Henry is still expected to be a key part of the Patriots offense this season, Mark Daniels of MassLive.com reports.
The Patriots made several splash moves this offseason, including the additions of A.J. Brown and Romeo Doubs, that have garnered most of the headlines. Henry, though, is going to be a staple. The veteran has caught 60-or-more passes from Drake Maye in each of the last two seasons. Daniels notes that Henry is particularly crucial due to the lack of experienced options behind him on the depth chart. Rookie Eli Raridon and journeyman Cameron Latu are the next two options for the Patriots at tight end.
