Draft Note by John Paulsen
Henderson and Cam Akers have been “splitting the first-team snaps pretty evenly so far,” per The Athletic’s Jourdan Rodrigue. Rams HC Sean McVay said, “I look at is as we’ve got two starting backs. … They need to be on the field. I think it’s healthy for them to be able to supplement one another.” It sounds as if McVay is seriously considering a backfield committee, which is not something that he typically implements. Maybe he’s hedging his bet on Akers after his Achilles injury. Henderson was the starter for the first 11 games and was the fantasy RB12 through Week 12, so he’s a proven producer when he’s given a big workload.
