Even though he’s been with the New England Patriots for less than a week, the new “Hunter Henry” acquisitions are already saying the right thing.
In his first comments since signing a three-year, $ 37.5 million contract with the Patriots, he offered a little understanding of his mindset and the kind of work ethic he will bring to the table.
His position partner Jonnu Smith noted earlier this week that he has a high work ethic. From his sounds, Henry brings to the table a working mentality, focused on football.
“First of all, I like football. I’m a guy who will give everything I can every week. Scratch yourself, guide yourself, fight and be tough, ”Henry told Megan O’Brien for Patriots.com. “I just want to win. This is my biggest thing. Anything is needed to win. If that blocks a week or just being really tenacious in the game, whatever you need to win, I don’t care what it takes, that’s what I want. ”
With New England looking to get a spark out of the tight end position, Henry might just be the guy to do it. He could be an important part of the passing attack in New England and the revitalization of the tight end position.
