McVay sees Henderson as Rams' best RB option with Akers hurt
A third-round draft pick in 2019, Henderson was rarely featured as a rookie behind Gurley and Malcolm Brown, finishing with 147 yards rushing on 39 carries. Henderson got off to a promising start last season, running for 81 yards and a touchdown on 12 carries against Philadelphia and setting career highs with 20 attempts for 114 yards and a score against Buffalo the following week.
