The Facts: Henry's future with the Chargers is only visible for one lucrative season, at least on paper. Henry will play on the franchise tag in 2020.

Diehards Line: Henry and the Chargers did not come to an agreement on a multi-year contract before Wednesday's deadline. That being the case, the Chargers will keep a promising player for one more year to find out if he's really worth extending long term. Henry missed the entire 2018 season due to a torn ACL suffered in the offseason, and he missed four games in 2019 with a fractured knee cap. The promise remains even with the injury concerns, though, which is why the Chargers tagged the tight end who caught a career-high 55 passes for 652 yards (another career high) and five touchdowns in just 12 games last season. Another good season would strengthen his place as an important player to the Chargers' future. A good season that's also a healthy one might just cement it. Meanwhile, Henry will have a one-year base salary of $10.6 million, which currently ranks No. 1 among tight ends in annual average.
