Overview
- Henderson said Friday that he spent several days in the hospital after an unexpected medical emergency that produced unexplained neurological symptoms and required extensive testing.
- He wrote that diagnostic results were “positive and reassuring” but that doctors still do not know what caused the symptoms.
- The Patriots confirmed Henderson has been away from the team since he was listed with an illness on Oct. 29 and that he will not play in Sunday’s home game while the club supports his recovery.
- Henderson said the episode has affected his strength and coordination and that he is working with specialists and physical therapists while asking for privacy and continued prayers.
- His 2026 season has already been disrupted by a preseason ankle injury and a reported high-ankle sprain, and his absence has increased the workload for lead back Rhamondre Stevenson with Corey Kiner and Lan Larison providing depth.
