Neither Buffalo Bills coaches or players have any idea where offensive tackle Seantrel Henderson is, according to Tyler Dunne of The Buffalo News.

Henderson started all 16 games at right tackle for the Bills in his rookie season of 2014, then 10 more games last season before Crohn's disease forced him to the sideline.

He lost a reported 20 pounds and was hospitalized as he battled the severe abdominal pain that often comes with Crohn's disease, a type of inflammatory bowel disease.

Henderson hasn't attended voluntary workouts this offseason and head coach Rex Ryan admitted last week that he hasn't corresponded with Henderson since last season ended.

It's the same with teammates. Dunne reports that Henderson has sent a few text messages to teammates, but his whereabouts are unclear.

Asked whether Henderson is even on the team at this point, one player told Dunne, "Nobody knows."

Until something changes with Henderson's status, the Bills appear set to move forward with Jordan Mills as starting right tackle and Cyrus Kouandjio as depth.
