TreVeyon Henderson: ruled out against Miami with illness

THE FACT. New England ruled TreVeyon Henderson out for Sunday's game against Miami with an illness that kept him out of practice Thursday and Friday, per ESPN's Mike Reiss. ESPN lists Henderson as the Patriots' second running back on the depth chart.

THE VERDICT. Sit him, and there is nothing to decide. Redraft: his absence concentrates the backfield around Rhamondre Stevenson, with Corey Kiner the only other running back ESPN lists on New England's 53-man roster, so confirm Stevenson's own status before kickoff and add him where he is available. DFS: fade Henderson outright and treat a Patriots backfield down to two bodies as a volume spot. Dynasty: no change at all. An illness costs a week, not a role.
