Michael Hoomanawanui having strong camp

Michael Hoomanawanui isn’t going to suddenly blossom into a tight end who can catch 40 balls a season. After all, he only has 40 receptions through his first five seasons, including 20 in three years with the Pats. But Hoomanawanui does have some good hands when called upon, and he has reminded his teammates of that in recent practices. The tight end caught eight passes from Brady in the last five practices after just a single reception in the team’s first four practices. Hoomanawanui also had five catches on Jimmy Garoppolo passes in the last three days. (Boston Herald)
Fantasy Impact:
Michael Hoomanawanui is currently third on the depth chart behind Rob Gronkowski and Scott Chandler at tight end. Both players have been known to get injured so unless the Patriots pick up another tight end, "Hooman" should see plenty of time on the field this year. As it currently stands he will not see enough targets to be fantasy relevant but if injuries occur he could be a pick up in deeper leagues.
