New England Patriots running back TreVeyon Henderson thanked his wife for her support after his recent health setback.
In an official statement shared on social media on Friday, Nov. 6, the 24-year-old NFL athlete explained he recently suffered “an unexpected and unusual medical emergency” and praised his spouse after “a series of unexplained neurological symptoms ... required hospitalization for several days.”
“I want to thank my wife for being by my side throughout all of this,” Henderson wrote via X.

The athlete has not publicly revealed his wife’s name, but he announced their engagement in September 2025, just one week after his NFL debut.
“‘Charm is deceitful and beauty is passing, But a woman who fears the Lord, she shall be praised.’ Proverbs 31:30 💍,” he captioned an Instagram post at the time, sharing a photo of the couple surrounded by rose petals moments after the proposal.
On Feb. 3, Henderson confirmed that the pair had gotten married. “We made it official. We got engaged first, then we eloped,” he said during an appearance on The Walk podcast.
While speaking to reporters after practice on Nov. 6, Patriots coach Mike Vrabel addressed Henderson’s absence and seemingly confirmed the name of his athlete’s spouse.
“He is well loved and respected on our football team,” Vrabel, 51, said, per ESPN. “I’m trying to make sure that TreVeyon’s cared for, the recovery plan is intact, he’s comfortable with it, and that his wife Kenzie is cared for and understands what was going on through the process.”
TreVeyon and his wife met through social media, the football player previously said.
He told The Walk that he’d suffered an injury during his sophomore year at Ohio State University and had been praying for the right person to come into his life.

“I get on TikTok, and she’s the first thing I see,” he recalled. “She was the first thing that I saw, and I’m like, this may be a sign from the Lord, and I end up reaching out. She ended up reaching back to me, and next thing you know, a week later, we’re together.”

Henderson said on Nov. 6 that during his hospitalization, he underwent “extensive medical testing and evaluation.”
“While the results of my comprehensive medical testing have come back positive and reassuring, the cause of this remains unknown and unexplainable,” he continued, adding that he plans to “continue working closely with specialists and physical therapists to focus on my recovery, as these symptoms have affected my strength, coordination and some of my physical functions.”
“I am committed to doing everything necessary to return to full health. My health and long-term well-being remain my foremost priorities,” the NFL athlete said.

Henderson then wrote that he and his wife were “deeply grateful” for their family and loved ones, as well as the New England Patriots organization, his agent, his medical team, teammates “and everyone who has offered prayers, encouragement and support.”
“We respectfully ask for continued prayers and privacy as we focus on my health and recovery,” his statement concluded.
The specific nature of Henderson’s medical emergency has not been shared publicly.
He has not practiced with the Patriots since Oct. 28 and was added to the injury report with an illness on Oct. 29, the NFL reported.
