Patriots TE Hunter Henry, Bengals OL La'el Collins injured
New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry exited Saturday's game against the visiting Cincinnati Bengals early in the first quarter with a knee injury. Also on Saturday, Bengals offensive tackle La'el Collins exited late in the first quarter with an apparent leg injury. Henry collided with fellow tight end Jonnu Smith on New England's first offensive series of the game and hobbled off the field. He was taken to the locker room and the team said he is questionable to return. Entering Saturday, Henry had 30 receptions for 415 yards and two touchdowns in 14 games this season. He had not yet been targeted on Saturday. Smith is the only other active tight end on New England's depth chart. Henry, 28, has 276 career catches for 3,340 yards and 32 touchdowns in 87 games with the San Diego/Los Angeles Chargers (2016-20) and Patriots. Collins, 29, appeared to get injured after being wrapped up by Patriots defensive tackle Davon Godchaux. Players from both sides motioned to the sideline to get the attention of team trainers, who quickly came out to tend to Collins. Collins was able to walk off the field, but ESPN reported shortly after that he was carted to the locker room. Entering Saturday, Collins had started all 14 of the Bengals' games this season. He is in his first season with Cincinnati after spending the first six of his career with the Dallas Cowboys. --Field Level Media
