Round 2, Pick 38: TreVeyon Henderson, RB - Ohio State

Michael Dussault, Patriots.com:Henderson should contribute immediately as a change-of-pace back and third-down option, and bring an element of needed explosiveness to an evolving Patriots offense.

Evan Lazar, Patriots.com:The #Patriots have selected Ohio State RB TreVeyon Henderson with the 38th overall pick. Henderson is an explosive weapon in the run and pass game. No. 18 on my big board.

I see shades of Breece Hall and Jahmyr Gibbs.

Jordan Schultz, FOX Sports:Drake Maye's new best friend...

Adam Schefter, ESPN:At pick No. 38, the Patriots select Ohio St. RB TreVeyon Henderson. Two Ohio State RBs go two picks apart in round two.

Ian Rapoport, NFL Network:The #Patriots at No. 38 take #OSU RB TreVeyon Henderson, one of new/old OC Josh McDaniels is said to have a ton of love for.

@MoveTheSticks has called him the best pass-protecting RB in years.

Brian Hines, Pats Pulpit:Henderson was my favorite back entering the day. Home-run speed, explosiveness, weapon in the passing game, awesome in pass pro.

Mike Reiss, ESPN:

The Patriots select Ohio State RB TreVeyon Henderson with their second-round pick (No. 38).

🏈 5-foot-10, 202 pounds

🏈 1,016 yards, averaging 7.1 avg. per carry in 2024

🏈 27 catches for 284 yards in 2024

Mark Daniels, MassLive:With pick 38, the Patriots draft Ohio State RB TreVeyon Henderson. Really good running back. Henderson ran for 1,016 yards with 10 touchdowns last season. He also caught 27 passes for 284 yards. The Patriots RB is stacked with Rhamondre Stevenson, Antonio Gibson and Henderson.

Ari Meirov, The 33rd Team:An all-around back, Henderson excels as a runner, receiver, and pass protector he truly does it all. Another perfect Mike Vrabel player.

Jerry Thornton, Barstool Sports:TreVeyon Henderson had 7.1 YPA. And 0 fumbles

Jon Gruden, Barstool Sports:New England just got themselves a great running back and an even better guy!! Good luck with the Patriots, TreVeyon!

Albert Breer, NBC Sports Boston:Head coach Mike Vrabel, college scouting director Cam Williams, and VP of Football Operations and Strategy John Streicher are Ohio State alums, and have a ton of institutional knowledge on the national champs. Henderson's a fun weapon for Josh McDaniels.

Robert Griffin III, NFL Analyst:TreVeyon Henderson scares defenses time he touches the ball. This is something the New England Patriots desperately needed in their offensive attack. He is a physical pass protector as well. A++ pick for Drake Maye's development and his offense scoring points.
