Enters into timeshare Henderson carried the ball 10 times for 47 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-27 win over the Falcons.

Impact Henderson got the first carry of the game, but Cam Akers entered and split work fairly evenly on the opening drive. The touch total for the game surprisingly ended in Akers' favor, though Henderson was far more efficient and also appeared to be favored near the goal line. As a result, he was able to salvage his day with an eight-yard touchdown plunge. Henderson is likely to maintain a significant role in the offense moving forward, though Akers appears equally likely to cut into Henderson's work.

Return to practice TBD Coach Sean McVay acknowledged Monday that he doesn't have a timeline for when Henderson (soft-tissue injury) can return to practice, noting "it could be anywhere between two days,...

Impact The same applies to fellow RB Cam Akers, but given McVay's initial estimate, it sounds like neither player's issue is viewed as a long term one, with the Rams simply preferring to play it safe at this stage of the preseason. As long as Akers and/or Henderson are sidelined, added practice reps will be available for Kyren Williams and Jake Funk.

Set to miss practice time Henderson is dealing with a "soft tissue" injury and is slated to miss some practice time, according to coach Sean McVay, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.

Impact The same goes for Cam Akers, with McVay noting that neither of the Rams' top two RBs will practice until they can work at "full speed" in team drills. In the meantime, Kyren Williams and Jake Funk are in line to see added practice reps, as they did Monday, per Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic.

Still getting work with starters Henderson and Cam Akers have been rotating with the first-team offense, ESPN.com's Sarah Barshop reports.

Impact Akers, a 2020 second-round pick, is expected to take back the lead role after a strong finish to his rookie season was followed by an Achilles tear last summer. However, he struggled when he returned for the playoffs, which could leave an opening for Henderson if Akers still hasn't regained his explosiveness. If nothing else, Henderson seems to be secure in the No. 2 role given that the depth chart behind him holds late-round picks and undrafted young players. Rookie fifth-rounder Kyren Williams is most promising of the bunch, but he's on the PUP list due to a broken foot suffered at OTAs, with no assurance he'll be ready by Week 1.

Impact as receiver in SB LVI win Henderson rushed four times for seven yards and brought in three of five targets for 43 yards during the Rams' 23-20 win over the Bengals in Super Bowl LVI on Sunday.

Impact Activated from injured reserve on Friday after last having played in Week 16, Henderson still was the clear complementary option to lead back Cam Akers in terms of rushing volume. However, the third-year back made an appreciable impact as a receiver, particularly on his catches of 25 and 15 yards in the second and third quarters, respectively. Henderson's knee should be back to full strength early in the offseason if it isn't already, and he and Akers could have quite the competition for the No. 1 running back job in training camp this coming summer.
