Trip home leads to scary discovery for journeyman tight end Mitchell Henry (Shutdown Corner)

When he was cut from the Baltimore Ravens’ practice squad last month, tight end Mitchell Henry was told to stick close to the city, because the Ravens intended to re-sign him a week later.

But Henry, an undrafted free agent out of Western Kentucky in 2015, wanted to go home to Kentucky for some time with his wife and a hunting trip with his father.

While he was there, however, Henry felt pain in his shoulder and went to the hospital. What doctors found was far more than a rotator cuff or a fracture in his scapula, or shoulder blade bone.
