Running back Derrick Henry will have the responsibility of leading the Tennesse Titans’ backfield in a must-win game to end the regular season. Starting rusher DeMarco Murray is questionable to play after suffering a small MCL tear late in the Week 16 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. The sophomore RB should be up for the task despite struggling in the last three games. Henry gashed the Jacksonville Jaguars defense in Week 2 for 92 yards and a touchdown on 14 carries. The Jaguars have a notoriously tough secondary but struggle to defend the run.
Fantasy football start/sit Week 17: What to do with Derrick Henry
Henry will run the Titans backfield in the final must-win game of the season. We look at the fantasy implications.


Henry will have to shake off his last few performances heading into Sunday’s matchup. He has been held to eight carries and 25 yards the last three games. The backup RB did manage to score a touchdown in Week 14 against the Arizona Cardinals.
Fantasy impact: Henry will be the workhorse for Week 17. He averages 76 yards when he gets over 10 carries in a game. The Titans are going to give him ample touches the final game of the season. The Jaguars defense is excellent but it has a tough time stopping the run. Henry should be able to have another big game against Jacksonville Sunday.
