Henderson just finished his fourth season with the program, putting up the best campaign of his career. He now goes onto the open market in what should be his final season of eligibility.<\/p>\n<p>Henderson did not play for the Aztecs during the 2022 season as a true freshman, opting for a redshirt. Since then, he has taken the field in 33 games, three of which were starts. Forty-five tackles have followed, adding 12.5 tackles for a loss, and 10.5 sacks. You can even add a forced fumble and fumble recovery in there.<\/p>\n<p>There is no doubt about which season was Henderson\u2019s best, though. San Diego State saw him break out this past fall with nine tackles for a loss and seven sacks. Five of those sacks were in Mountain West play, with the other two coming in nonconference vs. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/sites\/golden-bear-report\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Cal<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/college\/northern-illinois-huskies\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Northern Illinois<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Henderson played high school football at North Las Vegas (NV) <a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/high-school\/canyon-springs-north-las-vegas-nv-21349\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Canyon Springs<\/a>, where he was a three-star prospect. He was the No. 1,289 overall recruit in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/rivals\/rankings\/industry-player\/football\/2022\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">2022 cycle<\/a>, according to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/news\/on3-industry-ratings-rankings\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Rivals Industry Ranking<\/a>, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.<\/p>\n<p>A few other Mountain West schools came after Henderson during his recruitment. Arizona, then a member of the Pac-12, extended an offer during his senior season. However, he stuck with San Diego State and signed with the Aztecs.<\/p>\n<p>Fast forward to the present and Henderson is on the move for the first time in his career. Finding productive pass rushers can be a chore at times for teams. Henderson can pull up what he accomplished in 2025 to prove he is someone to watch moving forward.<\/p>\n<p>To keep up with the latest players on the move, check out On3\u2019s Transfer Portal\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/transfer-portal\/wire\/football\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">wire<\/a>.\u00a0The\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/transferportal\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">On3 Transfer Portal Instagram account<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TransferPortal_\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter account<\/a>\u00a0are excellent resources to stay up to date with the latest moves.<\/p>\n<p>More on San Diego State, 2025 season under Sean Lewis<\/p>\n<p>This was year No. 2 of San Diego State under head coach <a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/rivals\/coach\/sean-lewis-105487\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Sean Lewis<\/a>.
