According to 247Sports, Henderson, a native of Rocky Point, North Carolina, is ranked the No. 28 2025 prospect in NC and the No. 94 edge rusher in his class.

One of Henderson's standout attributes is his ability to apply relentless pressure on opposing quarterbacks. His speed off the edge and knack for disrupting offensive plays make him a formidable force in pass-rush situations. This capability is crucial in today's fast-paced college football landscape, where disrupting the quarterback's rhythm can sway the momentum of an entire game.

Henderson's presence on the field promises to keep opposing offenses on edge and provide crucial turnovers and sacks when needed most.

Known for his work ethic and team-first mentality, wherever he chooses to play college ball, he is expected to contribute not only on the field but also in the locker room. His leadership qualities and dedication to excellence are qualities that would resonate well with the Spartans' coaching staff and fellow teammates alike.

Looking ahead, Henderson's potential development under the Michigan State coaching staff would promise continued growth and refinement of his skills. With their support and his own determination, he would have the potential to evolve into a dominant force not only within the conference but also on the national stage.

If Henderson commits to Michigan State football, it would represent a significant boost to the team's defensive capabilities. His prowess as a three-star edge rusher would bring a heightened level of pressure that would undoubtedly challenge and disrupt opposing teams. Beyond his physical talents, Henderson's leadership and commitment to excellence would be poised to elevate the Spartans' defensive strategy and contribute to their overall success in future seasons.

Henderson will make his announcement on Sunday.
