Will Campbell, TreVeyon Henderson injury update: 'likely' to play Week 6 vs. Jets

Two Patriots are trending toward playing in Week 6 against the New York Jets, per Ian Rapoport.

By Cole Hartwell

New England Patriots offensive tackle Will Campbell and running back TreVeyon Henderson are considered “likely” to play in Sunday’s game against the New York Jets, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Both players entered the weekend listed as questionable.

What happened

Campbell (knee) and Henderson (ankle) participated in practice throughout the week. Rapoport was first to report the news.

Henderson, 23, left last week’s win over the Las Vegas Raiders in the second quarter and did not return. Initial reports indicated he might miss “multiple weeks” with a high ankle sprain, but he was back on the practice fields on Wednesday.

Campbell, 22, was hurt two plays after Henderson. He exited to the locker room and, despite briefly returning to the sideline, never reentered the contest. Initial fears that he might “miss some time” due to a knee sprain did not turn out to be true; he also was back at practice on Wednesday and available all three days.

Context

Henderson has played four games for the Patriots this season, totaling 26.5 PPR points on 42 carries for 163 rushing yards and one rushing touchdown. He has also caught two passes for 22 yards. His season snap share is 36 percent. In Week 5 against the Raiders, Henderson had four carries for 22 yards and one reception for 16 yards on 16 percent of snaps.

Campbell does not have player data in Sleeper’s database.

What’s next

The Patriots host the New York Jets on Sunday, October 18 at Gillette Stadium. Whether Campbell and Henderson will handle a full workload remains to be seen, per the report. Last week, the team turned to running back Corey Kiner and offensive tackle Caleb Lomu as replacements.

🏈 Fantasy impact

Henderson’s likely return is a modest boost for the Patriots’ backfield, but he remains a low-value fantasy option. He is the RB2 on the depth chart and is projected for only 5.9 PPR points in Week 6. In his last game, he managed just 4.8 PPR points on limited touches. Given his ankle injury and uncertain workload, Henderson is best left on the bench or waiver wire in most formats. The bigger beneficiary may be the Patriots’ offensive line: with Campbell back at left tackle, the offense should get a boost, which could help the entire skill group, including running back Corey Kiner if Henderson is limited.
