2024 Fantasy Outlook
Henry is one of a kind with no true case study for a player bearing his traits, making it especially difficult to make the right call on the question of physical decline -- something that's already difficult enough to determine for running backs. The decline always happens, but in Henry's case there's reason to suspect he can remain productive into his early 30s. As much as his career workload of 2,030 carries (2,186 including playoffs) is a concerning figure, it's defenders who tend to get the worst of the collisions that involve him, and there might be a different exchange rate of usage to decline for someone with his combination of size (6-3, 247) and speed. That combination could prove a dangerous fit in a Ravens offense that already spreads defenses thin with the rushing threat posed by Lamar Jackson. Good as Henry might be as a rusher for the Baltimore offense, he'll have a hard time matching his workloads from Tennessee and isn't likely to catch many passes (Justice Hill paced Baltimore running backs with 28 receptions in 16 games last year). The 30 year old may be even more reliant on touchdowns than in past seasons, though he at least figures to spend plenty of time in the red zone now that he's with a much better team.

RANKS
Extends TD streak to seven games
Henry rushed 15 times for 169 yards while catching his only target for a 13-yard touchdown in Monday's 41-31 win over the Buccaneers.
ANALYSIS
Henry was quiet in the first half but got rolling after halftime with bursts of 81 and 39 yards on the ground before putting an exclamation point on his night with a 13-yard receiving touchdown, which doubled as Lamar Jackson's fifth passing touchdown in Baltimore's latest stellar performance on offense. Henry has found the end zone in all seven of his games with the Ravens while rushing for at least 132 yards in four of the past five. The 30-year-old running back is showing no signs of slowing down and is likely to handle another heavy workload Week 8 against the 1-6 Browns.

Henry's remarkable career appears to be trending downward somewhat, or at least that's true of the Titans in general, but he was still plenty capable in 2022 and settled any concerns regarding the foot injury that he suffered in 2021. Henry had no trouble planting the foot and inflicting his customary level of punishment on defenders, and encouragingly his big-play ability was about the same as ever. Henry's 10 carries of 20-plus yards last year are the second most of his career, and his four carries of 40-plus tied a career high from 2020. Not just that, but Henry showed real growth as a pass catcher, drawing a career-high 41 targets (previous high 31) and catching 33 for 398 yards (a new high by 192 yards). He'll turn 30 in January and is coming off four straight seasons with more than 20 carries per game, so the specter of decline understandably might give some fantasy investors pause, though it's difficult to tell what rules apply to a runner as freakishly built as the 247-pound Henry. Other running backs would've slowed down years ago with usage like Henry's, but it hasn't happened to him yet.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Milestones on horizon
Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic believes Henry could be in for big performance Sunday against a Bengals' defense that ranks 25th against the run this season.
ANALYSIS
Henry needs 18 rushing yards to reach the 10,000-yard threshold and one touchdown to reach 100 for his career. The All-Pro running back broke out against the Bills in Week 4, when he rushed for 199 yards and one touchdown on 24 carries while catching all three of his targets for 10 yards and another score. Zrebiec notes the Bengals have allowed 149 or more rushing yards in three of four games, which could spell trouble against the duel threat of Henry and quarterback Lamar Jackson.
