By September 6, Henderson’s availability for the team’s season opener against the Seattle Seahawks remained uncertain. While head coach Mike Vrabel described Henderson as “day-to-day,” he had not practiced since the initial injury. Medical experts expressed concern regarding his recovery timeline. If Henderson is unable to play, Rhamondre Stevenson is expected to assume primary rushing duties. On September 8, the Patriots officially ruled Henderson out for the season opener against the Seahawks. He has remained unable to practice since the August 24 injury to his right ankle.
