderson clears protocol    Sat Dec 27, 05:31 PM

New England Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson (concussion) has cleared the concussion protocol leading up to the Week 17 game.

Footballguys view: Great news for the Patriots here. Against the Jets on Sunday, Henderson should post RB2/flex numbers for Fantasy GMs. He has the upside to do more on any given play, but he's also set to continue splitting time with Rhamondre Stevenson.

  Patriots | Mack Hollins will not be available    Fri Dec 26, 02:16 PM

New England Patriots WR Mack Hollins (abdomen) has been ruled out of the Week 17 game.

Footballguys view: Hollins production has been sporadic this year, but he's been a team leader. With him out, rookie Kyle Williams could see an expanded role as the team's downfield threat. He should only be started by desperate managers in deep leagues, but there's potential for a big play from Williams.

  Patriots | Kayshon Boutte ruled out for Week 17    Fri Dec 26, 01:57 PM

New England Patriots WR Kayshon Boutte (concussion) has been ruled out for Week 17 by head coach Mike Vrabel.

Footballguys view: The Patriots will be down Mack Hollins and Boutte this week. Kyle Williams stands to be the biggest beneficiary, but he's a highly volatile player who will likely make or break his day on a single play.

  Patriots | TreVeyon Henderson sheds non-contact jersey    Fri Dec 26, 12:46 PM

New England Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson (concussion) was without a non-contact jersey in practice Friday, Dec. 26.

Footballguys view: Assuming Henderson logs a full practice on Friday, he'll likely play Sunday. He exited last week's game with a concussion but would fall into RB2 consideration if active. The Patriots close out the season with two divisional matchups, the Jets this week and the Dolphins in Week 18. Both struggle against the run, giving Henderson tremendous upside.

New England Patriots WR Kayshon Boutte (concussion) is in the concussion protocol Tuesday, Dec. 23.

Footballguys view: Boutte being out could mean more work for rookie wideout Kyle Williams, who hauled in a 37-yard touchdown pass against the Ravens. DeMario Douglas, who has been quiet in recent weeks, could also see more action. Remember, however, Douglas left Sunday's game with a hamstring injury. Head coach Mike Vrabel didn't offer an update on Douglas. We'll be watching for more on Boutte and Douglas as the week progresses.

  Patriots | TreVeyon Henderson in protocol    Tue Dec 23, 11:40 AM

New England Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson (concussion) is in concussion protocol Tuesday, Dec. 23.

Footballguys view: If Henderson is out for Sunday's game against the Jets, the Patriots could look to elevate a player from the practice squad to work behind Rhamondre Stevenson and D'Ernest Johnson, who is currently filling in for the injured Terrell Jennings. All that said, Stevenson would be in a great spot for this one, going up against a New York defense that's allowed the fourth-most fantasy points to opposing running backs (29.4 points per game) over the past six weeks. We'll follow up on Henderson over the coming days.

  Patriots | TreVeyon Henderson's Week 17 status unclear    Mon Dec 22, 01:34 AM

New England Patriots running back TreVeyon Henderson was injured in the second quarter of his team's Week 16 game against the Baltimore Ravens. The Patriots announced Henderson had been ruled out of Sunday's game because of a head injury. Patriots coach Mike Vrabel did not provide an update about Henderson's status moving forward following Sunday's game.

Footballguys view: Henderson's injury occurred after he was tackled following a 1-yard gain. Henderson originally got up and tried to return to the huddle. However, he eventually went to the ground, and New England's medical staff came onto the field to tend to him. Henderson was able to walk off under his own power and was taken to the blue medical tent for further evaluation. The talented rookie was initially deemed "questionable" to return in the first half but was declared out just after halftime. Rhamondre Stevenson would stand to gain if Henderson isn't available against the Jets in Week 17.
