“I want to play somewhere there’s a good quarterback,” Henry stated. “That’s huge for our position. It makes things a lot easier.”

Henry, that played on the franchise business tag last period, is perhaps the leading limited end readily available in free company with Rob Gronkowski indicating his need to return to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

In 14 video games in 2014, Henry captured 60 masquerade 613 backyards and also 4 goals– the 4th period with 4 or even more ratings in his occupation. Now he prepares to money in however isn’t eliminating a return to Los Angeles.

“I’ve really enjoyed my time here, so I’m not going to ever rule that out, you know, with a young quarterback, me and Justin [Herbert] have formed a relationship,” Henry stated “But I think I’m open to whatever, and I think I kind of have to, in a way, but I really enjoyed my time and if that continues, I’ll be excited. If that doesn’t, then that would be a new step and a new place to kind of start again.”

It would certainly be absurd for Henry not to take into consideration playing in other places after going into the offseason as the most effective choice amongst freelances in his placement team.

Spotrac tasks Henry’s market price at $10.9 million annually, which would certainly make him the third-highest paid limited end behind George Kittle and alsoTravis Kelce

Whether or otherwise Henry would certainly take a price cut to partner with a leading QB stays to be seen. Considering the Chargers have virtually $34 million in cap room, Henry might equally as conveniently make a decision to continue to be in L.A. and also assist proceed Hebert’s growth right into an elite QB of his very own right.
