Things are getting more worrisome regarding Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson as he hasn’t practiced since sustaining his ankle injury on August 24.  The regular season starts Wednesday and it’s possible Henderson misses Week 1, and maybe even more, as we don’t know the severity of this injury.

Fantasy managers should temper expectations for Henderson and have a back-up plan if he misses time. When healthy, Henderson offers league-winning upside, which has been baked into his relatively speculative ADP all offseason.

On the flip side, fantasy gamers can more confidently draft Rhamondre Stevenson and fire him up at value for Week 1. He is PlayerProfiler’s RB27 for redraft fantasy football leagues and rising.
