Small laceration on his kidney
The Los Angeles Chargers announced on Tuesday that tight end Hunter Henry has been placed on the Reserve/Injured list with a small laceration on his kidney. In corresponding moves, the Bolts promoted guard Brett Boyko to the active roster and signed T Andrew Wylie to the practice squad. (Chargers.com)
Nerdy Football Analysis: Henry had become a semi-reliable tight end option over the last month with three TE1 finishes over the last four weeks. In his absence, expect Antonio Gates to increase his snap rate and be a viable low-end TE1 option in Week 16 against the Jets.
