Rookie Henderson has tallied five touchdowns during the current campaign
The New England Patriots matched their top unbeaten stretch from the Brady era as they overcame AFC East opponents the New York Jets by 13 points in professional football
Rookie TreVeyon Henderson shone brightly with three scores as the Patriots claimed an eighth straight win for the first time since iconic QB Tom Brady's final season with the franchise in the 2019 season
QB Drake Maye passed for 281 passing yards and a touchdown, completing 25 out of 34 attempts
The win increases the New England's advantage at the summit of the AFC East as they moved to a 9-2 record, with the New York bottom after dropping to two wins and eight losses
The opposing team had taken the lead at their home field with quarterback Fields rushing for a five-yard TD to finish the New York's opening drive
But the New England responded in the second quarter as the rookie rushed for two seven-yard TDs before the ball carrier grabbed a reception from Maye at the rear of the endzone in the middle of the third quarter to push the score to 21-7
"That was a crucial moment for him delivering, and it's been great for him to keep earning playing time," Maye commented on the rookie. "He desires to be great."
Fields threw to Metchie late in the third period to narrow the deficit for the visitors but Andy Borregales kicked a two kicks in the fourth quarter as the home side wrapped up the victory
