Emeka Egbuka drops 1-word message as TreVeyon Henderson gets engaged

New England Patriots running back TreVeyon Henderson made his NFL debut this past week in the loss to the Las Vegas Raiders, but the moment was overshadowed by a personal milestone.

On Tuesday, the former Ohio State standout announced his engagement to his girlfriend on Instagram. The couple can be seen standing in front of letters that likely helped him propose, along with red rose petals scattered across the ground.

“Charm is deceitful and beauty is passing, But a woman who fears the Lord, she shall be praised. ‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭31‬:‭30‬ ‭💍," Henderson wrote in the caption.

Henderson and Egbuka were teammates on the Ohio State Buckeyes football team for four seasons. Their tenure with the Buckeyes was capped off with a national championship title last season.

TreVeyon Henderson revealed 'surprising' difference between NFL and CFB

TreVeyon Henderson was one of the top running backs in the country during his tenure with the Ohio State Buckeyes. He rushed for over 1,000 yards twice in four seasons, including in the national championship-winning campaign in 2024. However, transitioning to the NFL was not an easy task.

After the Patriots' Week 1 game, Henderson said he was surprised by the level of physicality in the pro ranks.

“It’s definitely more physical than college. That surprised me. I took some shots out there,” Henderson told Mass Live.

Although the New England Patriots were defeated by the Raiders 20-13, Henderson had a good outing. He had five rushes for 27 yards and six catches for 24 yards.
