Henry totaled 60 yards and a touchdown on 16 carries and added four receptions for 37 yards on five targets in Thursday's 36-22 victory over the Jaguars.
The Titans, winners in three of their last four games, have largely led a charmed life recently, and this was clearly evidenced by Henry's performance. The highly-touted rookie had been underutilized due to the success of DeMarco Murray as the lead back, but a foot injury to the latter afforded Henry a slight uptick in playing time. Tennessee got the best of both worlds, as they saw their second-round pick thrive in the extended opportunity and also saw Murray shake off his injury to return to the game and tally another 100-yard effort. Henry was able to get into the end zone for the first time as a pro in the second quarter on a six-yard run and also collected a career high in carries. While Murray remains the lead back as long as he's healthy, Henry has now posted four games with 40 rushing yards or more despite receiving double-digit carries in only two of them. His fantasy upside remains capped for the time being, but Thursday's outcome may prompt the Titans to give him some more run and Murray a bit more rest as the second half of the season unfolds.
