STACKED’s take
Henry's elite days over; avoid without Jackson against elite Jaguars run defense.
Henry is a Week 9 landmine as his elite running back days appear over. He has averaged 3.6 yards per rushing attempt and 69.7 yards per game since Week 1, and has struggled significantly without Lamar Jackson, averaging 68.3 rushing yards and 10.6 fantasy points per game without the former NFL MVP, totaling fewer than 60 yards and six fantasy points in all but one contest. The Ravens will be without both Jackson (thumb) and Tyler Huntley (toe) for Thursday's matchup against Jacksonville, with undrafted rookie Joe Fagnano making his first career start. Jacksonville has an elite run defense, holding running backs to 3.3 yards per rushing attempt and a 2.4% rushing touchdown rate, surrendering only 17 fantasy points per game to running backs with 14.4 or fewer in over half their matchups. Between Jacksonville's elite run defense and Baltimore's limited passing attack, Henry should not be ranked as a top-24 running back.
