SIT ‘EM – RB

Running Back. Titans. Derrick Henry. 2. player. 35.

Derrick Henry disappointed in week one, but then again, so did most of the Titans roster. Henry had just 26 yards off of ten carries and to make matters worse, he saw fewer carries than teammate Dion Lewis.

Things won’t get any easier for Henry and the Titans, who will welcome in the Houston Texans. Putting up a lot of points against J.J. Watt and his Texans defenders is not likely, especially considering how poorly Henry performed last week.

The Titans are a bit of a question mark this year, but Henry was what helped them succeed last year. He’s not worth giving up on so early into the season, but it wouldn’t be surprising to see Lewis become more dependable than him.

If you’re forced to start one of the Titans running backs, Lewis is probably the better bet considering he had more touches last week. Don’t give up on Henry, but he’s not a good option to start against the Texans.
