Henderson has struggled with pass protection, which is one reason his snap count has fluctuated. While he has been far more sure-handed than the fumble-prone Stevenson, the coaching staff clearly does not trust him.<\/p>\n<p>Henderson has gained 121 yards on 32 attempts, and has 15 catches for 90 yards. For an offense that ranks 27th in rushing yards, he\u2019s been run-of-the-mill. But now, the injury to Stevenson\u2019s primary backup, Antonio Gibson\u2013out with an ACL tear suffered in Week 5\u2013could nudge the Patriots into finally using Henderson more.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Patriots\u2019 Josh McDaniels: \u2018Trying to Prepare Every Guy\u2019<\/h2>\n<p>Offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels was asked about reacting to the Gibson injury this week, and said he hoped that those who will replace him are \u201cprepared.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhenever a guy gets injured, you never know exactly how long they\u2019re going to be out and all the rest of it. But certainly, we\u2019re trying to prepare every guy to play when it\u2019s his turn. We\u2019ll see how that plays out here,\u201d McDaniels said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou hate it for any of the players who work so hard to put themselves in position to have a great season, any guy who goes down with any injury big or small, it\u2019s tough. It\u2019s tough for them, most importantly.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_5459423\">\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/heavy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/GettyImages-2229695030-e1755618450566.jpg?quality=65&amp;strip=all&amp;w=300\" alt=\"Patriots Hopeful It's TreVeyon Henderson's 'Turn' After Injury\" width=\"582\" height=\"326\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5459423\" data-lazy-load=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-5459423\">GettyOffensive coordinator Josh McDaniels is making a major change for the New England Patriots.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>TreVeyon Henderson Was the \u2018Best Player\u2019 in Camp<\/h2>\n<p>Henderson had some eye-opening moments in training camp, and while some have downplayed the expectations that were on him coming into the season, we should remember that it was only about six weeks ago that he was having his praises sung.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, NBC Sports Boston\u2019s insider Phil Perry, after camp had wrapped up, named Henderson the \u201cBest Player\u201d of the New England summer.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m as surprised as you are that a rookie second-round pick, a running back of all positions, was the best player in camp,\u201d Perry said at the time. \u201cBut on a roster that is really lacking in terms of explosive game-changing talents, I think Henderson is one already. He\u2019s shown that in camp.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And remember, CLNS and insider Mike Giardi declared Henderson the \u201cMVP\u201d of Patriots camp.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h2>Patriots Have Not Gotten Big Plays From TreVeyon Henderson Yet<\/h2>\n<p>We haven\u2019t seen that yet. Perhaps the Gibson injury is a precursor to Henderson\u2019s breakout. Either way, the Patriots need a jolt from the run game, both from the offensive line and from the guys carrying the ball.<\/p>\n<p>McDaniels said he doesn\u2019t think there is a quick answer to the team\u2019s ground-game issues. But he thinks they\u2019ll get solved.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t think there is any shortcut there,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s not for a lack of effort on anybody\u2019s part. I think you just gotta keep working at it. That sometimes is a little bit of a process that comes behind the passing game, at times. Time on task, time in pads that we\u2019re continuing to work on. Patience is important in that regard and not abandoning things and looking for one answer here or there.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Patriots running back TreVeyon Henderson has not put up big plays yet, but the struggling run game needs him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":35122,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-35121","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-new-england-patriots"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Patriots Hopeful It&#039;s TreVeyon Henderson&#039;s &#039;Turn&#039;
