NFL.com analyst Lance Zierlein views Henderson as a potential practice squad candidate with notable strengths and some limitations. He highlights Henderson’s size, vision, footwork, and inside running effectiveness, along with strong pass protection and kick coverage value. However, Zierlein cautions that Henderson may lack burst for wide runs and is a less effective pass catcher, meaning he’ll need a suitable scheme fit to contribute at the pro level.
Key takeaways:
– Chiefs bolster backfield depth with multiple undrafted free agents, including Henderson.
– Henderson is praised for vision, run instincts, and pass protection, but may struggle with burst and receiving duties.
– A favorable scheme fit will be crucial for Henderson to translate college success to the NFL.
