Mike Vrabel and the New England Patriots added no top players at the NFL trade deadline to help fuel their playoff run. That was a puzzling development. Yet, a national analyst has singled out one Patriots player, running back TreVeyon Henderson, whom they feel could be a big beneficiary of that deadline's inactivity.
TreVeyon Henderson of Ohio State came aboard as Mike Vrabel's second-ever Patriots' draft pick in the 2025 second round. It was a massive investment in a player many observers thought could add a missing element, explosiveness, to a lackluster Patriots' backfield.
The top returnees were fumbling Rhamondre Stevenson, who had as many fumbles as touchdowns (seven) in 2024, and all-purpose back, Antonio Gibson.
