"Henry is the only player left on the roster from the massive 2021 free agency haul, and one of three players left from that offseason's additions, including the draft that featured Christian Barmore and Rhamondre Stevenson. Even in their darkest days, Henry has been a reliable target for his revolving door of quarterbacks: from Mac Jones and Bailey Zappe to Jacoby Brissett and Drake Maye."
"Josh McDaniels is now in his second stint as the offensive coordinator with Henry as his tight end, and he continues to perform. His inaugural season with New England saw him catch 50 balls for 603 yards and nine touchdowns. This season, he has 41 catches for 537 yards and five touchdowns in 12 games. On pace for 760 yards, it would be a career year."
"Henry inked a three-year deal worth $12.5 million a season back in '21 after four years with the Chargers. While the 2021 class brought mixed results, he was one of the bright spots right away, being a safety blanket for Mac Jones as a rookie. He remained a contributor for the next few seasons, but this season has been a perfect seam target for Maye."
Hunter Henry is the only remaining player from New England’s 2021 free-agent class and one of three holdovers from that offseason’s additions, including Christian Barmore and Rhamondre Stevenson. He has been a consistent receiving option through multiple quarterbacks — Mac Jones, Bailey Zappe, Jacoby Brissett and Drake Maye — and has finished among the team’s top three in receiving yards each year since 2021. Henry’s New England debut produced 50 catches for 603 yards and nine touchdowns. This season he has 41 catches for 537 yards and five touchdowns in 12 games, on pace for a 760-yard career high. He signed a three-year, $12.5 million-per-season deal in 2021 after four seasons with the Chargers.
