This is a big loss for the Patriots since Henry is one of their best playmakers. He finished last Sunday’s game against the Kansas City Chiefs with seven receptions for 66 yards and a touchdown.
For the season, Henry has 42 receptions for 419 yards and six touchdowns.
With Henry out, the Patriots will have to rely on Mike Gesicki and Pharaoh Brown at tight end.
The Patriots come into this game with a 3-11 record while the Broncos are 7-7 and are fighting for a playoff spot in the AFC.
Kickoff will be at 8:15 p.m. ET and it’ll be nationally televised by NFL Network.
