TreVeyon Henderson is ruled out Friday (illness)

TreVeyon Henderson did not practise Wednesday or Thursday and was not listed on Friday's report, ruled out with an illness for New England's Week 10 trip to Detroit. The Patriots have not provided a return timeline for the running back, who has been sidelined by unexplained neurological symptoms. He missed his third straight game and will not travel to Munich for Sunday's contest.

Henderson has no fantasy value until he is cleared to play. He had minimal work even when healthy: in Week 7 against Chicago, he managed 3 carries for 9 yards and 2 catches for 14 yards on 2 targets on 24% of snaps for 3.3 half-PPR points, whilst Rhamondre Stevenson had 6 carries and 5 targets on 69% of snaps. With no return date in sight and New England on bye in Week 11, he offers nothing for fantasy lineups.

TreVeyon Henderson

Henderson did not practise Wednesday or Thursday and was ruled out Friday with an illness, unable to play this week against Detroit. The Patriots have not provided a return timeline for his unexplained neurological symptoms, and he will miss Week 11's bye as well. His availability remains uncertain for the foreseeable future. Even before the illness, he had fallen to a minimal role behind Rhamondre Stevenson.

In Week 7 against Chicago, he managed just 3 carries for 9 yards and 2 catches for 14 yards on 2 targets on 24% of snaps for 3.3 half-PPR points. Stevenson dominated with 6 carries and 5 targets on 69% of snaps that game. Over his last three games, Henderson averaged 4.7 carries and 1.3 targets on 21% of snaps for 3.4 half-PPR points a game. Corey Kiner and Lan Larison are next on the depth chart at running back.

What to do

• Bench TreVeyon Henderson until he is cleared to return from illness.

• Do not expect Henderson to reclaim a significant role even when healthy, given Rhamondre Stevenson's dominance of the backfield.

• In deeper leagues where Henderson is rostered, monitor practice reports after the bye week for any update on his availability.
