In December 2022, Henderson entered the NCAA transfer portal and committed to the University of Michigan.[6] Henderson explained his transfer decision: "I really just wanted to play with the best offensive line, and I knew Michigan had that. I wanted to get a chance to play with these guys and see how they do things."[7] He missed Michigan's spring practice while completing class work remotely at Arizona State and taking final exams in early May 2023.[8]
