Churns out 111 yards on 22 touches
Henry rushed 19 times for 82 yards and brought in all three of his targets for 29 receiving yards in Sunday's 24-19 loss to the Eagles.
Analysis: Henry didn't post a monstrous stat line like we have become accustomed to over the course of his storied career, but he still produced 111 yards from scrimmage without turning the ball over. The simple fact that this performance checked out as one of Henry's lowest fantasy scores of the season paints a picture of how dominant King Henry has been since aligning with Lamar Jackson in Baltimore this season. With the added rest from Baltimore's upcoming bye, Henry should be locked in for a strong…read more

Prolific rushing total in win
Henry rushed 24 times for 140 yards in the Ravens' 30-23 win over the Chargers on Monday night.
Analysis: Facing a defense that had ranked in the top half of the league in multiple metrics against the run, Henry ran roughshod throughout the night on his way to a robust 5.8 yards per carry. The bruising back crossed the century mark on the ground for the first time since Week 9 and for the sixth time overall in his Ravens debut campaign. Henry did go without a target for the second straight game after recording a catch in four consecutive contests from Weeks 7-10, but he's riding high going into a…read more

Punches in 15th TD of season
Henry carried the ball 13 times for 65 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 18-16 loss to the Steelers.
Analysis: It was Henry's lowest output since Week 1 from a yardage perspective, but he salvaged his day with a one-yard TD plunge in the second quarter. It was his 13th score of the season on the ground and 15th in total, the third time in his career he's reached that mark but the first since 2020. Henry has gotten into the end zone in 12 straight games dating back to his final game as a Titan last season, a streak he'll look to extend in Week 12 against the Chargers.

Another TD in high-scoring win
Henry rushed 16 times for 68 yards and a touchdown and secured his only target for three yards in the Ravens' 35-34 win over the Bengals on Thursday night.
Analysis: With Joe Burrow and Lamar Jackson trading touchdown passes throughout the night, Henry took more of a back seat than usual but still found a way to contribute a solid fantasy performance. The star running back scored on a one-yard run in the latter portion of the third quarter, his fourth TD in the last three games. Henry's rushing yardage total was his lowest since Week 1, but game script and the lack of a breakaway run played a part. Henry's fantasy stock will remain very elevated heading…read more

Thunders for two TDs in big win
Henry carried the ball 23 times for 106 yards and two touchdowns and caught his only target for 27 yards in Sunday's 41-10 win over the Broncos.
Analysis: It was another dominant performance for Henry, who has 11 rushing touchdowns and five 100-yard games through the season's first nine weeks. He blew past the 1,000-yard mark on the year with this effort, sitting at a league-leading 1,052 with eight games left on the Ravens' schedule. Henry seems poised for another big game in Week 10 against a Bengals defense he churned out 92 yards and a TD against in their first meeting of 2024.

Limited involvement in loss
Henry rushed the ball 11 times for 73 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 29-24 loss to the Browns. He added one reception on one target for four yards.
Analysis: Henry saw his fewest rushing attempts of the season and his lowest yardage total since Week 1. Baltimore was in a neutral or slightly negative game script for much of the game, but it was still surprising to see the typically run-heavy unit take to the air 38 times as opposed to tallying only 21 rushing attempts. Despite those drawbacks, Henry still managed a decent fantasy performance in large part due to a 39-yard run and two-yard touchdown plunge -- both of which came in the fourth quarter.…read more

Extends TD streak to seven games
Henry rushed 15 times for 169 yards while catching his only target for a 13-yard touchdown in Monday's 41-31 win over the Buccaneers.
Analysis: Henry was quiet in the first half but got rolling after halftime with bursts of 81 and 39 yards on the ground before putting an exclamation point on his night with a 13-yard receiving touchdown, which doubled as Lamar Jackson's fifth passing touchdown in Baltimore's latest stellar performance on offense. Henry has found the end zone in all seven of his games with the Ravens while rushing for at least 132 yards in four of the past five.

Steamrolls Commanders on Sunday
Henry carried the ball 24 times for 132 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 30-23 win over Washington.
Analysis: The former Titan continues to dominate, scoring multiple touchdowns with 100-plus rushing yards for the third time in the last four games. Henry is well on his way to another rushing crown with a league-leading 704 yards on the ground through six weeks, and his 5.9 yards per carry would be a career high if he can maintain that pace. He'll look to keep rolling in Week 7 against the Buccaneers.

Saves best for last in OT win
Henry carried the ball 15 times for 92 yards and a touchdown and caught his only target for four yards in Sunday's 41-38 overtime win over the Bengals.
Analysis: The star running back opened the scoring in the first quarter with a one-yard TD plunge, but Henry had minimal yardage until he took advantage of a tired Cincy defense to rumble 51 yards on his last carry of the day. The huge gain set up Justin Tucker for the game-winning field goal, a chip-shot 24-yarder in OT. Henry has 572 yards and six touchdowns on the ground through his first five games as a Raven, and he should see a hefty workload again in Week 6 against the Commanders.

