Patriots rookie RB TreVeyon Henderson has surged to the top of the Offensive Rookie of the Year race, thanks to piling up stats in November and December so far.
The second-round pick now gets a chance to cement things in tonight’s prime time matchup against the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday Night Football at 8:15 p.m. ET on NBC and Peacock.
With the Patriots needing a win after falling short against the Buffalo Bills last week, Henderson’s talents could be on full display against a Ravens defense that has ranked middle-of-the-pack at defending RBs.
Let’s take a look at the key TreVeyon Henderson stats and picks vs. the Ravens, using PrizePicks projections for this important Sunday Night football matchup.
TreVeyon Henderson Stats, Pick for SNF vs. Ravens
Henderson spent the first half of his rookie season in an uncomfortable split with veteran back Rhamondre Stevenson. Head coach Mike Vrabel preferred to ease the rookie in, noting that he had full faith in Stevenson, even with his fumbling issues early on.
However, after Stevenson was injured and sat out three games with a toe injury midway through the year, Henderson had his chance. He's proceeded to rack up 545 rushing yards in the six games since Stevenson was hurt, with over 60 yards in every game but one and over 100 yards in two of them.
Henderson has the 14th-most explosive rush yards, per FTN, meaning he is able to break off chunk runs like his impressive 65-yard TD against the Bills last week.
Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson Projection vs. Ravens: 2 Receptions
Despite it taking the better part of two months for Henderson to get his rookie season going, he has been pretty consistent in the receiving game.
