Henderson still has work to do in order to prove he deserves the top spot on the depth chart. The coaching staff has made it clear they need to see more from him as a pass protector and between-the-tackles runner... He flashed more than enough potential to think he can grow into a bigger role and become a weekly fantasy difference-maker.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalBreakout

Henderson's rookie upside and late-season production support eventual lead-back emergence in New England.

Henderson is ranked as the top backup RB prospect for 2026 based on his rookie performance (911 rushing yards, 221 receiving yards, 10 total TDs) and top-10 production over the final eight weeks when Stevenson was injured. Despite starting the season behind Rhamondre Stevenson, the source projects Henderson will eventually emerge as New England's lead back; he's currently RB26 in Round 6 ADP while Stevenson is RB28 in Round 7. Henderson offers boom-or-bust weekly RB3 production with massive upside when the backfield balance shifts, though coaching staff wants to see improvement in pass protection and between-the-tackles running.
