NFL Week 1 Injury Update: TreVeyon Henderson and Puka Nacua

As the NFL season begins, teams are facing the challenges of player injuries. Notably, New England Patriots running back TreVeyon Henderson is not practicing due to an ankle injury, raising doubts about his availability for the season opener against the Seattle Seahawks.

Henderson has not participated in practice since August 24, which could lead to veteran Rhamondre Stevenson taking on a larger role if Henderson is unable to play. Last season, Henderson was a key contributor, rushing for 911 yards and scoring ten touchdowns.

In contrast, Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay has indicated that wide receiver Puka Nacua is expected to play in Thursday's game against the San Francisco 49ers. Nacua has been dealing with psoas soreness since an injury during an August practice but has been managed carefully throughout training camp.
