With Lamar Jackson on the mend, this is the time to buy the Big Dog. He's failed to crack 60% of the snaps in back-to-back weeks and is coming off of a season-low RB40 finish (5.0 points), but this is more a reflection of his lack of involvement in trailing game scripts than a fall-off in performance/ability. With Jackson coming back, we can expect his gravitational pull to open up lanes for Henry and lead to the more familiar RB1 finishes we saw in Weeks 1-3 (RB1, RB6, RB4).

STACKED’s take

Positive signalValue

Henry's snap share dip is game script-dependent; Jackson's return should restore RB1 production.

Henry has a 17.59% chop rate and may fall through the cracks if Gibbs or Bijan Robinson are available in the league. With Lamar Jackson on the mend and expected to return, this is the time to buy. He's failed to crack 60% of snaps in back-to-back weeks and posted a season-low RB40 finish (5.0 points) in Week 6, but this reflects lack of involvement in trailing game scripts rather than a fall-off in ability. With Jackson's return, expect his gravitational pull to open lanes for Henry and lead to RB1 finishes similar to Weeks 1-3 (RB1, RB6, RB4). Recommended bid: 22-25% (average).
