Why It Matters: Henderson returned to the lineup after missing the opener with Seattle due to an ankle injury he sustained in a late August practice. He entered on the second series after RB Rhamondre Stevenson fumbled on the first series, and ran 39 yards up the middle for a touchdown six minutes into the game. He’s a RB2 option at this point, but his value could spike if he takes more snaps from Stevenson in the coming weeks.
