Don't know much about him, but probably a camp body with Hunter currently being out.

@PatsFan2 this signing does probably push your boy Keene down on depth chart now...his likelihood of making the team is decreasing by the minute

 

[Kontradiction]

Effective pass catcher at A&M, but he’s… pretty bad… at run blocking and in pass pro. He also posted some horrific numbers during the draft process. Camp fodder.

EDIT: @ashley1992 beat me to it.

Todd McShay had him 21st overall in his 2022 mock draft in May 2021. There was thought to be a lot of talent there, but if those workout numbers are accurate then there’s really no hope for him.

He's gonna go 3 catches, 43 yards, 1 TD in the 4th quarter of the final preseason game and people are going to insist he won't make it through waivers.

He just needs the right system. He has potential to go beast mode. Not sure how and why he is available but I watched all of A&M games and I rated him highly. Hope he can learn and stick around.

Maybe BGC will jump in on this one and give us some info re his thoughts

He’s available because he has Tank Ass Syndrome.

"Is it time to trade Henry!?"

Not to brag, but at my advanced age I can still best this guy in several of these categories. Also, if I identified as a female teenager I would be an all-star on my daughter's 16u softball team.

That's what I'm saying.

Weight seems ok (would be my highlight as well).

I think we have a keeper here in Jalen Wydemeyer and a goner in Keene long overdue like a library book if you ask me.

Jonnu Smith 2.0 he definitely looks like the move type.

Patriots apparently dodge bullet with Hunter Henry injury

The New England Patriots have dodged a bullet with the latest injury to tight end Hunter Henry, based on the latest report.

He never put it together besides occasional flashes. Got by on size and strength for a while. Technique never caught up. I doubt he could ever be a true primary weapon bc it takes him a minute to get going. Effort and size are there in blocking but really no idea what he's doing.

Also I can't imagine testing that bad and actually putting it on paper. These guys perform these drills for years, even before HS. They're well aware of what they can do. Simply don't do the drills, say you're hurt. Teams will never get those #'s out of their head.

 

[Zuma]

IMO best case scenario he’s similar to Hooman.
