Patriots' TreVeyon Henderson: Not available for Week 8
Rotowire
Henderson (illness) has been downgraded from questionable to out for Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Ian Rapoport of ESPN and NFL Network reports.
Henderson was given the questionable tag for Week 8 despite missing the last two practices due to an illness. He won't travel with the team to Miami, so the Patriots' backfield will be led by Rhamondre Stevenson while Corey Kiner provides depth. Henderson's next opportunity to suit up is Week 9 against the Packers on Sunday, Nov. 8.

Patriots' TreVeyon Henderson: Questionable for Week 8
Rotowire
Henderson (illness) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Dolphins.
Henderson logged DNPs on Thursday and Friday and appears to be in danger of missing Sunday's juicy matchup with Miami. His role has been shrinking of late anyway, and if Henderson misses this week's game, Rhamondre Stevenson and Corey Kiner will handle the backfield work for New England.

Patriots' TreVeyon Henderson: Not practicing Friday
Rotowire
Henderson (illness) isn't practicing Friday, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.
After missing back-to-back practices, Henderson has two days to get healthy before the Patriots face the Dolphins on Sunday at 1:00 p.m. ET. An absence would improve the workload projections for Rhamondre Stevenson and Corey Kiner in a favorable matchup, though Henderson got just five touches in a 30-24 loss to the Bears last week.

Patriots' TreVeyon Henderson: Sits Thursday due to illness
Rotowire
Henderson (illness) did not practice Thursday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
Henderson will try to shed his illness and return to practice Friday. If he's unable to practice without limitations Friday, the 2025 second-round pick would likely take an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Dolphins. Henderson has struggled to earn playing time in recent weeks, splitting change-of-pace work behind Rhamondre Stevenson with Corey Kiner.

Patriots' TreVeyon Henderson: Missing from practice due to ankle issue
Rotowire
Henderson wasn't on the field for Thursday's practice due to an ankle injury, Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald reports.
Though the Patriots left him off their initial Week 8 injury report released Wednesday, Henderson may be dealing with an aggravation of the ankle he previously sprained in a Week 5 win over the Raiders. Since then, Henderson has been able to suit up in both of the team's last two contests, but he's played limited snaps behind starter Rhamondre Stevenson. In an effort to get the ball in Henderson's hands more frequently, head coach Mike Vrabel told Kyed on Tuesday that the second-year back could get more involved on kickoff returns, though that plan could be put on hold while Henderson is nursing an injury.

Patriots' TreVeyon Henderson: Minimal role in Week 7 loss
Rotowire
Henderson rushed three times for nine yards and secured both targets for 14 yards in the Patriots' 30-24 loss to the Bears on Thursday.
Henderson's modest numbers underscore how modest a role he filled in the high-scoring loss. Rhamondre Stevenson had just six carries in his own right, but he also recorded a team-high 93 receiving yards on five catches. Henderson's rush attempts and rushing yards were both season lows, and the second-year back will look to bounce back in a Week 8 road matchup against the Dolphins on Sunday, Nov. 1.

Patriots' TreVeyon Henderson: Plays through ankle sprain
Rotowire
Henderson (ankle) rushed seven times for 31 yards and brought in his only target for nine yards in the Patriots' 26-19 win over the Jets on Sunday. He also lost a fumble.
Henderson beat the odds by suiting up for Sunday's contest despite what has been reported to be a high-ankle sprain. He was just five yards short of backfield mate Rhamondre Stevenson's rushing yardage despite seeing half of his carry total, but Henderson's mid-third-quarter fumble did lead to a Jets field goal. Henderson now has a quick turnaround for a Week 7 road matchup against the Bears on Thursday night, so it would appear likely he'd slot into a complementary role again for that contest.

Patriots' TreVeyon Henderson: Active Sunday
Rotowire
Henderson (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Jets.
Henderson emerged from a Week 5 win versus the Raiders with an apparent right high-ankle sprain, which typically requires a multi-week recovery. For this particular injury, though, he was able to log three consecutive limited practices this week, receive a questionable designation and then tell Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald on Friday that he's "hoping to play." Ian Rapoport of NFL Network then reported Sunday morning that Henderson is likely to suit up, which now has been confirmed. Even though he's active, the Patriots could lean more on Rhamondre Stevenson and Corey Kiner as the healthier options out of the backfield, but Henderson nonetheless has averaged 11 touches per game in his four appearances this season.

