The Los Angeles Chargers would like to work out a multi-year deal with tight end Hunter Henry, who is set to be a free agent. But they are more than likely willing to franchise tag him, according to NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport.
The franchise tag would pay Henry a little over $11 million in 2020, per Over the Cap. That would be a significant increase in pay on his $1.2 million base salary for 2019.
When healthy, he is easily one of the league’s top tight ends. He’s averaging 8.9 yards per target and has 17 touchdowns in 41 games. Along with his impressive skillset as a pass-catcher, Henry has been a reliable run-blocker.

Hunter Henry appears to be off the market. That sucks, he seemed to be the better pass catcher btw Hooper but probably not as good of a blocker but still a good blocker.
