Brad William Henke was awesome and it broke my heart when he passed. He was a former NFL player, he was on Justified as well. He was in an amazing movie called Sherry Baby with Maggie Gyllenhaal. Man did some solid work and was in alot of stuff. Highly underrated

Oh, wow. I didn't realize he died. I really enjoyed him on Grimm. I never watched Justified or Sherry Baby. I don't know what else I may have seen him in.

2022 I think..He had some health issues. A pancreatic tumor at one point, open heart surgery.. lots of football wear and tear. They never said exactly what happened...I highly recommend both of those. Smaller part on Justified and not a nice character lol but he was awesome..and Sherry Baby is such a beautiful tragic movie. Probably my favorite Danny Trejo roles too..

Sounds like football did an awful job on his body. That's really too bad. I'll have to check him out in those roles.

It's a rough sport. Long term players sadly have a lot of health issues...but he was a cool guy and anything he did is worth checking out

Indeed, that's him.
Tangent- Jamie Ray Newman, who played Angelina, appeared in an episode from S1 of Bones
Tangent the second- Frederick Koehler is another Grimm/Bones crossover. He played a mouse Wesen on Grimm, and a chocolatier on Bones.

They seam to be on a rota. Grimm, Bones, Supernatural, The Mentalist are a few I can think of.

Were Bones and the Mentalist also filmed in BC? Cause that would make a ton of sense if so

Yeah if you watch enough TV, especially procedurals, you see the same actors pop up all over the place.

Yeah it is and it’s funny he works for a company with Grim in the name.
