Patriots: Is TreVeyon Henderson Playing Today vs Bears?

Is TreVeyon Henderson playing today? Yes. The running back will play for the New England Patriots against the Chicago Bears on Thursday night, October 22, after the Patriots removed him from their final injury report on Wednesday, October 21.





TreVeyon Henderson is cleared for Week 7 after a full week of practice


The official Week 7 injury report on Patriots.com lists TreVeyon Henderson as a full participant with an ankle injury and gives him no game status for the Patriots at Bears game. No game status means Henderson is cleared to play at Soldier Field.


Patriots Wire reported that Henderson was removed from the final injury report before the team left for Chicago on Wednesday. Henderson practiced fully on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, a clear step up from the limited work he managed before the Week 6 game against the New York Jets.


An ankle injury in Week 5 against Las Vegas almost cost Henderson several weeks


TreVeyon Henderson hurt his ankle in the Patriots' Week 5 game against the Las Vegas Raiders. Patriots Wire reported the injury as a high ankle sprain that was expected to keep Henderson sidelined for multiple weeks.


Henderson beat that timeline. He played in Week 6 against the New York Jets, carrying seven times for 31 yards and adding one reception for nine yards. The second-year back did enough in that return to show the Patriots' staff his ankle could handle game contact on a short week.





Corey Kiner's closer role makes Henderson's workload the real question in Chicago


Henderson being active does not settle how much he will carry the ball against the Chicago Bears. The Patriots have leaned on Henderson and Rhamondre Stevenson as their one-two punch, and third back Corey Kiner closed out the Jets win with 11 carries for a team-high 57 yards.


NBC Sports noted that Henderson will be active for Thursday Night Football, but his usage is up in the air after Kiner's strong finish last week. How head coach Mike Vrabel splits the carries between Stevenson, Henderson and Kiner is the biggest backfield question at Soldier Field tonight.

A healthy backfield gives Drake Maye support behind a reshuffled Patriots line


Henderson's clearance matters more because the Patriots are short-handed elsewhere tonight. The final injury report ruled out both starting guards, Alijah Vera-Tucker and Ben Brown, and cornerback Carlton Davis III, while wide receiver A.J. Brown carries no game status after practicing fully with an ankle injury.


A full backfield gives quarterback Drake Maye a running game to lean on behind a reshuffled offensive line. Chicago is also 4-2, and the Bears ruled out running back Kyle Monangai and linebacker Jack Sanborn, so both teams are managing key absences in this Thursday night matchup at Soldier Field.

Image

Both the Patriots and the Bears enter the Week 7 game at 4-2. Why does losing Monangai hurt the Bears rushing attack without Monangai?

Kyle Monangai has 324 rushing yards and three touchdowns on 60 carries in just four games, while D'Andre Swift leads Chicago with 398 rushing yards. Monangai ave...
