Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson (ankle) was listed as a limited participant in Wednesday's practice. It's a big surprise after Tuesday's report that Henderson suffered a high-ankle sprain in Week 5. That was either an erroneous report, or Henderson has the mildest high-ankle sprain of all time. We'll keep you updated on his status over the next few weeks. At minimum, it looks like he'll avoid a multi-week absence.

Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson suffered a high-ankle sprain in Sunday's win over the Raiders, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports. That's typically a 4- to 6-week injury, although Schefter says Henderson "is regarded as a quick healer, so the Patriots are hoping his return is sooner rather than later." It sounds like Henderson should at least avoid short-term IR, but we'll find out for sure later this week. We'd at least plan on Henderson missing the next 2 games vs. the Jets and Bears. Rhamondre Stevenson will be a borderline RB1 for those contests as New England's workhorse. Corey Kiner will step in as a lightly used No. 2 RB.

Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson is questionable to return to Sunday's game vs. the Raiders with an ankle injury. He carried 4 times for 22 yards and caught his lone target for 16 yards before exiting. We'll update Henderson's status when we know more.

Update: Henderson has been ruled out.

Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Raiders. He was limited in practice all week, and HC Mike Vrabel sounded unsure of Stevenson’s availability for this one multiple times. But Stevenson said Friday that he’s “ready to go.” We’ll look for further updates on his status and get New England’s inactives around 11:30 am ET on Sunday. It’s safe to assume that Stevenson won’t be at 100% if he does suit up for this one. That makes RB TreVeyon Henderson a more intriguing Week 5 fantasy start.

Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson (knee) was limited in Wednesday's practice. He limped off late in last week's win over the Bills, and HC Mike Vrabel would only say before practice today that Stevenson "has a chance" to play against the Raiders on Sunday. Getting on the field early in the week should have him on track to play, but Stevenson's status will be worth monitoring the rest of the week. His absence would turn RB TreVeyon Henderson into a strong fantasy start.

Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson ran 13 times for 47 yards (3.6 yards per carry) and a TD in Sunday's 29-26 win over the Bills. He also caught 3 of 5 targets for 27 yards, which added up to 16.4 PPR points. Stevenson played 50 of the team's 76 snaps (65.8%) and ran 25 routes. He suffered a right knee injury with about a minute left in the game. He walked off the field, so that will need to be monitored this week.

Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson made his season debut against the Steelers in Week 2 after missing Week 1 against the Seahawks due to an ankle injury. The team’s Wednesday game last week gave him a few extra days to recover. Henderson proved effective, rushing 16 times for 76 yards and a TD. That TD came on an explosive 39-yard run that showcased Henderson’s deep speed.

Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson (ankle) put in a full week of practice and is off the final injury report. He’ll make his 2026 debut against the Steelers on Sunday. Henderson was behind RB Rhamondre Stevenson in the pecking order all summer and figures to operate as the No. 2 RB this weekend. Consider him a big-play-dependent RB3 or flex play in fantasy lineups.

Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson (ankle) was a full-go in Wednesday's practice. He's on track to make his 2026 debut vs. the Steelers this weekend. Henderson was behind RB Rhamondre Stevenson on the depth chart before the ankle injury and is likely to return as the No. 2. That leaves him as just a RB3 or flex option in Week 2 fantasy lineups.

Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson (ankle) will practice on Monday, HC Mike Vrabel said. That should put him on track to return for this weekend's game vs. the Steelers after he missed the opener. Henderson was sitting behind RB Rhamondre Stevenson on the depth chart before hurting his ankle and figures to operate as the clear No. 2 at least this week. That'll leave him as just a RB3 or Flex in Week 2 fantasy lineups, but Henderson has the potential to earn more work as we go.

Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson (ankle) is out for Wednesday night's opener vs. the Seahawks. He didn't practice all week, although he did reportedly travel with the team to Seattle. He'll have 10 days to get ready for Week 2's meeting with the Steelers, but we'd consider him no better than 50/50 for that one.

We've gotten plenty of recent indications that the Patriots might miss RB TreVeyon Henderson for Week 1. Sunday provided the first official injury report of the season, and Henderson missed the workout with his ankle injury. We'll get two more days of practice reports before the team puts out game statuses for Wednesday's opener.

Running back TreVeyon Henderson left practice early last Monday with what has been labeled a ‘minor’ ankle injury. But with Mike Reiss reporting that Henderson didn’t practice today, concern is starting to grow that we won’t see him on opening night, which falls on Wednesday for the Patriots. The team will submit its first injury report later today.

Following the right ankle injury TreVeyon Henderson suffered after slipping in last week's practice, he still hasn't been cleared to return to full participation, per Mike Reiss of ESPN. Reiss mentioned that Henderson was present in the locker room today and walking normally.

Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson should be "good to go" for Week 1, a source tells The Boston Globe's Christopher Price. Henderson hurt his right ankle on Monday but avoided a serious injury, according to Price. We haven't moved Henderson in the RB rankings due to the ankle, although he has fallen a few spots this month with consistent reporting that Rhamondre Stevenson will open the season as New England's clear lead back.

Christopher Price of Boston Globe Sports reports that “TreVeyon Henderson is getting some ‘precautionary tests’ done on his right ankle, but is walking and moving fine.” Henderson suffered the lower ankle injury after slipping on the turf in yesterday’s practice.

Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson slipped while cutting on Monday and left practice early. Henderson had been practicing after missing Saturday’s preseason game, but was potentially hurt at some point during practice, according to ESPN’s Mike Reiss. He had his right foot and ankle looked at on the sideline.

Rhamondre Stevenson appears to have the edge over TreVeyon Henderson in the battle atop the depth chart this training camp. Patriots senior reporter Evan Lazar writes that “Stevenson is trending toward being the lead back to start the season. Stevenson has more consistently found holes between the tackles and is getting the bulk of the reps with Maye.” Lazar adds that “Henderson will still have a major role as a change-of-pace back and ideally in the passing game if Henderson can improve in blitz pickup.”

The Boston Sports Journal's Mike Giardi believes the Patriots' "RB pecking order is established," with Rhamondre Stevenson ahead of TreVeyon Henderson. "Stevenson is the between-the-tackles guy, and until proven otherwise, the most reliable back on passing downs," Giardi writes. "That’s not just for his blitz pickup, which is superior to Treveyon Henderson’s, but he’s surehanded and has continued to flash that this summer. ... As for Henderson, I told you I haven’t seen much improvement with his vision and patience, but I don’t have access to practice film."