The King shines on national stage
Henry ran for 199 yards and a touchdown on 24 carries while securing all three of his targets for 10 yards and another score in Sunday's 35-10 win over the Bills.
Analysis: King Henry ruled supreme on Sunday Night Football from start to finish with his best game as a member of the Ravens. The longtime Tennessee tailback ripped off a franchise-high touchdown run of 87 yards on Baltimore's first offensive play of the night. It was steady sailing from there, as Henry proceeded to rack up over 200 combined yards with two trips to the end zone in a statement win over Buffalo. The 30-year-old has rumbled for 480 yards and five touchdowns in just four games with his new…read more

Bulldozes Dallas
Henry rushed the ball 25 times for 151 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 28-25 win over the Cowboys. He added one catch on one target for 23 yards.
Analysis: Henry entered the game with only 32 total touches across two games, but the Ravens relied upon him heavily due to maintaining a comfortable lead for the majority of the game. He turned in a vintage performance by tallying a pair of rushes of more than 20 yards, highlighted by a 26-yard touchdown run during which he broke several tackles. He also chipped in a 29-yard carry early in the third quarter that was highlighted by a stiff arm on Caelen Carson. As his usage early on suggests, we…read more

Good use of opportunities in loss
Henry rushed 18 times for 84 yards and a touchdown and secured his only target for 12 yards in the Ravens' 26-23 loss to the Raiders on Sunday.
Analysis: Henry's afternoon was highlighted by a 29-yard run, and he grinded out 55 yards on his other 17 totes. One of those was a three-yard touchdown run early in the fourth quarter, his second score in as many games in a Ravens uniform. Henry has yet to hit the 20-carry mark with his new squad, but he'll hope to take advantage of a Cowboys defense that surrendered four total touchdowns to the Saints' Alvin Kamara when he faces them in a Week 3 road matchup.

Scores TD in Ravens debut
Henry rushed 13 times for 46 yards and a touchdown and failed to catch either of his two targets in the Ravens' 27-20 loss to the Chiefs on Thursday.
Analysis: Henry was featured on his first regular-season drive as a Raven, taking the first touch of the night from scrimmage for a two-yard run and eventually capping off the opening possession with a five-yard touchdown rush for the first points of the new season. The veteran offseason addition was sparsely utilized after that point, however, logging only eight more carries the rest of the way, in part due to game script.

Henry is set to lead Baltimore's backfield Thursday against the Chiefs, despite not playing in the preseason, Ryan Mink of the Ravens' official site reports.
Analysis: Henry will be making his Ravens debut Thursday, and Baltimore understandably didn't want to add any unnecessary tread to the 30-year-old running back's tires during the preseason after he handled 1,529 regular-season carries over the past five years with the Titans, leading the NFL in rushing attempts four times in that span.

Henry is signing a two-year contract with the Ravens, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: It's a match that's been rumored all offseason, after the Ravens infamously attempted just six RB carries in an AFC Championship Game loss to Kansas City. For Henry, it'll be the first change of scenery in his pro career, following an eight-year stint with the Titans that featured five 1,000-yard rushing seasons, including three over 1,500 and one over 2,000.

Likely to leave Titans
Henry doesn't seem likely to stay with the Titans, though GM Ran Carthon suggested Tuesday that the team will at least have conversations about re-signing the running back, ESPN's Turron Davenport reports.
Analysis: ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Monday that none of the big-name RBs eligible for free agency in March are expected to receive franchise tags, including Henry. New Titans coach Brian Callahan has expressed interest in re-signing the back, but Henry's stated emphasis on winning a Super Bowl could cause him to look elsewhere than Tennessee.

Could fit with new coach?
New Titans coach Brian Callahan suggested Friday that he'd like to work with Henry, who is scheduled for unrestricted free agency this offseason, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports. "A player like [Henry' fits into any offense," Callahan said. "If he's open to a return, that fits for us. I'm never going to reject good players. "
Analysis: The hiring of a head coach that previously served as offensive coordinator for the pass-first Bengals has been taken by some as a(nother) sign Henry is likely to leave Tennessee. Callahan does have a point, however, in part because Henry is probably a better receiver and blocker than he gets credit for. The two other big factors here are: A) money, and B) the possibility Henry wants to play for a team with better Super Bowl odds in 2024. He turned 30 at the beginning of January, three days…read more

Henry rushed the ball 19 times for 153 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 28-20 win over Jacksonville.
Analysis: In what is likely to be his final game as a Titan, Henry delivered a vintage performance to help the team to an upset win. His longest gain of the day went for 69 yards on a run up the middle, which set up a touchdown to DeAndre Hopkins two plays later. Henry also took a trip to the end zone himself earlier in the contest, ripping off an 18-yard run off the left end for his 12th touchdown of the year.

Henry rushed the ball 12 times for 42 yards in Sunday's 26-3 loss to the Texans. He was targeted once but did not record a catch.
Analysis: Henry was limited by game script, as the Titans found themselves down by 20 points before halftime. He was held to his lowest carry total since Week 11 as a result and was held under 50 rushing yards for the third time in his last four games. He's masked his yardage shortcomings by finding the end zone twice in four of his last six games, though he's become an unreliable weekly option down the stretch of the fantasy season.

Bounces back with two TDs
Henry had 19 carries for 88 yards with a touchdown and one reception for 11 yards against Seattle on Sunday. He also completed his only pass attempt for a 12-yard touchdown in the 20-17 loss.
Analysis: Henry rebounded quickly from his worst game of the season against Houston last week by scoring both of Tennessee's touchdowns in Sunday's narrow loss to Seattle. The 29-year-old got a stagnant Titans offense going in the first quarter when he lined up out of the gun and threw his second passing touchdown of the season.

Analysis: Henry saw plenty of opportunity -- he earned at least 20 touches for the fourth time in his last eight games -- but that was the end of the good news. He had neither a rush attempt nor a reception of more than six yards, leaving him with his lowest yardage total of the season. Henry should have a chance to bounce back in Week 16 against a Seahawks defense that has been susceptible to opposing rushing attacks this season.

