Seantrel Henderson stands out, as Bills O-Line starts strong

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (WIVB) - Rookie seventh round draft pick Seantrel Henderson has quietly had a very strong start to his NFL career.

After shutting down Pro Bowler Cameron Wake last Sunday, though, it’s time to take notice.

“Yeah, you initially see him and you think, “Wow.  He’s got all the talent in the world.”  And then you  say, “Well something’s got to be wrong with him,” and then he goes out and he’s beating us all down the field chasing plays and works hard day in and day out and he’s extremely smart in the room.  Nothing but good things to say about him,” said center Eric Wood.

Henderson settled in to the right tackle spot, once the Bills finished shuffling the offensive line late in training camp, moving last year’s starter Erik Pears to right guard.

“I played a little left tackle in preseason, now I’m at right tackle. Pears hasn’t played guard in, I believe, four years or something like that. I think for all the adjustments that we have made, I think we’ve been doing a pretty good job,” said Henderson.

The offensive line as a whole has been very strong through the first two weeks. While they have played well, Wood says there is more to their success, than just the five guys up front.

“It’s a group effort. The receivers are doing a great job of getting open, EJ’s doing a great job of getting the ball out of his hands. Tight ends and running backs when in on protection are doing a great job, that allows us to be successful,” said Wood.

The Bills host San Diego this Sunday at 1pm, looking to improve to 3-0 on the season.
