New England Patriots running back TreVeyon Henderson faces an uncertain career path after being placed on injured reserve with an unexpected medical emergency involving unexplained neurological symptoms.
- Henderson will miss a minimum of four games, leaving a heavy workload available for the remainder of the Patriots backfield in fantasy football leagues.
Henderson has already missed the New England Patriots’ last two games. The second-year running back will now miss at least four more fixtures following his placement on injured reserve.
Henderson released a public statement detailing the medical condition preventing him from taking the field. He explained that he is managing an unexpected and unusual medical emergency involving a series of unexplained neurological symptoms that required hospitalization for several days.

The condition directly impacted his physical ability on the gridiron. Over six games this season, Henderson has rushed for 203 yards and one touchdown.
Henderson entered the league as a second-round draft pick in 2025.
That selection followed a standout collegiate career at Ohio State. Henderson totaled 3,761 rushing yards over four seasons with the Buckeyes and helped the program win the 2024 College Football Playoff national championship as a senior.
Expectations dictated that the young runner would step in and immediately impact the New England offense on the ground and through the air. Instead, his immediate playing future remains clouded in doubt.
Henderson could miss more time than the mandatory four-week minimum outlined by league rules, as team officials have confirmed he currently holds no concrete timetable for a return.
