Hunter Henry Injury Update Helps Dolphins’ Upset Bid vs. Patriots

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry suffered a foot injury during Sunday's Week 8 matchup against the Miami Dolphins and was designated as questionable to return. Henry remained on the sideline with his helmet on during the second half but did not immediately re-enter the game. The injury hindered New England's comeback attempt as Miami held a 13-3 halftime lead.

Henry's absence created further difficulties for quarterback Drake Maye and the Patriots' depleted receiving corps, which was already missing receivers Romeo Doubs, A.J. Brown, and Mack Hollins. The Patriots turned to rookie tight end Eli Raridon alongside receivers DeMario Douglas, Efton Chism, and Kyle Williams as Miami sought its second consecutive victory.
