Exp: 12nd NFL Season, 12nd Packers Season
Age: 35
Acquired: Draft 1995 (3b)
  • Stands sixth on the franchise’s all-time list with 174 career regular-season games played; this year he could surpass LeRoy Butler (181) and Forrest Gregg (187) and tie No. 3 Ray Nitschke (190) with another full season
  • Including the postseason, has played in 190 of the Packers’ last 192 games; has played 86 career regular-season games at Lambeau Field, second in team history behind Brett Favre (102)
  • Stands eighth all-time on the Packers’ career receptions list with 308 (for 2,347 yards), and first among running backs, surpassing the injured Ahman Green last year
  • Experience in broadcasting includes being an NFL Draft analyst for ESPN this past April
  • Unlike most NFL starters, consistently contributes on special teams, recording 71 coverage stops since 2000, including 55 the past four seasons
  • Made his first and only Pro Bowl in 2004, his 10th NFL season
  • His first professional carry was his longest run, 17 yards (at Jacksonville, Sept. 24, 1995)
Pro Summary
  • A consummate professional who in many ways embodies what fans think of when they think of a Green Bay Packer
  • A hard and often unnoticed worker who has built a legacy as a powerful lead blocker and skilled pass-catcher out of the backfield, a legacy that continues to grow with each key block and every hurdle of a would-be tackler along the sideline after a swing pass
  • Now in his 12th year, a longtime leader on the field and in the locker room who may not be as punishing a blocker as he was in his prime but still catches the ball effortlessly and makes adjustments before and after the catch like a much-younger player
  • Will be competing for playing time at fullback this year but in this later stage of his career could benefit from the new blocking scheme that requires the fullback to attack more from the angles and edges than straight on
  • Stands sixth on the franchise's all-time list with 174 career regular-season games played; in 2005 he climbed six spots on that list and now could surpass LeRoy Butler (181) and Forrest Gregg (187) and tie No. 3 Ray Nitschke (190) with another full season in a Packers uniform
  • Additionally has played in 86 career regular-season games at Lambeau Field, second most in the history of the Packers' famed stadium, behind only the 102 of Brett Favre
  • Also stands second to Favre (20) with 16 career postseason games played, having moved past Gilbert Brown and Earl Dotson (15) during the 2004 playoffs
  • Including the postseason, he has played in 190 of the Packers' last 192 games
  • A durable, dependable player who received long-overdue recognition in 2004, earning first-team Associated Press All-Pro and starting the Pro Bowl for the NFC, accolades viewed by many teammates and coaches as ones that should have come sooner but ultimately recognized his career achievements
  • A reflection of both his anonymity and value, Henderson has scored just 19 touchdowns in 11 NFL seasons, but the Packers are 14-4 when he finds the end zone
  • Has seven overall seasons blocking for a 1,000-yard rusher, having been out in front of Dorsey Levens (1997, '99) and Ahman Green (2000-04)
  • Running on roads paved by Henderson and an effective offensive line, Green Bay backs have recorded 1,000-yard seasons in six of the last seven years, and seven of the last nine
  • Has blocked for six of the top nine individual rushing efforts in team annals — Levens' 1,435 yards in 1997 (third), plus Green's 1,883 in 2003 (first), 1,387 in 2001 (fourth), 1,240 in 2002 (sixth), 1,175 in 2000 (seventh) and 1,163 in 2004 (ninth)
  • Had a significant role in '03 as the Packers set new single-season franchise records for yards rushing (2,558) and yards per carry (5.05), including the 1,883 yards by Green to break Jim Taylor's 41-year-old team rushing mark
  • Since Henderson became the starting fullback in 1996, Green Bay has averaged 111.7 rushing yards per contest (17,879 yards, 160 games); over the Packers' first four years in the 'West Coast' offense (1992-95), the team averaged a noticeably lower 96.0 yards a game
