"He looked every bit the part that fans believed he would be coming out of Ohio State, and they wanted to see that continue despite Stevenson's return this past Sunday. There were a lot of questions about what the Patriots would ultimately decide now that the starter was back in the lineup, and based on their snap counts against the Bengals, we might have gotten the answer about how the rest of the season will go."
"Because Henderson performed like a top-level running back over the last two games, there were many concerns about the Patriots deciding to throw him on the back burner with Stevenson returning from injury. That wasn't the case against the Bengals, however, as he was on the field for more than double the number of snaps as the veteran. Patriots RB snaps: - TreVeyon Henderson: 46- Rhamondre Stevenson: 22- Terrell Jennings: 3- Chris Mason (@ByChrisMason) November 23, 2025"
TreVeyon Henderson recorded 33 carries for 209 yards and four rushing touchdowns across two games, plus a receiving touchdown. Rhamondre Stevenson’s injury opened the starting role and the offense immediately benefited from Henderson’s play. Henderson displayed the skill set expected from his Ohio State pedigree and maintained momentum upon Stevenson’s return. The Bengals game showed Henderson on the field for more than twice the snaps of Stevenson, suggesting a potential shift in usage. The team may also be managing Stevenson’s toe injury and preserving his starter designation out of loyalty, leaving some uncertainty about long-term roles.
