TreVeyon Henderson‘s 2026 Fantasy Football season debut will have to wait at least a week, as the Patriots have officially ruled him out for tomorrow’s season opener against the Seahawks. Opening the season on Wednesday instead of Sunday made it more of a longshot for TreVeyon to be ready. Rhamondre Stevenson will get the bulk of the work vs the Seahawks and Corey Kiner should mix in a little behind Rhamondre.
TreVeyon Henderson is PlayerProfiler’s RB22 in redraft rankings, while backfield mate Rhamondre Stevenson is PlayerProfiler’s RB29 in redraft rankings – which could rise up if TreVeyon is out a bit longer. It has been 15 days since TreVeyon hurt his ankle and he has not practiced since, so there’s a chance that this was a high ankle sprain – which could keep him out additional weeks. The Patriots have 11 days between their Week 1 and Week 2 contests, so while it will give TreVeyon more time to be ready for Week 2, we’ll have to keep an eye on the practice reports next week to get a better idea of where he stands.

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.
