Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson gets update after injury scare

New England Patriots running back TreVeyon Henderson suffered an injury scare during Monday's practice, when he reportedly slipped on the turf during a cut.

He left the practice session early after what looked like an ankle injury.

On Tuesday, Boston Globe Sports' Christopher Price revealed that Henderson suffered a right ankle injury and had "precautionary tests" done. However, the good news for the Patriots is that the second-year running back is "walking and moving fine."

"According to a league source, TreVeyon Henderson is getting some ”precautionary tests” done on his right ankle, but is walking and moving fine. Described as a lower ankle issue he sustained after slipping on the turf during practice Monday," Price wrote.

When speaking with media members, Patriots executive vice president of player personnel Eliot Wolf confirmed that Henderson would not practice on Tuesday.

That isn't exactly surprising with the Patriots wanting to ensure one of their best offensive weapons is healthy and ready for the regular season. The team will go on the road for their preseason finale against the Cleveland Browns on Thursday, which is less than two weeks before their regular season opener against the Seattle Seahawks.