Analysis: It's notable that Henry isn't listed with an injury designation on Thursday's practice report, given that he left this past Sunday's game against the Colts to be evaluated for a concussion. Since then, Wyatt relays that Henry has been feeling good, with no concussion symptoms, and will be ready to play in Monday night's game against the Dolphins.

He tallied long gains of 18 and 15 yards and also found the end zone from one and 10 yards away. It was a needed bounce-back effort for Henry, as he entered Sunday's contest with only 238 rushing yards across his last four games combined.

Henry (ankle) was listed as a full participant on Thursday's practice estimate, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: Henry was deemed limited in Wednesday's session, but his full listing a day later indicates that the running back's initial listing was indicative of load management rather than an injury that could impact his Week 12 availability. He thus is slated to continue to lead the Titans backfield Sunday against the Panthers, a role that has led to him logging double-digit carries in all 10 games that he's played in, though he's been held to 62 yards on 21 carries over his last two outings.

At this stage, the Titans haven't suggested that Henry's Week 12 availability is in danger, and it's possible that his listed limitations Wednesday were maintenance-related.

Analysis: The Titans had the ball for just over 23 minutes and ran only 38 offensive plays in the blowout loss. That limited the potential for their skill-position players to produce, and Henry's line was illustrative of that. Positively, he still led Tennessee's backfield in carries and yards.

His rush attempts tied a season low, while his yardage tally was only higher than his 20-yard effort versus the Browns in Week 3.

The bruising back scored his fourth touchdown of the campaign just past the halfway point of the second quarter as well on a two-yard run, making it an above-average fantasy night.

Analysis: Henry had seen his production dip in every game this season, though he reversed that trend with his first 100-rushing yard performance of the season. He ripped off several big runs, with his longest gain being a 29-yard run into the end zone, during which he ran through several potential tacklers.

Analysis: Henry was held to minus-7 yards on four first-half rushing attempts, then saw limited work in the second half as the Titans mustered just three points against the stout Browns defense. The star running back will look to bounce back in Week 4, when the Titans return home to host the Bengals. Cleveland has allowed only one offensive touchdown through three games, so this poor performance can largely be chalked up to a difficult matchup, though Tennessee's poor offensive line play so far this…read more

Healthy for tough Week 3 matchup
Henry (toe) was a full participant in practice Friday and doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Browns, John Glennon of the Nashville Post reports.
Analysis: While the Browns will be adjusting to life without star running back Nick Chubb (knee), Tennessee's workhorse is good to go for this Week 3 clash. Henry was a limited participant Wednesday before missing Thursday's session, and while that absence was reportedly due primarily to rest, it was still reassuring to see Henry get in a full session Friday to prove he's healthy heading into a matchup with a Cleveland defense that's allowing 65.0 rushing yards per game, which is tied with Tennessee for…read more

Henry (toe) returned to practice Friday, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Henry was limited in Wednesday's practice before taking the day off Thursday. His return to practice Friday puts Henry on track to play Sunday against the Browns. The 29-year-old has rushed 40 times for 143 yards and one touchdown through two games while adding five catches for 71 yards on seven targets.

Misses practice Thursday
Henry's absence from practice Thursday was attributed to a combination of his toe issue and rest, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: Henry was a limited participant Wednesday, and the running back's listed reasons for his absence Thursday suggest that he was likely having his practice reps managed ahead of Sunday's game agains the Browns. Friday's injury report will reveal whether or not Henry approaches the Week 3 contest with an injury designation, or if he's fully cleared to play.

Sits out practice Thursday
Henry (toe), who was a limited participant Wednesday, didn't practice Thursday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: Henry's downgrade in practice participation makes the running back's status worth monitoring closely as Sunday's game against the Browns approaches. It's possible that Henry's absence was maintenance-related rather than indicative of a setback, but either way, Friday's injury report should provide added clarity with regard to his Week 3 status. If Henry is limited to any extent this weekend, Tyjae Spears and Julius Chestnut would be next up for added touches in the Titans backfield.

Limited by toe issue
Henry was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice due to a toe injury, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: Henry is nursing an injury after playing 46 of 65 snaps on offense in this past Sunday's 27-24 overtime win over the Chargers en route to rushing 25 times for 80 yards and a touchdown while adding three catches for 15 yards. The Titans haven't provided any indication that the running back is in any danger of missing this weekend's game against the Browns, but he'll presumably need to log a full practice by Friday in order to avoid taking an injury tag into the weekend.

First touchdown of 2023
Henry rushed the ball 25 times for 80 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-24 overtime win over the Chargers. He added three receptions for 15 yards.
Analysis: Henry was predictably more involved in the offense in Week 2 after seeing only 15 carries in the season opener. He had two big plays in the game, including a 23-yard carry in the second quarter that helped set up a field goal. One possession earlier, he leaped across the goal line from one yard away to record both his and the team's first touchdown of the season. Henry has had limited production on the ground by his standards to begin the new campaign, but he has 214 total yards of production.

Big play as pass catcher
Henry rushed the ball 15 times for 63 yards in Sunday's 16-15 loss to the Saints. He added two receptions on three targets for 56 yards.
Analysis: Despite facing only a small deficit throughout the game, the Titans surprisingly abandoned the run in the second half, limiting Henry's workload. He made up for that with a few big plays, the longest of which came on a 46-yard gain on a screen pass late in the second quarter, ultimately setting up a field goal. Though his production came in an unexpected way, Henry put together a fine performance and should be more involved in Week 2 against the Chargers.

