Derrick Henry made fantasy drafters that overlooked him look silly in 2022, finishing the season as the RB4 overall and in points per game (18.3). He finished second in carries and third in rushing yards (23.4 touches per game) while also posting career highs in targets, receptions and yards per route run. The bad offensive situation hardly influenced Henry’s fantasy numbers, and he did not seem hampered by the foot injury that knocked him out of the second half of the 2021 season.

Fading Henry in 2022 was betting on him to hit the wall playing behind a shaky offensive line, finally. And that bet did not go well. But another year of a heavy workload combined with the Titans’ grim 2023 outlook with major questions on offense will bring concerns about drafting Henry early in 2023.
