The Patriots placed RB TreVeyon Henderson on injured reserve with an illness.

Henderson shared an update about a week ago that he is dealing with a medical emergency with "unexplained neurological symptoms". He did not play in Week 9 and had already been ruled out for Week 10 against the Lions in Munich, Germany. He will now miss at least the next four games (Lions, Chargers, Bills, Vikings). The important issue here is that Henderson gets healthy again.

The Saints activated RB Travis Etienne Jr. from injured reserve Saturday.

Etienne returned to practice this week as the Saints opened his return window. He got in a full practice Friday, paving the way for his return this week. He gets a very positive matchup against the Panthers, though the Saints could also continue to utilize Audric Estime after his solid showing last week.

Chiefs RB Kenneth Walker will miss Sunday’s game against the Falcons with a groin injury.

Walker suffered a minor groin injury in practice Thursday and did not practice Friday. The Chiefs will play it safe with their star running back, who should be good to return for Week 11 against the Cardinals. Rookie Emmett Johnson, who was already starting to see more work, now becomes a very viable option against one of the worst run defenses in the league in Atlanta.
