Chargers HC Anthony Lynn announced Thursday that they’ve placed TE Hunter Henry on the COVID-19 list.
The COVID-19 list was created this summer for a player who either tests positive for or who has been quarantined after having been in close contact with an infected person or persons.
Players will remain on the list until they are medically cleared to return.
Henry, 26, is a former second-round pick of the Chargers back in 2016. He just finished his four-year, $6.38 million contract that included $3.98 million guaranteed and made a base salary of $1.32 million over the final year of the agreement.
Henry is playing out the 2020 season under the franchise tag worth $10.6 million. He’ll be an unrestricted free agent in 2021.
In 2020, Henry has appeared in 14 games for the Chargers and caught 60 passes for 613 yards and four touchdowns.
We have him included in our Top 50 – 2021 Free Agents list.
