Who Should I Start? Darrell Henderson or Ke'Shawn Vaughn

Tuesday, December 26, 2:20 PM

The Los Angeles Rams have released running back Darrell Henderson Jr. from the practice squad. Henderson was drafted by the organization in 2019 and spent four seasons with Los Angeles before being waived in the middle of the 2022 season. He rejoined the team after injuries to Kyren Williams (ankle) and Ronnie Rivers (knee) this year, rushing 46 times for 112 yards and two touchdowns in four games. He has spent the last month on the practice squad, but his time with the organization is coming to an end once again. Rivers and Royce Freeman remain the backups to Williams.

The New England Patriots are expected to sign free-agent running back Ke'Shawn Vaughn to their practice squad. With Rachaad White accumulating 108.1 scrimmage yards per game with seven total touchdowns since Week 7, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers waived the expendable Vaughn on Friday. The Bucs spent a third-round pick on Vaughn in the 2020 NFL Draft, and the tailback never quite made much noise during his Tampa Bay career. The 26-year-old rushed 103 times for 384 yards (3.7 yards per carry) with 14 receptions for 81 yards and three lifetime scores in 43 games. Vaughn is set to serve as backfield depth for the Pats, who let go of Ty Montgomery last week and are currently missing lead back Rhamondre Stevenson (ankle) to an ankle sprain. Ezekiel Elliott would still handle an every-down role if Stevenson remains out on Christmas Eve against the Denver Broncos.
