Ravens RB Justice Hill (concussion) is out for Wednesday's game vs. the Texans. He leads Baltimore RBs with a 48% route rate and 12% target share this season. Hill's absence should mean more passing-down work for RB Derrick Henry. You were starting him in season-long leagues anyway, but this gives him a little more value in DFS contests.
Ravens RB Derrick Henry had a great game against the Steelers rushing 24 times for 162 yards, but did not find the end zone for the third game in a row. With RB Justice Hill being knocked out of the game with a concussion, Henry even stayed in pass catching situations, catching both of his targets for 27 yards.
Ravens RB Justice Hill was knocked out of Saturday night's game vs. the Steelers with a concussion. It's his first documented head injury, but Hill is a long shot to be cleared in time for Wednesday's game against the Texans. His absence will likely mean more snaps for RBs Rasheen Ali and/or Keaton Mitchell. RB Derrick Henry could also pick up some more passing-down work.
Ravens RB Derrick Henry disappointed fantasy managers only carryign the ball 14 times in the Ravens win over the Giants. He totaled only 67 yards and did not find the end zone despite the team scoring five TDs.
Ravens RB Justice Hill pulled a team-high 7 targets in Sunday's loss to the Steelers. He caught four of them for 28 yards.
Ravens RB Keaton Mitchell is expected to play vs. the Bengals tonight, ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reports. It'll be Mitchell's first game since last December's season-ending knee injury. Mitchell will bring even more big-play ability to Baltimore's offense, but we're expecting him to at least start off as the No. 3 RB behind Derrick Henry and Justice Hill. Mitchell should not be in Week 10 fantasy lineups.
Ravens QB Lamar Jackson dominated the stout Denver Broncos defense with his arm, completing 16-of-19 passes for 280 yards and three TDs. He only ran three times for four yards on the day.
Ravens RB Keaton Mitchell will be activated from the PUP list and return to practice this week, according to The Athletic's Jeff Zrebiec. Mitchell has been working back from last December's multi-ligament knee injury. He's still likely at least a couple of weeks away from game action. Mitchell was a big-play machine last year, averaging 8.4 yards per carry and 10.3 yards per catch. But he'll be returning to a backfield that has both Derrick Henry and Justice Hill playing very well. Mitchell would need an injury to at least one of those guys to have a shot at fantasy relevance. He can be left on your waiver wire for now.
Ravens RB Derrick Henry ran 24 times for 199 yards and a TD. He also had three catches for 10 yards and an additional TD. He was flat-out dominant against a Bills defense that had been stout against opposing RBs up until this point.
Ravens RB Derrick Henry recorded a vintage Derrick Henry line in the Week 3 win over the Cowboys: 25 carries, 151 yards, and two TDs. He punched in a one-yard score in the first quarter but really got rolling in the second half, ripping off 99 yards and another TD on 13 carries. That included a 29-yard rumble and a 26-yard TD on the first drive of the third quarter to put Baltimore up by 22 points. Henry also caught his only target for 23 yards.
Ravens RB Derrick Henry led the Ravens backfield again with a final stat line of 18 rushes for 84 yards and a TD. He even added a reception for 12 yards.. Henry got more and more effective as the Raiders defense tired out toward the end of the game.
Ravens RB Derrick Henry carried five times for 17 yards and the season's first TD in Thursday night's loss to the Chiefs. But Kansas City's defense -- and game script -- limited him to just 29 scoreless yards on eight carries the rest of the way. Baltimore trailed for close to three-quarters of this game, and Henry was regularly pulled in passing situations for RB Justice Hill. Henry failed to catch either of his two targets.
Ravens HC John Harbaugh talked up RB Justice Hill on Thursday. Harbaugh called Hill a "high-caliber RB" who's "gonna play a lot."
