.Los Angeles Chargers tight end Hunter Henry (knee), who tore his ACL in organized team activities in May, has a chance to return next month, according to league sources. However, his return is still a long shot. He has been running and squatting and his strength is returning and he has not suffered any setbacks. If the Chargers can make a postseason push, the chances might be better that Henry can make an impact for them late in the year. Those in redraft leagues should continue to leave Henry on the waiver wire, as it's highly unlikely that he'll help fantasy teams in the fantasy playoffs. The Chargers have been getting next to no production at the tight end spot from veteran Antonio Gates and Virgil Green in Henry's absence.

Though the Chargers are hopeful Henry (knee) will be ready to come off the PUP list at some point in December, his return is still viewed as a "long shot," Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

.The Los Angeles Chargers are not optimistic about a potential return this year for tight end Hunter Henry (knee), according to a source. The odds of Henry returning from his ACL tear this year are remote, according to a source with knowledge of the situation. It was always a long shot that he would make it back, but the Chargers were holding out hope. It means that they'll have to stick with Antonio Gate and Virgil Green at the position. The aging Gates has 10 catches on 17 targets for 112 yards and a touchdown in six games. He's nothing more than a desperation touchdown-dependant TE2.

Henry ran diagonal sprints with a brace on his right knee Friday, Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times reports. "It's so soon," coach Anthony Lynn said. "I was amazed at how he looked today. He's been doing stuff on the side all along, but today he kind of took it to another level."

.Los Angeles Chargers tight end Hunter Henry (knee) is running diagonal sprints while wearing a knee brace on Friday just four months removed from surgery on his right ACL. Henry must still sit out the first eight weeks of the season, and even then he's not guaranteed to return right after that. It's a good sign that he'll be able to return later this season, but he should be left to the waiver wire in most leagues for now. Veteran Antonio Gates will play limited snaps but is a touchdown-dependent TE2 until Henry returns.

Los Angeles Chargers defensive end Joey Bosa (foot) injured his left foot in practice on Tuesday but was able to walk off the field under his own power. He will undergo further evaluation. Having already lost tight end Hunter Henry (knee) and cornerback Jason Verrett (Achilles) for the season, the Bolts can ill afford to lose their best defensive player. Bosa played a full season in 2017 and had 70 tackles, 12.5 sacks and four forced fumbles. Assuming this injury isn't too serious, Bosa is a high-end IDP pick.

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Hunter Henry (knee) suffered a torn ACL in his knee in practice on Tuesday, which will keep him out for all of the 2018 season. It's a huge loss for the Bolts, as Henry was set to be the main pass-catching tight end in a potentially high-octane offense. Virgil Green should now be No. 1 on the tight end depth chart in LA, but he's known much more for his blocking prowess than his hands. It's possible that the Chargers decide to re-sign veteran Antonio Gates now, although his days as a viable fantasy contributor are in the rearview mirror. Henry's injury likely means LA will use more four-wideout sets this year, which would benefit Tyrell Williams and Travis Benjamin the most.

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Hunter Henry said he is ready to step up as the main pass-catching tight end in 2018 after general manager Tom Telesco confirmed that the Bolts will not re-sign veteran tight end Antonio Gates. "But definitely, I'm ready to step up. … I'm ready to go," Henry said. Henry's 2017 was a bit disappointing, as he caught just 45 passes for 579 yards and four touchdowns, gaining just nine more yards than he did in his rookie season. But with Gates now out of the picture, Henry will see much more playing time and targets from quarterback Philip Rivers, making him a solid TE1 with top-five upside in fantasy.

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Hunter Henry has officially been placed on the season-ending Injured Reserve due to a lacerated kidney. Henry was injured in last week's game with the Chiefs, but the extent of the injury was unknown until the move was made on Tuesday. The young TE had racked up 579 receiving yards and four touchdowns this season, and he had become a regular escape outlet during Philip Rivers' stellar season. With Henry sidelined, future Hall-of-Famer Antonio Gates will likely resume his previous role as the team's primary tight end.

