Reiss: New England's Hunter Henry 'has been Mac Jones' go-to-guy' in the red zone
According to Mike Reiss, New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry has been utilized in the red zone during full pad periods.
What It Means:
Per Reiss, Henry has displayed a unique rapport with quarterback Mac Jones especially after he made two big catches in the red zone in recent practices. While Mike Gesicki will likely be used in a receiving wide role out wide, expect Henry to remain in a full time in-line and a sneaky late round value in a potentially revamped offense until offensive coordinator Bill O'Brien.
According to numberFire's models, Henry is currently ranked as our TE26 with projections including 36.9 receptions for 412.3 yards and 3.0 touchdowns on 56.2 targets.