  • Equally adept as a pass catcher, he stands eighth all-time on the Packers' career receptions list with 308 (for 2,347 yards), and first among running backs, surpassing the injured Green last year
  • Became Green Bay's first full-time fullback to reach 200 receptions in 2002
  • Continues his unselfish approach to the game by actively participating on several special teams units — something that is very uncommon for a starter in today's era of specialization, especially for a player who has been to the Pro Bowl
  • Not only plays special teams, but also is a significant contributor, having registered 71 coverage stops since 2000, including 55 the past four seasons
  • Following a collegiate career lacking in stats, which spawned zero invitations to postseason all-star games — or to the NFL scouting combine — the Packers targeted him as the player they wanted to help jump-start their running game
  • Came to Titletown as a somewhat unknown third-round draft choice and a preseason knee injury short-circuited his push for the starting lineup
  • Eventually won the starting fullback job late in '96 training camp, over the incumbent Levens, in large part due to his extraordinary blocking
  • At one point, enjoyed a consecutive games-played streak of 114 (126 including playoffs) until a 2002 injury halted the string
2005 SeasonBack To Top
  • Played in all 16 games for the ninth time in his 11 NFL seasons, making eight starts
  • Had 30 catches for 264 yards, one rush for minus-5 yards and two kickoff returns for 20 yards
  • Made his 100th NFL start and 300th career catch (for 8 yards) — both on a Monday night vs. the Vikings (Nov. 21) — and surpassed No. 9 Robert Brooks on the team's all-time receptions list at Baltimore (Dec. 19)
  • His 264 receiving yards marked the second-highest total of his career and the most since 1997 (367)
  • Also was named as a Pro Bowl alternate
  • In home loss to Tampa Bay (Sept. 25), had his lone 2005 carry, for minus-5 yards, his first attempt since the ‘02 season
  • At Philadelphia (Nov. 27), started at fullback and had two tackles on special teams
  • Suffered a head injury on the Packers kickoff that started the second half, but later returned
  • In Eagles contest, held without a catch for the first time since the memorable Dec. 28, 2003, finale vs. Denver, ending his personal 26-game reception streak (29 including playoffs)
  • Started at fullback and caught four passes for 38 yards in 16-13, overtime win vs. Detroit (Dec. 11)
  • In the third quarter, made a 15-yard catch coming out of the backfield, leaping over CB Dré Bly for a first down

  • For the second straight year, he did not have a rushing attempt
  • Saw action in his 150th career NFL game, at Washington (Oct. 31), in front of family and friends as a native of nearby Richmond, Va.
  • Later, in NFC Wild Card playoff contest vs. Minnesota (Jan. 9), played in a 16th career postseason game, surpassing Brown and Dotson (15) on the Packers' all-time list; only Favre, who played in a 20th playoff contest that day, has more Packers postseason experience
  • Made a season-best four catches in consecutive games, at Washington (Oct. 31) and vs. Minnesota (Nov. 14)
  • Made his only reception catch in Sunday night game at Houston (Nov. 21) a nifty one to set up the game-tying field goal; caught a swing pass to the right, advanced upfield, stiff-armed LB Jamie Sharper, then jumped over and through two other Houston defenders
  • Made his lone catch an important one in division-clinching triumph at Minnesota (Dec. 24) on a touchdown drive that would cover 76 yards in 16 plays; with the Packers facing a third-and-2 at the Vikings' 12, caught a short Favre pass, then jumped between two defenders for 3 yards and a critical first down

  • On opening day vs. Atlanta (Sept. 8), scored the go-ahead touchdown (his first rushing TD since late in the '99 season) — a 1-yard plunge off left tackle, on fourth down, with 1:10 left in regulation, providing a 34-31 lead — in eventual 37-34, overtime victory
  • In 28-10 win at New England (Oct. 13), posted his 200th career reception, a 3-yard touchdown catch (his first TD reception since the sixth game of 2000)
