Henderson (groin) is back to work after missing Tuesday's practice, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.
Henderson is set to participate at FanFest, which the Panthers are hosting Wednesday at Bank of America Stadium. Thus, it looks like his absence at Tuesday's practice was just an exercise of caution.
Misses camp

Henderson (groin) was absent from Panthers camp Tuesday, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.
The 2020 first-round pick has missed time after tweaking his groin Monday. Henderson was traded to Carolina from Jacksonville in 2021 for a fifth-round pick and the Panthers were not willing to pick up his fifth-year option this offseason. Though the Florida product has had a rocky start to his NFL career, he's still slated to start at corner ahead of the coming season.
Fifth-year option not picked up
Published: 2023-05-01
Henderson's fifth-year option was not exercised by the Panthers on Monday, Mike Kaye of The Charlotte Observer reports.
Henderson will now be a free agent after the conclusion of the 2023 season. The cornerback struggled to find his footing with Jacksonville to open his career after the team selected him in the first round of the 2020 NFL Draft, and he now is going into his third season as a member of the Panthers. In 2022, Henderson recorded a career-high 58 tackles to go with six pass defenses (including two interceptions) and a forced fumble over 17 contests.