Absorbing new offense
Henry, who has spent more time in Nashville this offseason compared to previous years, has been been at the team facility for all six of the Titans' voluntary OTA sessions, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: The Titans' No. 1 back noted that his increased offseason presence stems from wanting to get up to speed with the team's new offense under coordinator Tim Kelly. Per Wyatt, Henry, who logged 349 carries in 16 games in 2022, "looks to be in great shape" at this stage of the offseason, while also looking "smooth running and catching the ball." As the coming season approaches, Henry is poised to maintain his high-volume role in Tennessee's offense, while 2023 third-round pick Tyjae Spears and 2022…read more

Tops 100 yards in loss
Henry rushed the ball 30 times for 109 yards in Saturday's 20-16 loss to the Jaguars. He added one reception for 19 yards.
Analysis: As expected, Henry was the focal point of the Tennessee offense, and he tallied his highest carry total since Week 8. He wasn't particularly efficient, but he helped the Titans maintain a lead for the majority of the game. Henry also topped 100 rushing yards for the fourth consecutive contest, which brought his yardage total on the campaign to 1,538. Also important for fantasy purposes, Henry racked up a career-high 33 receptions across 16 games. He'll return to Tennessee in 2023 and is likely…read more

Analysis: Prior to sitting out last Thursday versus the Cowboys, Henry managed two limited sessions due to hip injury. With a full practice under is belt to start Week 18 prep, he's now in line to reclaim his role as the Titans' unquestioned top running back ahead of Saturday's scheduled 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff.

Henry (hip), who is listed as doubtful for Thursday's game against the Cowboys, is not expected to suit up, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Henry is listed as doubtful despite coming off back-to-back limited practices, and it appears that Hassan Haskins and Julius Chestnut will be tasked with leading Tennessee's backfield versus Dallas' stout defensive front. The outcome of Thursday's contest won't impact the Titans' chances of attaining the AFC South crown, so Henry's focus may well simply be making sure he's at 100 percent form for Week 18's pivotal divisional matchup against the Jaguars.

Henry rushed the ball 23 times for 126 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's 19-14 loss to the Texans. He also recorded two receptions for zero yards.
Analysis: Henry entered the game having rushed for more than 200 yards in each of his last four games against the Texans. He appeared to be in line for a fifth consecutive massive performance when he ripped off a 48-yard touchdown run midway through the first quarter. However, he managed only two additional runs of more than 10 yards for the rest of the game, which led to a strong but unspectacular performance.

Henry carried the ball 21 times for 104 yards and a touchdown and caught all four of his targets for 59 yards in Sunday's 17-14 loss to the Chargers.
Analysis: The running back led the Titans in both rushing yards and receiving yards but didn't get much help from the rest of his offense. Henry racked up his second straight 100-yard game and his seventh of the season, but he continues to look up at the Raiders' Josh Jacobs for the NFL rushing crown. However, Henry could close the gap significantly in Week 16 against a Texans defense he's torched for more than 200 rushing yards each of the last four times he's faced it.

Henry rushed the ball 17 times for 121 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 36-22 loss to the Jaguars. He added three receptions on five targets for 34 yards.
Analysis: Henry looked to be taking over the game early, as he managed 82 rushing yards and a touchdown through the Titans' first three drives. Needless to say, he slowed considerably from there and also had a key fumble late in the second quarter that arguably changed the trajectory of the game. Despite that crucial mistake, Henry managed his first 100-yard rushing performance since Week 9 and his first rushing score since Week 11.

Henry rushed the ball 11 times for 30 yards in Sunday's 35-10 loss to the Eagles. He added two receptions for eight yards.
Analysis: Henry saw seven of his 11 rushes in the first half, as the Titans were down multiple scores for the entirety of the last two quarters. He was limited to a season low in carries as a result and was held to under 40 rushing yards for the second consecutive game. Henry has also failed to reach the end zone in three of his last four contests, which, combined with his lack of involvement as a pass catcher, has highlighted his relatively fragile floor.

Henry rushed 17 times for 38 yards and caught all three of his targets for 79 yards in Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Bengals.
Analysis: Keeping Henry in check on the ground was key to Cincinnati's success in this one, as the star running back mustered his lowest rushing yardage total since Week 2. He made up for the lackluster rushing game by leading the Titans in receiving yards. Most of Henry's yardage came on a 69-catch in the second quarter.

Hefty workload in win
Henry rushed 28 times for 87 yards and a touchdown, brought in both targets for 45 yards and completed two pass attempts for four yards and a touchdown in the Titans' 27-17 win over the Packers on Thursday night.
Analysis: Dontrell Hilliard was the only other back to register a carry for the Titans on the night, and he logged exactly one rush attempt. That equated to a particularly busy night for Henry, who'd logged just a combined 36 carries in the previous pair of games.

Analysis: Henry kicked off the week with limited on-field work Wednesday due to a foot issue, while his absence one day later was related to rest.

Analysis: In this past weekend's 17-10 win over the Texans, Henry was on the field for 43 snaps on offense while carrying the ball 32 times for 219 yards and two touchdowns and catching his only target for nine yards. With no reported injuries in the contest, it's possible that Henry's listed limitations Wednesday were maintenance-related. That said, given that a foot injury derailed the running back's 2021 campaign, his status is now worth tracking ahead of Sunday's game against Kansas City.

Henry carried the ball 32 times for 219 yards and two touchdowns and caught his only target for nine yards in Sunday's 17-10 win over the Texans.

In each of Tennessee's last four meetings with its AFC South rivals, the 28-year-old power back has run for at least 200 yards, and he's the first RB in history to run for 150-plus yards and two TDs in four straight games against the same opponent.

