Hooper (neck) has been removed from the Patriots' Week 12 injury report. Hooper was limited at practice Wednesday, but with his removal from the injury report a day later, the tight end has been cleared to face Miami on Sunday. Though Hooper works in a time share that favors fellow TE Hunter Henry, he's recorded 3-4 catches in four of his last five contests, a pace that puts him on the radar in deeper formats, especially with six teams on bye this week.

Hooper was a limited participant at practice Wednesday due to a neck injury, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports. Hooper is tending to an injury after playing 39 of the Patriots' 76 snaps on offense in this past Sunday's 28-22 loss to the Rams. The tight end now has two more opportunities to practice fully before the Patriots assign their Week 12 injury designations Friday.

Hooper, who logged 39 of a possible 76 snaps on offense in Sunday's 28-22 loss to the Rams, per Mike Reiss of ESPN.com, caught all four of his targets in the contest for 35 yards. After a quiet Week 10, fellow tight end Hunter Henry (67 snaps) bounced back by catching six of his nine targets in the contest for 63 yards. While working behind Henry, Hooper carries modest fantasy upside, but he is at least involved enough in the Patriots' offense to merit lineup consideration in deeper TE-heavy formats.

Hooper caught three of four targets for 64 yards in Sunday's 19-3 win over the Bears. For the third time in the last four games, Hooper caught at least three passes, and this time he turned the volume into a team high in receiving yards on the afternoon, and a season high for himself. The veteran tight end is still behind Hunter Henry on the Patriots' depth chart, but Hooper's 11-119-0 line on 14 targets over the last four games and steady role in the offense might give him some deep-league fantasy appeal in TE premium formats heading into a Week 11 clash with the Rams.

Hooper logged 27 of a possible 69 snaps on offense in Sunday's 20-17 overtime loss to the Titans, en route to catching his only target for eight yards, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports. Meanwhile, Hunter Henry (60 snaps) caught seven of his eight targets in the contest for 56 yards. While firmly behind Henry in usage at tight end, Hooper is off the fantasy radar in all but the deepest of formats.
