TreVeyon Henderson has now missed TWO straight Patriots practices. And suddenly, Corey Kiner matters a whole lot more. Henderson injured his ankle late last month during New England's final practice before its preseason finale against Cleveland. He walked off under his own power and initially it didn't seem like something that should create a ton of concern. But now? He's missed multiple practices with the Patriots less than a week away from opening their season against the Seattle Seahawks. There's still time. New England has multiple practices remaining before traveling west, and hopefully Henderson returns and none of this matters. But this is exactly why Patriots fans spent so much time talking about RB3 throughout training camp. Running backs get banged up. And if Henderson can't go, Corey Kiner suddenly becomes significantly more important. New England specifically traded for Kiner after he spent the preseason with Arizona. It's a limited sample size, but there are some similarities between what Kiner can provide and Henderson's skill set. Then there's another layer. The Patriots were able to keep Lan Larison and Hassan Haskins on the practice squad. If Henderson actually misses time and New England needs another running back, Larison might make the most sense because of what he can potentially provide as a pass catcher. Rhamondre Stevenson would obviously become the centerpiece of the backfield. But New England needs more than one running back. Hopefully Henderson is back soon. Until then? Corey Kiner just became a player Patriots fans need to be watching VERY closely. #Patriots #NewEnglandPatriots #TreVeyonHenderson #CoreyKiner #RhamondreStevenson #NFL Photo Credit:Stephanie Amador Blondet Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
