George Hunter Henderson (2 May 1880 – 27 January 1930) was Scottish international right half who made 64 appearances for Chelsea between 1906 and 1909.
He started his career at Queen's Park in Glasgow, before spells at Dundee and Rangers. He moved south of the border to Middlesbrough in 1905, before joining Chelsea a few months later. He featured regularly over the course of the 1906-07 season, and the first half of 1907-08, but it would be over a year before he appeared for the first team again, playing in a run of matches in February and March 1909. His only goal for the club came on Christmas Day 1907, in a 4-1 win against Liverpool at Anfield.
