  • Played in all 13 games (173 Total Snaps)
  • Versatile player who played both Center/Guard
  • Season high 32 snaps in win over NC A&T

2015 Recap: In 2014 & 2015, Brad Henson primarily spent most of his time on special teams, although he did play in a career-high 173 snaps. Out of high school he was the number 13 guard in the country, according to CBSSports.com. In 2016, Brad Henson will be filling the shoes of Landon Turner, a first-team All-American. Look for Henson to be anchored by the veterans around him, and for the Heels to pickup where they left off in 2015 without missing a beat.