The Los Angeles Chargers placed tight end Hunter Henry (kidney) on Injured Reserve with a small laceration on his kidney. In corresponding moves, the team promoted offensive guard Brett Boyko to the active roster from the practice squad and signed offensive tackle Andrew Wylie to the practice squad. It's a big loss for the Chargers offense as they try to sneak into the playoffs in the final two weeks. Henry had posted 45 catches for 611 yards and four touchdowns in his sophomore season. The loss of Henry is a slight downgrade to quarterback Philip Rivers' value, as the tight end had been his second-best receiver. Veteran Antonio Gates will now have to step up as the main pass-catching back in the final two games of the regular season. Gates is nearing the end and has clearly lost a step, so he's nothing more than a touchdown-dependent TE2 option for fantasy owners.

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Hunter Henry (kidney) has been diagnosed with a small laceration on his kidney, and his status for the final two regular season games is "up in the air." It's a tough blow for the Chargers with their playoff hopes fading by the minute. If Henry is forced to sit out this weekend against the Jets, the veteran Antonio Gates would take on a much bigger workload, but he'd only be a low-end touchdown-dependent streamer. Aside from No. 1 target Keenan Allen, both Tyrell Williams and Travis Benjamin could see more targets in a good matchup.

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Hunter Henry is poised for greatness, but he's surprisingly stuck in too good of a situation. Henry has shown that he's the future at TE in LA, but he's being overshadowed by offensive prowess everywhere else on his own team. Keenan Allen has become an abuser of secondaries far and wide, Melvin Gordon is a sluggish but effective runner that grinds out the yards, Tyrell Williams and Travis Benjamin run fly routes like they're trying out for the Olympic sprint team, and rookies like Mike Williams and Austin Ekeler are licking their chops for more opportunities. Henry's still a great safety blanket for Philip Rivers and still has the "big guy over the middle" role locked down, but fantasy owners should continue to expect that he just isn't going to be a primary target very often anytime soon.

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Hunter Henry (calf) has practiced in full both Wednesday and Thursday and is no longer on the injury report for Week 15 against the Chiefs.

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Hunter Henry (calf) was limited in practice Tuesday. Henry should be just fine for a huge matchup against the division-rival Chiefs on the road in Week 15 on Saturday. He's been a frustrating fantasy play for much of the year, but the Bolts have wised up of late and quarterback Philip Rivers has targeted the young tight end at least five times in each of the last four weeks. Henry's production is trending upwards at the right time for fantasy owners, and he should be an upside TE1 in a solid matchup this weekend.

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Hunter Henry continues to show his versatility as he snagged another touchdown in Week 14. The young tight end has regularly shown that he can be effective all over the field, and he's growing into becoming a solid red-zone threat. His lack of more opportunities is more caused by the wealth of offensive options available to the Chargers than anything he's done. Expect him to continue to grow into one of the top tight ends in the league, but the abundance of offensive weapons on the roster will likely always hurt his production.

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Hunter Henry appears to be fully recovered from the big hits he took against the Browns. As of Wednesday, it was reported that Henry was once again a full participant in practice. Henry was hammered twice by Cleveland's defenders, and the second of the big hits took him out of the game for a play due to a combination of having the wind knocked out of him and slightly hyperextending his knee. With Henry fully ready to go, fantasy owners should expect him to once again be a prime target for LA in the red zone.

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Hunter Henry (knee) is not on the initial Week 14 injury report and will play against the Redskins this Sunday. The Bolts have been using Henry more in the passing game lately, and he caught a season-high seven passes on a season-high nine targets in Week 13.

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Hunter Henry (knee) and rookie wide receiver Mike Williams (knee) will both be limited at practice Wednesday. Williams didn't practice at all last week or play in Week 13, so there's a chance he could suit up in Week 14 against the Redskins, although he won't be a realistic fantasy weapon in the playoffs. Henry isn't in any real danger of missing the game, and his usage has spiked recently, making him a high-upside TE1.
