FantasyPros Articles on Derrick Henry

Henry's post-Lamar decline and Jacksonville's elite run defense make him a fade despite volume.

While Henry is RB13 in overall fantasy points per game, Derek Brown notes that since Week 4 without Lamar Jackson, he has been RB28 in fantasy points per game, averaging 19.8 touches and 73.6 total yards. Among 42 qualifying backs, he ranks 18th in explosive run rate and 17th in yards after contact per attempt. Brown downgrades him to a volume-based RB2 with a horrible matchup this week against Jacksonville. Despite Jacksonville losing DaVon Hamilton, Brown expects them to field a solid run defense: over the last five games, the Jags allow the 3rd-lowest explosive run rate, lowest rushing success rate, and 3rd-lowest missed tackle rate.
