Hunter Henry vs Tyler Warren: The Full Breakdown

Hunter Henry (8.8 PPG) and Tyler Warren (8.9 PPG) produced nearly identical fantasy numbers in 2025. When two tight ends are this close on a per-game basis, the weekly matchup matters more than the season-long resume. Hunter Henry played 17 games for the New England Patriots; Tyler Warren suited up 17 times for the Indianapolis Colts.

A 0.1-point per-game gap over a full season is essentially noise. It means one extra catch, one fewer target, or a single broken play away from flipping the script. For a weekly start/sit call between these two, matchup analysis matters far more than the season line.

Tyler Warren is the volume tight end in this matchup with 76 receptions for 817 yards, while Hunter Henry profiles as a more touchdown-dependent spike play (7 scores on 60 catches). In weeks where Hunter Henry finds the end zone he out-scores Tyler Warren, but the floor gap is real.

Bye weeks matter for roster construction: Hunter Henry sits Week 11 while Tyler Warren is off Week 13. If you are deciding between the two as a season-long roster hold, the staggered byes actually work in your favor.

Trade Value + Dynasty Outlook

Both are in a similar trade value range. A straight swap would be fair in most leagues, with the tiebreaker going to whichever manager values schedule or bye week more. Dynasty outlook: Hunter Henry (age 31) is in the later years of production. Still a redraft asset, but dynasty value is declining. Tyler Warren (age 24) has years of prime production ahead. Buy-and-hold dynasty asset.
