Henderson is coming off a season in which he rushed for 1,016 yards (7.1-yard average) and 10 touchdowns. He led the Big Ten in yards per rush in 2021 (6.8) and 2024 (7.1). His 48 career touchdowns are 13th all-time in the conference's history.
NFL.com's Lance Zierlein said in his scouting report that "isn’t Jahmyr Gibbs, but he can operate in a similar role for teams looking to add a more dynamic player to their running back room." He's praised for his receiving ability, route-running, and pass protection, giving him big potential as a weapon in the passing game for quarterback Drake Maye.