Another solid rushing performance
Henry rushed the ball 30 times for 128 yards in Sunday's 19-10 win over the Colts. He added three receptions for 10 yards.
Analysis: The Titans followed a familiar game script, as they took a lead against the Colts and used Henry to run out the clock in the final two quarters. As a result, he reached the 30-carry threshold for the first time this season and surpassed 100 yards for the third consecutive game. Also of note was Henry's ability to pick up chunk gains, as his longest rushes of the day went for 23 and 21 yards -- doubling his number of carries that have gone for 20 or more yards on the season.

With D'Onta Foreman having signed with the Panthers, Hassan Haskins and Dontrell Hilliard are in line to compete for RB touches behind Henry, who remains the Titans' clear-cut top back, Mike Moraitis of USA Today reports.
Analysis: When healthy, Henry -- who was limited to eight regular season games in 2021 -- is destined to see the bulk of Tennessee's carries, a context that probably won't lead to regular volume for his backups. That said, if the Titans are inclined to lessen his workload at all, or if the 28-year-old (who has indicated that he's past his right foot issue) misses time for any reason, Henry's understudies would see an uptick in fantasy value.

Analysis: Vrabel wouldn't tip his hand regarding if Henry will be available for Saturday's divisional-round game against the Bengals, as the Titans plan to reassess the running back Friday before deciding on his status. In order for Henry to be eligible to play this weekend, Tennessee will have to activate him from IR no later than 4 p.m. ET on Friday, so clarity on his availability (or lack thereof) should arrive by that point. If the Titans elect to hold Henry out for their postseason opener, D'Onta…read more

Takes contact without setbacks
Henry (foot) responded well to contact Tuesday and will now continue practicing throughout the rest of the week, with the Titans likely waiting until Friday to decide on his availability for Saturday's divisional-round game against Cincinnati, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The fact that the Titans made Henry available to speak to the media Wednesday might be taken as another sign he's headed in the right direction, especially after the running back said that his surgically repaired foot didn't feel any different than it did pre-injury, despite him having a steel plate inserted a couple months ago, per Davenport. Henry will still need to make it through a couple more practices without setbacks, and he may not quite be in peak condition after the long layoff, but…read more

Practicing, taking contact
Henry (foot) is practicing Tuesday, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: He's in pads, taking contact and appears to be running full speed, but that doesn't necessarily make him a lock for Saturday's game against Cincinnati, with coach Mike Vrabel cautioning earlier Tuesday that the Titans would need to see Henry practice throughout the week before making a decision. Given that he's still on IR, albeit with a designation to return, Henry won't be listed on the daily practice reports.

Henry (foot) remains on IR ahead of Sunday's game against the Texans, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: With Henry -- who last suited up in Week 8 -- not moved to the active roster Saturday, the star running back will target a potential return to the lineup in the Titans' postseason opener. In his continued absence, D'Onta Foreman and Dontrell Hilliard will head the team's rushing attack in Week 18, with Jordan Wilkins on hand in reserve.

Decision pending for Sunday
The Titans have until 4:00 p.m. ET on Saturday to activate Henry (foot) from injured reserve and make him available for Sunday's game at Houston, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Henry has been on the reserve list since breaking a bone in his right foot on Oct. 31 that required surgery. The Titans designated the running back for return from IR only Wednesday, opening a 21-day window to evaluate him at practice. Speaking to the media Friday, coach Mike Vrabel said the team has "some time to make that decision," but after back-to-back sessions at their indoor facility, they'll "see where he is at" Saturday to get a sense of where Henry stands in his recovery.

The Titans now have a 21-day window to evaluate Henry's health in practice while not having him count toward the 53-man roster until he's officially activated from IR.

Set to resume practicing Wednesday
Henry (foot) is expected to participate in practice Wednesday, though he's viewed as a "long shot" to be activated from injured reserve ahead of Sunday's regular-season finale in Houston, Dianna Russini of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Before Henry is eligible to mix into drills with his healthy teammates, the Titans must first designate him to return from IR, a transaction that will open a 21-day window for the team to evaluate him for a spot on the 53-man roster.

Could be back Week 18
The Titans anticipate Henry (foot) will ready to return from injured reserve as early as the team's Week 18 matchup with the Texans, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Henry has been sidelined since undergoing surgery Nov. 1 to address a broken fifth metatarsal bone in his right foot after he picked up the injury a day earlier in the Titans' Week 8 win over the Colts. Initial estimates followed surgery placed Henry's recovery time at 6-to-10 weeks, and though Rapoport reports that rehab has gone well over the past month and a half, the reigning NFL rushing champion still looks to be trending toward the longer end of that timeline.

Early January return possible
The Titans have optimism that Henry could return from injured reserve in early January if all goes well in his recovery from right foot surgery, Dianna Russini of ESPN reports.
Analysis: The Titans play Jan. 2 in Week 17 and close out their regular-season schedule a week later, so counting on the star running back to make a splash during the fantasy playoffs remains a speculative proposition. However, with Tennessee heading into Week 11 with an 8-2 record, this news is relevant to the team's postseason prospects. For now, Henry remains on IR, with D'Onta Foreman, Adrian Peterson and Jeremy McNichols (concussion) headlining the backfield in the meantime.

May not return this season
The Titans remain hopeful that Henry (foot) can play again at some point in 2021, though a source familiar with the situation believes it "would be very surprising if [the running back] made it back this season," Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Regardless, Henry is out indefinitely, and in his absence, the Titans will proceed with a backfield committee that currently includes Adrian Peterson, Jeremy McNichols and D'Onta Foreman. Henry injured his right foot last Sunday against the Colts, was placed on injured reserve Monday and underwent surgery Tuesday.

