Former Ohio State running back TreVeyon Henderson has signed his rookie contract with the New England Patriots. The signing occurred on Saturday, according to multiple sources and confirmed by the Patriots themselves. And while details of contracts can be hard to come by at first, based on some reporting from KPRC 2’s Aaron Wilson, the contract details are very much in favor of the standout running back.
The Patriots agreed to sign Henderson to a four-year, $11.143 million fully guaranteed contract, including a $4.74 million signing bonus. Fully guaranteed in today’s NFL is quite the contract, one that should make Henderson very happy as he starts his career in New England.
The Hopewell, Virginia, native played for Ohio State for four years, splitting time his last season with Ole Miss transfer Quinshon Judkins. Both backs went over 1,000 yards for the season en route to a College Football Playoff national championship, but it was Henderson who was more of the home run threat. He was selected by the Patriots with the No. 38 pick in the second round of the draft.
It should be fun watching the game-breaking ability of the former Buckeye as things get going during his rookie campaign.
