The New England Patriots may very well have landed their running back of the future this past April, as they selected TreVeyon Henderson in the second round of the NFL Draft.
Henderson will join a backfield that featured Rhamondre Stevenson as the lead runner last season, but the Ohio State product could very well surpass Stevenson.
Basically, Henderson and Stevenson will represent the Patriots' top two halfbacks in some form, which has clouded the future of Antonio Gibson.
New England signed Gibson to a two-year deal last offseason and were expecting the former Washington Commanders playmaker to serve as a reliable pass-catcher out of the backfield in 2024, but that did not happen, as Gibson managed a career-low 23 receptions.