Analysis: Per Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site, head coach Mike Vrabel declined to put an official timeline on Henry's recovery, though it's safe to say that the star running back is out indefinitely. The estimate put forth by Rapoport indicates that Henry has a chance to return before the end of the season, but for now, Tennessee will need to find a way to fill the void created by the looming absence of one of the NFL's leading MVP candidates.

Rare dud in overtime win
Henry rushed rushed 28 times for just 68 yards and did not receive a target in Sunday's 34-31 overtime win over the Colts.
Analysis: Henry couldn't get anything rolling against the Colts, which helps explain how Tennessee fell behind 14-0 in the first quarter. The bruising back did appear to get some medical attention on his right foot towards the end of the second half, but he promptly returned to the field and there were no reports of an injury after the game, so his managers appeared to have dodged a dangerous bullet. Henry will look to get back on track in a showdown against the Rams next Sunday.

Slowed in win
Henry recorded 29 rushes for 86 yards in Sunday's 27-3 win over the Chiefs. He added two receptions for 16 yards and also threw a five-yard touchdown.
Analysis: Henry was in a surprisingly beneficial game script, but he couldn't record his sixth consecutive effort of over 100 rushing yards. He was limited to only two gains of more than 10 yards and averaged only 3.0 yards per carry. Henry did manage the first passing touchdown of his career when he lobbed a pass into the back of the end zone to MyCole Pruitt to salvage his performance. Despite a down effort, Henry should be in line for another heavy workload in a Week 8 matchup against the Colts.

Three-touchdown effort
Henry ran for 130 yards and three touchdowns on 29 carries against Jacksonville on Sunday.
Analysis: Henry didn't get any chances as a pass catcher due to Tennessee throwing just 21 targeted passes, but his fantasy investors will always accept that tradeoff if it comes with 31 fantasy points on the ground alone. This game marks the fourth in row in which Henry breezed past triple-digit yardage on the ground, and there's a chance he gets more pass-catching opportunities when the Titans take on the Bills in Week 6.

Henry rushed 28 times for 113 yards and caught all three of his targets for 31 yards in Sunday's 25-16 win over the Colts. He also ran in a two-point conversion.
Analysis: Henry picked up where he left off in the second half of last Sunday's win, garnering 10 touches in the first quarter alone. With the workhorse remaining his physical, productive self, Henry again got the ball over 30 times, helping Tennessee's offense compensate for the early exit of top wideout A.J. Brown (hamstring).

However, he keyed a comeback effort for the Titans in the second half by finding the end zone from 60, nine and one yards away.

However, this season's contest was a different story, as Henry was limited to 51 total yards, with his longest gain of the day going for just eight yards.

The fact that 98 yards and a 4.3 yards-per-carry mark is considered a "down game" is just a testament to how dominant the physically imposing back has been this season.

Even so, he managed to break free for big yardage on a few carries, including gains of 17 and nine yards in the fourth quarter. Most importantly, he also found the end zone for the fourth consecutive game and now has seven touchdowns on the campaign.

Analysis: Henry took a back seat to quarterback Ryan Tannehill in the first half, as Tannehill accounted for all 21 of Tennessee's first-half points with a trio of touchdown passes. It was all Henry after the break, though, as he rumbled for a 94-yard touchdown to retake the lead early in the fourth quarter and won the game with a five-yard touchdown in overtime. The superstar running back has scored multiple rushing touchdowns in three consecutive games, and Henry's averaging 117.6 yards per game on the…read more

Two TDs in Tuesday's win
Henry registered 57 rushing yards and two touchdowns on 19 carries, adding a six-yard catch during Tuesday's 42-16 win against the Bills.
Analysis: The 2019 NFL rushing champion was rather inefficient in posting a 3.0 yards-per-carry average against Buffalo's top-10 rush defense, but he did cash in with second and fourth-quarter touchdowns to help lift Tennessee to its first 4-0 start since 2008. Buffalo made things interesting with a 22-yard TD pass from Josh Allen to T.J. Yeldon with 10 minutes to go in the fourth quarter, but Henry's nine-yard TD run with 3:57 remaining reverted the Titans' lead to three possessions on the subsequent…read more

Week 5 game still scheduled
Tuesday's scheduled contest between Henry and the Titans and the Bills is on track to proceed as planned, barring further developments, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: That said, the status of the slated 7:00 ET kickoff should still be monitored by fantasy managers, with Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com noting that "another positive (COVID-19 test Monday) would likely throw things into limbo." The Titans' Week 4 game against the Steelers was moved to Week 7 after multiple members of the Tennessee organization tested positive for COVID-19.

Week 4 matchup postponed
Henry and the Titans will not be taking on the Steelers in Week 4 after additional personnel within the organization have tested positive for COVID-19, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The initial plan was simply to reschedule the Oct. 4 matchup for Monday or Tuesday, but it now appears both teams will receive a Week 4 bye and the game will be rescheduled at a yet-to-be-determined date. Practice facilities will be closed in Tennessee until further notice after an additional player and personnel member returned positive tests, with a re-open unlikely until the outbreak has been contained.

