Evaluation:

A fifth-year senior, Henderson earned the starting right tackle job midway through his 2019 campaign and has remained entrenched in that role ever since. The former walk-on is a big physical, a bruiser with great length who generates tremendous push due to his power, especially in the run game. He possesses a sound kick slide and plays through the whistle. Henderson placed a big emphasis on improved communication headed into his final year. He can tend to get stood up a bit upright in pass protection and is limited by some upper body stiffness (previous back injury). A heavy handed mauler who thrives in run blocking, Henderson demonstrates enough giddy up to pull down the line and could be viewed as a potential guard candidate at the next level. He projects as an undrafted free agent with developmental upside.

Background:

He suffered a back injury which caused him to miss most of the 2020 season. He continued to receive treatment for his back during the 2022 season. Starred in football (14 pancake blocks as a senior) and baseball at Marlboro County High School. Full name is Noah James Henderson; degree in business management.
