Hunter Henry’s reaction on the call

The call was especially crucial during the game. If the 6-yard touchdown was given, then the New England Patriots would’ve broken the 23-23 tie to grab the lead. Without the overturning, the Patriots might have beaten the Vikings.

However, the call came after determining Henry’s loss of control added with debates over the catch itself. The Patriots had to settle for just a field goal. Ultimately, the Minnesota Vikings emerged victorious against New England. After the game, the Patriots tight end did make some comments about the call in the post-game locker room interview.

“I believe I caught it. But they made the call, and just gotta live with it,” said Henry after the game. Subsequently, he admitted to having his hand under the ball. However, he spoke about his respect for the call and that they’ll have to make their peace with it.

After the loss, the Patriots are down 5 losses and are at the end of the table. They will really have to dig deep and play hard if they want to be contenders for the Super Bowl.
