History

Born on October 22, 2002, in Hopewell, Virginia, Henderson attended Hopewell High School, where he rushed for over 4,000 yards and 50 touchdowns. He was named the 2019–2020 Virginia Gatorade Football Player of the Year. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, he did not play his senior season as Virginia moved its fall sports season to the spring.

Henderson enrolled at Ohio State in January 2021 and made an immediate impact. In his debut against Minnesota, he had two carries for 15 yards and one catch for 70 yards and a touchdown. In his third game, he broke Archie Griffin’s freshman single-game rushing record with 277 yards on 24 carries and three touchdowns. He finished the season with 1,248 rushing yards, 15 rushing touchdowns, and 312 receiving yards with four receiving touchdowns.

Henderson’s sophomore season was hampered by injuries, limiting him to eight games. He recorded 571 rushing yards and six touchdowns, along with 28 receiving yards and one receiving touchdown.

In 2023, Henderson played in 10 games, missing some time again with injury. He still rushed for 926 yards and 11 touchdowns while adding 229 receiving yards. His performance earned him First-Team All-Big Ten honors.

In his senior year, Henderson played 16 games, amassing 1,016 rushing yards and 10 touchdowns, with an average of 7.1 yards per carry. He also added 284 receiving yards and one receiving touchdown. His contributions were instrumental in Ohio State’s National Championship victory where he had 49 rush yards.
