Patriots running back TreVeyon Henderson remains sidelined by ankle injury

New England running back TreVeyon Henderson missed team practice Monday as he continues recovering from an ankle injury sustained August 24. Head coach Mike Vrabel indicated the team would evaluate the sophomore's condition day-to-day ahead of Wednesday’s season opener against the Seattle Seahawks. Henderson did not participate in Monday's session alongside teammate Ben Brown. The running back, who finished third in Offensive Rookie of the Year voting last season, has not practiced in several weeks. Given the limited preparation time remaining before Wednesday's game, his status for the opener appears uncertain. The Patriots face a mini-bye following their Week 1 contest, potentially allowing more time for the running back to return for the second week of the season.
