TreVeyon Henderson's Dynasty Outlook Clouded By Split Backfield in New England
The 38th overall selection in the 2025 NFL Draft, New England Patriots running back TreVeyon Henderson routinely flashed high-end upside in his first NFL season on his way to a third-place finish in the AP Offensive Rookie of the Year award voting. Across 17 games, Henderson recorded 1,132 yards from scrimmage and 10 touchdowns on 215 touches. However, Henderson failed to fully seize the Patriots' backfield from veteran running back Rhamondre Stevenson, who finished the year with 948 yards from scrimmage and nine touchdowns on 162 touches across 14 games. Stevenson also dominated backfield work during the Patriots' postseason run, out-touching Henderson 70 to 35. While Henderson could see his role expand in his second year, concerns about his ability to be a consistent between-the-tackles runner could hold him back from a true RB1 workload. Henderson remains a high-upside dynasty running back, but his week-to-week production could remain inconsistent as long as Stevenson is healthy
