The Patriots had some internal debate on who to select at No. 38, but they wound up drafting TreVeyon Henderson.

Henderson is a speedy, undersized running back out of head coach Mike Vrabel’s alma mater. The 5-foot-10, 202-pound ball carrier ran a 4.43-second 40-yard dash at the NFL Scouting Combine and averaged 7.1 yards per carry in 2024 for the national champion Buckeyes.

With the No. 38 overall pick early in the second round, New England drafted running back TreVeyon Henderson. A standout at Ohio State, Henderson has been lauded for his leadership and fits the mold Mike Vrabel is looking to forge. He’s one of the hardest-hitting blocking backs in the draft.