Finds end zone twice
Henry carried the ball 26 times for 119 yards and two touchdowns in the team's Week 3 win over the Vikings. He added two receptions for 11 yards.
Analysis: Henry topped 100 yards for the second time in his first three games. However, he managed to find the end zone for the first time, punching in a pair of one-yard scores to play a major role in the Titans' narrow victory. While it's no surprise Henry has dominated rushing work out of the team's backfield, he also has five receptions early on this season and has recorded multiple receptions on two occasions. Though that doesn't place him among the elite pass-catching running backs in the league,…read more

Held in check by Jags
Henry ran for 84 yards on 25 rush attempts during Sunday's 33-30 win against the Jaguars. He was also targeted twice in the passing game but recorded zero receptions.
Analysis: The Jacksonville defense stepped up against the NFL's leading rusher from 2019, containing Henry to a meager 3.4 yards per rush after he accumulated an absurd 7.0 yards per carry in his four preceding outings against the Jaguars. Combining Sunday's results with Henry's Week 1 performance (3.7 YPC), the 2019 Pro Bowler is off to an inefficient start to 2020, though he is still benefitting from a gargantuan workload. The 26-year-old has already garnered 59 offensive touches through Tennessee's…read more

Breaks century mark on the ground
Henry ran for 116 yards on 31 carries while hauling in all three of his targets for 15 yards during Monday's 16-14 win against the Broncos.
Analysis: The 2019 NFL rushing champion did not have his most efficient showing on the ground Monday night, grinding his way to 3.7 yards per carry on a massive workload, but he did pick up five first-down gains during the contest. His pass-catching upside was higher than usual in the opener, as Henry's three receptions tied his season high from 18 regular-season and playoff games during 2019. Coming up in Week 2, Henry will face a Jaguars defense against which he accumulated 203 rushing yards and three…read more

Henry continues to focus on getting better as a receiver, Erik Bacharach of the Tennessean reports.
Analysis: Henry was spotted working with running backs coach Tony Dews during practice Tuesday, trying to improve his ability to catch passes while on the run. Henry has never caught more than 18 passes in a season, but it has been pointed out on a few occasions during training camp that he is focused on improving that aspect of his game.

Getting work in passing game
Henry has caught the ball well early in camp, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: Henry has never recorded more than 18 receptions in a season, so the idea that he'll suddenly become a major factor in the passing game could just be camp chatter. On the other hand, the Titans lack experience in their backfield behind Henry, as rookie Darrynton Evans is currently projected to be the primary pass-catcher out of the backfield. If Henry, who already led the league with 303 carries last year, can increase his work as a receiver, he could challenge for the top spot in total touches.

Lands four-year deal
Henry agreed Wednesday with the Titans on a four-year deal worth $50 million, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Henry's new deal with Tennessee includes $25.5 million guaranteed and comes on the heels of the organization inking quarterback Ryan Tannehill to a long-term pact earlier this offseason. With that, Henry, who was the NFL's leading rusher in 2019 with 1,540 yards, will continue to head the Titans' backfield and remains a top option at his position in both real-life and fantasy terms.

Nearing extension
The Titans and Henry are closing in on a long-term contract in advance of Wednesday's 4 p.m. ET deadline, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: The 2019 rushing champ, Henry powered Tennessee to the AFC Championship Game back in January after racking up 1,540 yards and 16 touchdowns on the ground. He received the non-exclusive franchise tag in March, and while talks between his representation and the team ensued, he wasn't expected to get an extension as recently as Tuesday, per Adam Schefter of ESPN. With an extension now on the precipice of being finalized, Henry may soon be locked up by the Titans for the foreseeable future.

Not getting long-term deal
Henry and the Titans aren't expected to reach a long-term agreement before Wednesday's extension deadline for franchise-tagged players, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Henry is scheduled to make $10.27 million in 2020 and then become a free agent next offseason. His decision to sign the franchise tender back in April means the Titans can fine him if he holds out, so it isn't clear if the running back is considering that option. The team could use a franchise tag again next offseason, with the number going up to around $12.32 million. It's possible Henry and the Titans could reach an agreement -- even if it's only verbal -- to avoid the tag next year.

Working toward contract
Titans GM Jon Robinson had a phone call with Henry's agent last week to discuss a new contract, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: The team's use of a franchise tag sets up a July 15 deadline for negotiations on a multi-year deal. Henry's decision to sign the franchise tender suggests he isn't planning a holdout, but there's no question he'll be annoyed if he ends up playing out the season under the tag.

Henry signed his franchise-tag tender Thursday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Henry's decision to sign the tender hints at confidence in working out a multi-year contract before the July 15 deadline, though Titans general manager Jon Robinson suggested Wednesday that the two parties will wait until summer to hammer out details. Any concern about a holdout can probably be put to rest, as there's no advantage to signing the tender if Henry would consider missing games in the absence of a long-term deal.

Analysis: A previous report made it sound like negotiations were imminent, but it now appears the Titans will wait until after the draft and possibly longer. The team placed a franchise tag on Henry in mid-March, providing four months to discuss an extension before the July 15 deadline.

Discussing contract extension
General manager John Robinson said Wednesday that he wants to sign Henry to a long-term contract, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: The two sides have three and a half months remaining before the July 15 deadline for franchise-tagged players to sign extensions. Henry has made it clear he wants to stay in Tennessee, where his late-season 2018 breakout carried over to a massive campaign in 2019. Big contracts for running backs have mostly turned out disastrous in recent seasons, but Henry has the advantage of starting his pro career with lighter workloads in offenses that also featured DeMarco Murray in the backfield.

Receives non-exclusive tag
The Titans applied the non-exclusive franchise tag on Henry.
Analysis: As a result, the running back can receive offers from other teams, which the Titans would then have the opportunity to match. In a scenario in which Tennessee declines to match, the Titans would be due two first-round draft picks. With that in mind, both John Glennon of The Athletic and Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site deem it unlikely that another team will extend Henry an offer.