As many expected, the Ravens have agreed to terms with former Titans RB Derrick Henry. ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that Henry will get a two-year, $16 million deal -- with a $20 million max value and $9 million guaranteed for 2024. That means Henry will take over the backfield for at least the coming season. Despite last offseason's OC switch and other investments in the passing game, Baltimore finished 2023 as the league's most run-heavy offense (50.3% of plays). QB Lamar Jackson skews that rate with his scrambling, but it's clearly a good situation for Henry. His Underdog Fantasy ADP sits at RB15 as of this writing, at the end of Round 5. If Henry stays in that range, he'll be smash pick for best ball. Check our best ball rankings to compare our outlook for Henry with the market's. J.K. Dobbins, meanwhile, just got easier to drop in dynasty formats -- in case you were on the fence. Keaton Mitchell? We'll have to watch his progress throughout the summer as he returns from a December ACL tear.
Titans RB Derrick Henry managed just 42 yards on 12 carries in Sunday's loss to the Texans. That marked his third time in the past four games with 3.5 yards per carry or less. Henry also went without a catch for the first time since Week 3. He has finished seven of his past eight contests with 1 reception or fewer. That all makes Henry a shaky play for Week 18 vs. Jacksonville. And might we also see Tennessee give more work to rookie RB Tyjae Spears in the game's final season -- ahead of an offseason that will almost certainly see Henry leave? It wouldn't be a crazy move. We'll watch for any indication of Week 18 plans. Either way, you shouldn't be excited to play Henry in any format in Week 18.
The Texans have ruled out Edge Jonathan Greenard (ankle) for Sunday's game against the Titans -- and they might miss as many as three other D-line starters. Edge Will Anderson Jr. (ankle), DT Maliek Collins (hip), and DT Sheldon Rankins (ankle) are questionable. Anderson missed the past two games with the injury and managed just a limited Friday practice this week. He doesn't look like a good bet for IDP lineups even if active. Rankins also put in just a single limited workout, while Collins missed the whole week. At the least, this D-line will be well below full strength. That can only help the matchup for Titans RB Derrick Henry. He posted a terrible 10 total yards on 20 touches in the teams' Week 15 meeting, but Anderson was the only of those four D-linemen injured for that contest. Henry looks like an RB2 with upside across formats this week.
Titans RB Derrick Henry assessed his future following Sunday’s loss to Houston. Henry is slated to hit free agency in 2024. “Yeah, definitely today you had that feeling [that it could be the end of my career with the Titans]," said Henry. "I had hope of kind of slipping in there [the playoffs], and then being eliminated with three games left. I've been here my whole career. Definitely wanted to go out strong, which that isn't the case.” Per ESPN's Turon Davenport, the Titans have $91.8 million in projected cap space, so money isn't an issue. Henry, though, might want a change of scenery at 30 years old (in January). Tennessee ends the season against Seattle, Houston, and Jacksonville.
Titans RB Derrick Henry logged a ridiculously low 10 total yards in Sunday's OT loss to the Texans. It wasn't because of a lack of touches, though. Henry carried 16 times, his fourth straight games with at least that many rushing attempts. He also caught a team-high four passes on 4 targets. Both tied his season highs. But Henry ran for just 9 yards and managed a single receiving yard. Perhaps Houston just figured out how to defend him. If that's the case, he'll be unhappy to see the Texans again in Week 17. And we'll have to be wary of that matchup. In between comes a positive spot against Seattle. Rookie Tyjae Spears nearly equaled Henry's playing time against the Texans, logging 33 snaps to Henry's 34. He beat Henry 18-13 in pass routes and took his 9 carries for 30 yards (3.3 per rush). Spears remains just a handcuff for fantasy, though.
Titans HC Mike Vrabel said Monday afternoon that RB Derrick Henry is not in the concussion protocol, contrary to what ESPN's Adam Schefter reported this morning. "We checked on him last night, then checked on him in the morning," Vrabel said. We'll keep an eye on Henry throughout the week, but it sounds like he should be available for next Monday night's game vs. the Dolphins.
