Patriots running back TreVeyon Henderson has a high ankle sprain that is expected to shelve him for multiple games, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. He is listed as questionable for Sunday’s home game against the Jets.

What happened

Henderson confirmed the sprain on Friday and was limited in practice this week, per Mike Reiss of ESPN. Schefter adds that surgery will not be required and an injured reserve stint may not be necessary.

Context

Through four games, Henderson has 42 carries for 163 rushing yards and one touchdown, with two catches for 22 yards on four targets. He missed Week 1 with a different ankle injury. Rhamondre Stevenson leads New England’s backfield with 57 carries for 227 yards and two scores, plus 15 receptions for 111 yards, in five games.

If Henderson cannot go, the Patriots will elevate Lan Larison from the practice squad to join Stevenson and Corey Kiner, Reiss relays.

Depth chart

Stevenson is the clear RB1 in New England, averaging 12.2 PPR points per game. Kiner has 20 carries for 81 yards and two catches for 16 yards this season.

What’s next

The Patriots host the New York Jets on Sunday, October 18. Henderson is questionable, and RapSheet reports he is likely to play against the Jets.

#Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson (ankle) and LT Will Campbell (ankle), both of whom are questionable, are likely to play against the #Jets, sources say. With AJ Brown returning, NE is close to full health.

🏈 Fantasy impact

Henderson’s availability for Week 6 is genuinely uncertain despite reports he is likely to play — Schefter expects multiple games missed, which conflicts with RapSheet’s more optimistic outlook. If he suits up, his ankle may limit his usual workload, making him a risky flex at his 5.9 PPR projection. Stevenson remains a strong start either way and could absorb extra touches if Henderson is out, boosting his already solid 15.0 projected points. Kiner would see a slight uptick as the RB2, but he has only 1.9 PPR points per game and isn’t a reliable streaming option. Larison’s potential elevation from the practice squad adds another layer of uncertainty — monitor inactives before kickoff. Henderson’s rest-of-season value takes a hit if he misses time; prioritize waiver adds accordingly.
