Won't practice Wednesday

Henderson (illness) won't practice Wednesday, Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald reports.

Henderson also didn't practice this past Thursday and Friday, and then missed the Patriots' Week 8 win over the Dolphins. The running back's looming DNP suggests that he's no lock to play Sunday against the Packers, but Henderson's outlook on that front would no doubt improve with a return to the field in the next couple of days. In his absence against Miami, Rhamondre Stevenson paced New England's rushing attack, while Corey Kiner and Lan Larison mixed in.

Status uncertain for Week 9

Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel said Monday that he had no update on Henry's (foot) status heading into Sunday's game against the Packers, Karen Guregian of MassLive.com reports. "I don't have any expectations yet," Vrabel said of Henry. "It's kind of how he responds here. He wasn't able to finish the [Week 8] game. So we'll see where he is, and I know Hunter will do everything he can to get back to help us."
