Headed your way

Could anyone please explain the grammar of the part in bold? Can I use 'heading' instead of that? Did I elaborate the second sentence correctly: "you should start seeing some more work is headed your way!"

?It seems the boss has taken a shine to you, kid. You should start seeing some more work headed your way!

  • He should have used "heading".
  • The "kid" can expect to see his workload increase, not expect to see that his workload is going to increase.
  • Either way, you have an adverbial participial phrase.

Yes, but headed is also correct. Headed is an adjective in the sentence.

I take "headed" as a verb in the clause some more work headed your way.

Am I correct?
