Austin Hooper finds the end zone in Week 17

Austin Hooper caught both of his targets for 11 yards and a touchdown in the Patriots 42-10 win over the Jets.

Fantasy Impact

Hooper found the end zone on a two-yard reception to open the scoring against the Jets. Hooper continues to operate as the second tight end on the Patriots and should not be trusted by managers that have matchups in Week 18.

Austin Hooper (concussion) logs limited practice Wednesday

Austin Hooper (concussion) logged a limited practice session on Wednesday.

Fantasy Impact

The veteran missed New England's last game while going through the NFL's concussion protocols, but he seems to be progressing well and was able to log a limited practice session on Wednesday. It looks likely that he will be fully cleared to play for Sunday's game against the Bengals, which may mean slightly less snaps for Hunter Henry moving forward.

Austin Hooper (concussion) will be unavailable for Thursday night's game against the New York Jets.

Fantasy Impact

Hooper is still going through the NFL's concussion protocols and is going to be sidelined on Thursday night as a result. Fantasy managers should expect his absence to lead to slightly more work for Hunter Henry and Kyle Williams against the Jets this week.
