The New England Patriots rule running back TreVeyon Henderson out for Wednesday night’s season opener against the Seattle Seahawks. Multiple reports say he will not be available for the game.
The outlets attribute the decision to an ankle injury that has affected Henderson throughout the preseason and into the week leading up to the matchup. Fox Sports reports he misses all three practices during the week with the injury, while other sources note he has been dealing with it throughout the preseason and that his status is ruled out for the opener.
While the sources align on his absence from the lineup, they differ slightly in how they describe the timing details—some emphasize that he has been dealing with the ankle problem for weeks and others focus on practice participation in the final days before kickoff. All accounts describe the team’s final determination before the game.
