Locked On Patriots Hit - Quick Takes on the New England Patriots

TreVeyon Henderson Is Making a STRONG Case to Be Patriots RB1

Episode Summary

Has TreVeyon Henderson done enough to become the Patriots’ top running back? On this Patriots HIT, Zac Blackerby breaks down the growing RB1 conversation between Henderson and Rhamondre Stevenson after New England’s game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Stevenson appeared to have the advantage throughout training camp, but ball security has once again become a concern. His fumble against Pittsburgh was particularly frustrating after Stevenson appeared to make progress with that issue last season. Then Henderson returned and immediately reminded everyone what he brings to the offense. Henderson provides explosiveness, big-play potential and another weapon in the passing game. Zac believes Mike Vrabel probably isn’t looking at the situation as a traditional RB1 versus RB2 competition, and the workload could ultimately depend on the matchup. But if the question is which running back you trust with the football and which one provides the greater home-run threat, Henderson is making a strong argument. Zac also dives into a Patriots defense that ranked second in Pro Football Network’s Defensive Impact metric for the week with a 92.5 score. Christian Gonzalez continues to shine, Charles Woods impressed while filling in for Carlton Davis, and New England has several young defenders beginning to emerge. Who should get more touches moving forward: Henderson or Stevenson? #NewEnglandPatriots #TreVeyonHenderson #PatriotsNation Photo Credit: Bob DeChiara IMAGN Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