Henry is now slated to reprise his role as Tennessee's top back and will be taking handoffs from QB Ryan Tannehill, who the team has signed to a contract extension.

Eyeing Zeke's contract
Henry said last week on "The Rich Eisen Show" on Fox Sports Radio that Ezekiel Elliott's six-year, $90 million contract is "the floor" for what he'll be seeking this offseason.
Analysis: To be fair, Eisen asked a leading question and Henry merely agreed. There are a slew of teams with enough cap space to hand the 26-year-old a contract similar to Elliott's, but recent history mostly shows buyer's remorse with regard to long-term deals for running backs. Henry has one major advantage over Todd Gurley, Devonta Freeman and other positional counterparts: he averaged just 180 touches over his first three seasons before his count ballooned to 409 (including playoffs) in the final…read more

However, he was largely scripted out of the second half gameplan as the Titans fell behind, receiving only three carries in the final two quarters.

Henry rushed 30 times for 195 yards, threw a three-yard touchdown pass, and brought in both his targets for seven yards in the Titans' 28-12 divisional-round win over the Ravens on Saturday.
Analysis: The final rushing numbers encapsulate how dominant Henry was against yet another elite defensive unit, while his unlikely touchdown pass was a perfect combination of precisely timed playcalling by offensive coordinator Arthur Smith and flawless execution by Henry on a jump pass to Corey Davis.

Henry carried the ball 34 times for 182 yards and a touchdown in the team's wild-card round win over New England. He added one reception for 22 yards.
Analysis: Henry was the dominant force behind the Titans' upset win, accounting for 204 total yards. He had a number of long rushes, but was particularly dominant on the team's final drive before halftime, ripping off runs of 29, 11 and nine yards while also recording his lone reception. He capped off that drive with a one-yard touchdown plunge to give the Titans a lead that they would never relinquish. Henry will look to continue his impressive form at Baltimore in the second round of the playoffs.

The Titans will check on Henry early Sunday just to make sure his hamstring isn't an issue, but if he gets the green light from trainers, it looks like he'll enter Week 15 without any limitations.

Henry, who carried 18 times for 103 yards and two touchdowns and caught one pass for six yards in Sunday's 42-21 win over the Raiders, worked through a hamstring issue during the contest, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: Henry sat out practice Wednesday and was limited Thursday, but missing Sunday's game wasn't a consideration, with the running back noting afterward, "my leg is going to have to be halfway off for me to stop."

Pair of touchdowns
Henry ran the ball 18 times for 103 yards and a touchdown in the team's Week 14 win over the Raiders. He also added one reception for six yards.
Analysis: Henry put together another impressive performance, finding the end zone for the fifth consecutive game and surpassing 100 yards on the ground for the fourth time in as many games. He scored on carries of 12 and 10 yards, though his longest rush of the day was a 24-yard effort that came late in third quarter. Henry has now surpassed 1,000 yards for the second season in a row and should be in position to produce again as the Titans take on the Texans in Week 15.

Analysis: At this point, it's unclear if the Titans are simply managing Henry's practice reps or if the hamstring issue that limited him in two practices last week is something that might impact his status for Sunday's game in Oakland. A return to practice Thursday -- in any capacity -- would no doubt ease the concerns of fantasy managers who have been relying on Tennessee's top back, who has been on a tear of late.

Tops 150 total yards
Henry ran the ball 26 times for 149 yards and one touchdown in the team's Week 13 win over the Colts. He also added three receptions for 17 yards.
Analysis: Henry once again ripped off a number of big runs, the most impactful of which came on his 13-yard touchdown halfway through the third quarter. Earlier that drive, he rumbled for a 34-yard run -- his longest of the day -- to push the Titans into Colts territory. Henry has now scored at least once in four consecutive games, while also recording a run of 30 or more yards in four of his last five contests. He will have another exploitable matchup in Week 14 against the Raiders.

Good to go against Colts
Henry (hamstring) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Colts after practicing fully Friday, Erik Bacharach of The Tennessean reports.
Analysis: Henry is poised to head the Titans' rushing attack this weekend. He's been on a roll of late, racking up 347 rushing yards and four touchdowns on 42 carries over his last two outings while adding three catches for 19 yards in that span. He'll look to keep that run going Sunday against an Indianapolis defense that has surrendered an average of 97 yards per game on the ground.

Participates in practice Thursday
Henry (hamstring), who was limited in practice Wednesday, "seemed fine" during the media-access portion of Thursday's session, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: We'll have to see how the Titans classify Henry's participation level, but the running back's presence on the field Thursday suggests that his hamstring issue is not a major concern in advance of Sunday's game against the Colts.

Reps capped at practice
Henry was limited at practice Wednesday due to a hamstring injury, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Analysis: Henry is coming off back-to-back big games during which he racked up 45 touches, so his limitations to begin Week 13 might be for maintenance purposes more than anything. If Henry upgrades to full participation Thursday, there will be little reason to worry about his availability for Sunday's game against the Colts.

Rare receiving score
Henry carried the ball 13 times for 63 yards and a touchdown in Week 9 against the Panthers. He also added three receptions for 36 yards and another touchdown through the air.
Analysis: Henry drew his lowest number of carries for the season, but that didn't stop him from producing. He struggled to break free from the Panthers' run defense in the first half -- his longest rush went for three yards -- but he managed a bit more production on the ground after halftime with an eight-yard rushing score and another scamper for 12 yards. More notably, Henry turned in a rare contribution in the passing game, hauling in a 23-yard screen pass for another touchdown. Though Tennessee's…read more