Patriots' TreVeyon Henderson: Likely to suit up Sunday
Rotowire
Henderson (ankle), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jets, is likely to suit up, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Henderson has gone from likely to miss multiple games to having a chance to play just one week removed from suffering an apparent right high-ankle sprain last Sunday against the Raiders. Via the running back himself Friday, he is "hoping to play" in Week 6, per Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald, but Henderson likely will be subject to a pregame workout Sunday before a decision is made ahead of inactives dropping at 11:30 a.m. ET. If Henderson is active, he'll join Rhamondre Stevenson and Corey Kiner out of the Patriots backfield, though in what capacity remains to be seen.

Patriots' TreVeyon Henderson: Hopes to play Sunday
Rotowire
Henderson said Friday that an MRI revealed he sustained a high-ankle sprain but that he is "hoping to play" Sunday against the Jets, Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald reports.
It was reported earlier in the week that Henderson was facing a multi-week absence due to a high-ankle sprain, and while he was indeed diagnosed with the more severe ankle issue, he was able to practice this week and will have a chance to take the field in Week 6.

Patriots' TreVeyon Henderson: Practicing Friday
Rotowire
Henderson (ankle) is practicing Friday, Mark Daniels of MassLive reports.
After opening Week 6 prep with back-to-back limited sessions, Henderson is participating for a third straight day. Reports earlier this week suggested he would miss multiple games, but it now appears he has a chance to avoid any absences altogether. New England's final injury report will provide a better idea of where Henderson stands ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Jets.

Patriots' TreVeyon Henderson: Limited again Thursday
Rotowire
Henderson (ankle) remained limited at Thursday's practice, Mark Daniels of MassLive reports.
Henderson has been limited in back-to-back practice sessions to kick off Week 6 prep. He'll likely need to upgrade to full participation Friday to avoid carrying an injury designation into Sunday's home game against the Jets, in which second place in the AFC East will be on the line. Corey Kiner would be in line for change-of-pace work behind Rhamondre Stevenson if Henderson sits.

Patriots' TreVeyon Henderson: Set to practice in pads Thursday
Rotowire
Henderson (ankle) is in pads ahead of Thursday's practice, Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald reports.
Henderson was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice, and he looks poised to practice in some capacity again Thursday, though the extent of his participation remains to bee seen. After initial pessimism following his exit from the Week 5 win over the Raiders, Henderson seemingly has a chance to suit up Sunday against the Jets without missing any additional game action.
Patriots' TreVeyon Henderson: Surprise practice participant Wednesday
Rotowire
The Patriots listed Henderson (ankle) as a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
After Henderson was diagnosed with a right high-ankle sprain coming out of Sunday's win over the Raiders, Adam Schefter of ESPN reported Tuesday that the second-year running back would avoid surgery but was expected to miss multiple weeks. While that could still be the case, Henderson's involvement in practice Wednesday -- albeit in a limited capacity -- suggests that the Patriots haven't yet ruled him out from playing Week 6 against the Jets. However, in the more likely event that Henderson ends up sitting out this Sunday, Rhamondre Stevenson would be in store for a larger share of the touches out of the backfield, while Corey Kiner would serve as the top complement to Stevenson.

Patriots' TreVeyon Henderson: Absent for first Week 6 practice
Rotowire
Henderson (ankle) isn't participating in Wednesday's practice, Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald reports.
Henderson's absence hardly comes as a surprise after Adam Schefter of ESPN reported that the running back is likely to miss multiple weeks after sustaining a right high-ankle sprain during this past Sunday's win over the Raiders. Head coach Mike Vrabel has yet to provide an updated timeline for Henderson's return, but the 23-year-old is expected to be officially ruled out for this Sunday's game against the Jets following Friday's practice.
Patriots' TreVeyon Henderson: Out multiple weeks with high-ankle sprain
Rotowire
Henderson is expected to miss multiple weeks after he was diagnosed with a right high-ankle sprain following an MRI on Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Henderson sustained the injury in the second quarter of Sunday's 45-17 win over the Raiders and was unable to return. Schefter notes that Henderson won't need surgery to address the ankle sprain, so the running back may be able to avoid a stint on injured reserve and the automatic four-game absence that comes with it. Even so, Henderson still looks poised to be sidelined for at least a couple of contests, which will clear the way for Rhamondre Stevenson to take on a heightened role out of the backfield. Corey Kiner will also be in line for increased snaps as the top change-of-pace option behind Stevenson while Henderson is out of the mix.
