The New England Patriots signed tight end Hunter Henry to a three-year deal on Friday. The contract figures were made available, as reported by the Boston Herald’s Doug Kyed.
Henry will receive a $27 million base salary, with a $30 million max value and $16 million fully guaranteed.
Henry has been a consistent presence in the Patriots’ passing game over the last three seasons. He was productive last season, despite inconsistencies in the passing game overall. He tallied 42 catches for 419 yards and six touchdowns.
The touchdowns were his most since the 2021 season, when he joined the Patriots as a free agent.

The Patriots had zero tight ends under contract prior to Henry signing. This move gives them a guaranteed playmaker at a position that has been crucial for the offense over the years.
