TreVeyon Henderson did not practise Thursday due to an illness. He is listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup against Miami, so check the inactive list about 90 minutes before the 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff.
Henderson has been buried behind Rhamondre Stevenson in recent weeks, averaging just 21% of snaps with 1.3 targets and 4.7 carries a game over his last three contests. Even if he is cleared to play, he offers little fantasy value in what has become a clear backup role.

TreVeyon Henderson
Henderson did not practise Thursday due to illness and is questionable for Week 8 against Miami. A limited or full practice Friday would not guarantee he plays, so monitor his status closely. He previously sprained his ankle in Week 5 and has seen his playing time dwindle since returning. The Dolphins have allowed 23.7 half-PPR points a game to running backs, the 4th most of 32, but Henderson's role makes that matchup irrelevant.
In Week 7 against Chicago, Henderson managed 3 carries for 9 yards and 2 catches for 14 yards on 2 targets on just 24% of snaps, totalling 3.3 half-PPR points. Rhamondre Stevenson dominated the backfield with 6 carries and 5 targets on 69% of snaps. Over his last three games, Henderson has averaged 4.7 carries and 1.3 targets a game with a 21% snap share, producing just 3.4 half-PPR points a game. His workload is not secure with Stevenson handling the bulk of carries and Corey Kiner also mixing in. Even if Henderson suits up Sunday, bench him in all formats.
What to do
• Check the inactive list about 90 minutes before kickoff to confirm TreVeyon Henderson's status for Sunday.
• Bench Henderson even if he plays, as his 21% snap share and 3.4 half-PPR points a game over his last three contests offer no fantasy value.
• Do not rely on Henderson as a streamer against Miami despite the favourable matchup, given Rhamondre Stevenson's dominance of the backfield.
