Rookie RB Henderson Scores Trio of TDs in Patriots' Win
14 Nov, 2025
Summary
- Rookie RB TreVeyon Henderson scores all 3 Patriots touchdowns
- Quarterback Drake Maye deflects MVP chants to Henderson
- Henderson's performance with Rhamondre Stevenson out shines
On November 9, 2025, the New England Patriots secured a 27-14 victory over the New York Jets at Gillette Stadium. The star of the night was rookie running back TreVeyon Henderson, who scored all three of the Patriots' touchdowns.
Throughout the game, the home crowd serenaded quarterback Drake Maye with chants of "MVP." However, Maye was quick to shift the attention to Henderson, joking that the chants "may have been" for the rookie running back instead. Henderson's impressive performance, which included scoring five touchdowns in the last two games, has shown why the Patriots selected him in the second round of this year's draft.
"I think it was a big time for him stepping up, and it's been great for him to get all these reps, to keep getting these reps," Maye said. "He wants to be great. He's just showing up every day and asking questions." With Rhamondre Stevenson sidelined by a toe injury, Henderson has seized the opportunity to showcase his skills and establish himself as a valuable weapon in the Patriots' offense.
The MVP chants may not have been intended for Henderson, but his breakout performance has undoubtedly boosted his chances of earning the award by the end of the season.
