Brown is sidelined by an ankle injury while Henderson is out sick ahead of New England's trip to Miami.
The Patriots will be without two key pieces of their offense on Sunday. Wide receiver A.J. Brown and running back TreVeyon Henderson were both ruled out Saturday ahead of New England's game against the Miami Dolphins, with neither player traveling to South Florida for the matchup.
Brown had already been nursing an ankle injury heading into the week, and it kept him out of the lineup. Henderson, the Patriots' No. 2 running back, was ruled out separately due to illness rather than the injury that has lingered around the receiver spot.
The game kicks off at 4:25 p.m. at Hard Rock Stadium, with Miami now facing a Patriots offense missing two of its more dynamic playmakers. How New England adjusts without Brown's receiving threat and Henderson's work in the backfield figures to shape how the Patriots attack a Dolphins defense that caught something of a break with both players sidelined.
