Derrick Henry Could Flop Again In Week 6

Derrick Henry Could Flop Again In Week 6

one year ago

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry has averaged just 3.8 yards per carry this season, posting 328 yards on 86 attempts. He has also scored just one rushing touchdown through five weeks. Needless to say, he's looked like a shell of his former self, meaning a matchup with a Baltimore Ravens in Week 6 is problematic. The Ravens are a neutral matchup for fantasy running backs thus far, but Baltimore boasts the No. 2 total defense, allowing 266.4 yards per game. Meanwhile, the Titans have racked up the ninth-fewest yards per game (293.6) this season. In an early kickoff game in London, this is likely to be an ugly, low-scoring battle. Henry likely needs to find the end zone to post a solid fantasy showing, and that's far from a guarantee on Sunday. Still, he's worth starting given his preseason cost in drafts and scarcity at the fantasy RB position.
