Carlos Henderson Fantasy Stats

The Denver Broncos released wide receiver Carlos Henderson on Saturday, according to sources. The third-round pick last year, Henderson didn't play at all in his rookie season due to injury and hadn't reported to training camp because of personal issues. The writing was on the wall when the Broncos drafted rookies Courtland Sutton and Daesean Hamilton.

Denver Broncos wide receiver Carlos Henderson has been suspended one game by the NFL for a violation of the league's substance-abuse policy. Henderson hasn't even reported to training camp, so obviously he's a long shot to crack the 53-man roster. He was reportedly dealing with a personal matter, but his drug-related issue doesn't help matters. Henderson was a third-round pick in 2017 and didn't play at all in his rookie season due to a thumb injury. He's well off the fantasy radar.

The Denver Broncos will place wide receiver Carlos Henderson on the did not report list to start training camp for personal reasons. Henderson was a third-round pick last season but has yet to play in an NFL game after being placed on Injured Reserve last year with a torn thumb ligament. This latest development doesn't help his chances of making an impact in 2018, especially after the team drafted rookies Courtland Sutton and Daesean Hamilton. You can ignore Henderson in fantasy.

Denver Broncos wide receiver Carlos Henderson (hamstring) is sidelined with a hamstring issue, and head coach Vance Joseph hinted that Henderson may be in danger of not making the final roster. Hes got to get back on the field if he wants to make this team," Joseph said. Henderson missed all of his rookie season with a finger injury, and he's off to a bad start this offseason. He's especially on the bubble after the team drafted Courtland Sutton this year. Henderson can be ignored in fantasy.

The Denver Broncos are hoping that wide receiver Carlos Henderson and tight end Jake Butt can take more pressure off of wideouts Demaryius Thomas and Emmanuel Sanders in 2018. We saw a lot of where the safety and corner doubled D.T., the safety and corner double E and left those (other) guys one-on-one, head coach Vance Joseph told reporters this week at the NFL owners meetings in Orlando, Fla. We have to find a way to attack those kind of coverages with our tight ends, with our slot and with our back so we can get more one-on-ones outside. The Broncos just haven't been able to find consistency aside from Thomas and Sanders, and Henderson, a third-round pick last year, averaged 18.7 yards per catch and 19 touchdowns his senior year in college. Henderson missed all of his rookie year due to a torn thumb ligament, but he has the ability to make plays, and Joseph said the team will be counting on him for production out of the slot. Along with Butt, receiver Jordan Taylor (13 catches last year) could have a larger role in the offense. However, a lot depends on who is under center in 2018, and right now it looks to be free-agent acquisition Case Keenum, although Denver will surely address the position in the draft. Henderson and Butt could be successful deep sleepers in 2018 for those in deeper leagues.

Denver Broncos general manager John Elway is hopeful that wide receiver Carlos Henderson (wrist), the third-round pick that missed all of last season on Injured Reserve, can blossom into a reliable pass catcher behind Demaryius Thomas and Emmanuel Sanders in 2018. Henderson must prove he's healthy first this summer, but he has the speed to become a sneaky slot weapon underneath for the Broncos. Whether the Broncos can field a competent quarterback under center in 2018 is another story altogether, but Henderson will be worth watching in deeper leagues if he wins the No. 3 job.

Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver Carlos Henderson was arrested for marijuana possession in Louisiana on Sunday. He was the team's third-round pick in the 2017 draft, but he didn't play at all in 2017 due to a thumb injury. Police officers said Henderson admitted to smoking marijuana earlier on Sunday but denied smoking in the vehicle. Henderson is more of a speedy slot receiver, but this development coupled with his injury means the Broncos won't be able to rely on him in 2018.

The Denver Broncos placed several players on various lists for injuries Saturday. Rookie wide receiver Carlos Henderson was placed on season ending IR. He is now simply a longer-term league option now. Rookie tight end Jake Butt is on PUP so he will miss at least six weeks. His value is much higher in dynasty formats, as is quarterback Chad Kelly who is out for the season.

Denver Broncos wide receiver Carlos Henderson injured his thumb and will have a procedure to fix it Sunday. The team will not know how bad it is or how long he will be out until after the procedure. This was a blow to the hopes of a young rookie receiver who was battling for the #3 WR spot on the Broncos which would represent a fantasy option in deeper leagues. He also was battling for the kickoff returner job though he was not likely the favorite.
