Bill Belichick shared Wednesday that he’s watched Los Angeles Chargers tight end Hunter Henry compete ever since Henry was a high school standout at Pulaski Academy in Little Rock, Arkansas.
Henry played for Kevin Kelley, who has won eight state titles and is also a friend of Belichick’s. According to Mark Daniels of The Providence Journal, Kelley came to Gillette Stadium last year to talk to the Patriots.
“Coach Kelley’s probably the top high school coach in the country and certainly has been one of the great coaches in Arkansas high school football history,” Belichick said.
