As of March 2008 has been capped 53 times and scored 8 tries for Scotland.

Henderson, who plays at centre (apart from one outing on the wing (vs Wales 2004) under Matt Williams) made his debut in the blue of Scotland in 2001 as a second-half replacement. The Scots won 32–10 against Ireland with Henderson scoring the fourth try.

Henderson played rugby union for West of Scotland at stand off as a youngster before moving to Glasgow Hawks, then Glasgow Warriors where he was preferred at centre. In March 2009, Henderson joined Montauban in France on a 3 year contract.[2] Due to financial difficulties and relegation from the Top 14 at Montauban, he was released at the end of 2010 season.

He is often called "Muffles" because of an unfortunate school haircut, and his usually silent nature
