He played cornerback at the University of Georgia and was drafted in the 4th round of the 2001 NFL Draft by the New York Jets.[1] He played for the New York Jets from 2001 to 2003. He is the cousin of American football player, Reggie Brown for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers of the NFL. He has two sons, Jalen Lyght Henderson (born 4-2-02) and Jamie Isaiah Henderson (born 10-2-04).

On April 3, 2004, Henderson got in a motorcycle accident.
