Henry (foot) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Packers, Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald reports.

Brown (knee/ankle) and Romeo Doubs (IR, shoulder).

If the veteran tight end is unable to practice in at least some capacity Friday, he'll likely be ruled out for Sunday's game against the Packers, paving the way for rookie third-round pick Eli Raridon to take on an expanded role.

Patriots' Hunter Henry: Status uncertain for Week 9
Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel said Monday that he had no update on Henry's (foot) status heading into Sunday's game against the Packers, Karen Guregian of MassLive.com reports. "I don't have any expectations yet," Vrabel said of Henry. "It's kind of how he responds here. He wasn't able to finish the [Week 8] game. So we'll see where he is, and I know Hunter will do everything he can to get back to help us."
Henry recorded three receptions for 30 yards on three targets before exiting in the second quarter of Sunday's 24-19 win over the Dolphins due to the foot issue. The Patriots haven't provided any further word on where exactly Henry stands in his recovery, but more context on that front should arrive when the team releases its first Week 9 injury report Wednesday. Despite his early departure in Week 8, Henry leads the team in receptions (29) and is second to only wideout DeMario Douglas in receiving yards (326) through eight games.

Patriots' Hunter Henry: Scores again in Week 6 win
Henry caught four of five targets for 48 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-19 win over the Jets.
Henry's seven-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter proved to be the game-winning score, putting New England ahead 23-16. After not finding the end zone the first four weeks of the season, Henry has scored in back-to-back games. The veteran tight end has shown no ceiling, as he's been held under 50 yards receiving in five of six contests. He's the definition of a touchdown-or-bust fantasy bet ahead of Thursday's game with the Bears.

Patriots' Hunter Henry: Season-high 62 receiving yards in win
Henry finished with five receptions for 62 yards on five targets in Sunday's 29-26 win over the Bills.
The catch and yardage totals were season-best marks for Henry, who took the field for 49 of the Patriots' 76 offensive snaps (64.5 percent). With fellow tight end Eli Raridon (ankle) making an early exit from the contest and potentially at risk of missing the Patriots' Week 5 game against the Raiders, Henry could be called upon to handle a heftier workload next Sunday.

Patriots' Hunter Henry: Only one catch in blowout loss
Henry caught one pass on two targets for five yards during the Patriots' 35-6 loss to the Jaguars on Sunday.
The Patriots offense struggled as a whole Sunday, with Drake Maye completing 14 of 25 passes (8.0 YPC) for 199 yards and two interceptions. Even with A.J. Brown (ankle, IR) sidelined for the last two weeks, Henry has logged just four catches for 45 yards on seven targets, and he's well behind pace to match his 60-768-7 receiving line (on 87 targets) across 17 regular-season games in 2025. Up next is a Week 4 road tilt against the Bills, whose defense held Chargers tight end Oronde Gadsden catchless on three targets in a Week 3 win for Buffalo.
