Derrick Henry Fantasy

Tennessee Titans head coach Mike Vrabel said that running back Derrick Henry's work ethic allows him to be successful despite his heavy workload. Henry has led the league in rushing the last two seasons, running for 1,540 yards on 303 carries in 2019 and 2,027 yards on 378 carries last year. He became the eighth running back in history to pass the 2,000-yard mark in a single season, and the previous seven RBs haven't come close to reaching back-to-back 2,000-yard campaigns. The Titans and other teams may be more cautious with their backs with an added 17th game of the season, but it sounds as though Henry will continue to have a pretty hefty workload in this run-first offense. The 27-year-old is one of the toughest backs to bring down and will remain a high-end RB1 heading into 2021.

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry carried the ball 18 times for 40 yards in the team's wild-card round loss to the Ravens. He added three receptions for 11 yards. It was a sour close to the season after a dominant regular season campaign for Henry during which he racked up over 2,000 yards on the ground. As some consolation, Henry will remain under contract with the Titans in 2021, giving him another chance to contribute to a playoff run. There is no doubt, Henry will be one of the top picks in next year's fantasy drafts. All hail King Henry!

Tennessee Titans running back and NFL rushing leader Derrick Henry heads into next Saturday's wild-card showdown with the Ravens, a team he dismantled in the Divisional Round last year, averaging 5.36 yards per carry, with 17 touchdowns in 16 games this season. Henry's bruising mentality is going to be needed in what could be a physical battle of attrition. "It's been a very physical, very tough rivalry over the years," Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said on a conference call with Tennessee reporters on Wednesday, "and I don't think too much has changed over the years." Look for Henry to touch the ball 25-30 times in this playoff matchup.
