At 6-foot-5, and with six receptions over the game’s first quarter-and-a-half, Hunter Henry had quickly become a must-watch for the opposition’s defense; fortunately, the New England Patriots knew just how to creatively spring him free once more. Pairing his teammate’s orbit motion with a deceptive blocking stance of his own, the veteran tight end drifted backwards slightly, catching a wide-open screen pass that propelled a 35-yard catch-and-run down the right sideline. Henry, No. 1 among tight ends in target share through two weeks, was brilliant in the 23-20 overtime loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Sept. 15, 2024, dominating through eight receptions (on 12 targets) and 109 yards.
