For some reason it took the Titans coaching staff a few years to figure out how to use Derrick Henry properly. In case you missed it, the proper way to use him is to give him a ton of carries straight into the teeth of the defense, and watch him wear them down.
During his first and second seasons, Henry ran the ball only 110 and 176 times. In Week 13 of the 2018, Henry ran for 238 yards and 4 touchdowns on only 17 carries, and that seemed to snap Vrabel and offensive coordinator Arthur Smith out of it. They stopped giving around half the snaps to Dion Lewis and instead began letting Henry shine, and they have been rewarded.
In 2019 Henry ran the ball over 20 times on seven different occasions, something he had only done three times in his entire career before last season. He had 15 or more carries in every game but one. Henry ran for 5.1 yards per carry, for a remarkable 1540 yards and 16 touchdowns. He also added in 18 receptions and 2 more touchdowns through the air.
Behind an excellent offensive line (ranked 4th per footballoutsiders.com), Henry often built up a head of steam before the line of scrimmage, and it is very difficult to stop a fast 247-pound running back in full gallop. Although he does not get much work in the passing game, the Titans did design a few screens for him to keep the defense guessing, with quite a bit of success. That will never be a prime part of his game, but he should continue adding a bit of value in the passing game.
The bottom line: As long as Henry retains his power and speed and continues to get adequate work, he will produce nicely. He is a worthwhile first-round fantasy choice, even in a time when running backs who are not extremely active in the passing game have been devalued.

 Duke Johnson, Prosise ruled out for Texans
Will not travel
By: Mike Krueger | Sat Dec 19, 2:12 pm
|  | Houston #Texans CB Phillip Gaines (knee), RB Duke Johnson (neck), RB C.J. Prosise and CB John Reid (neck) will not travel with the team to Indianapolis and have been ruled out for Sunday’s game against the Colts. #HOUvsIND (Texans PR on Twitter)
FFToday's Take: With his top two backups ruled out, this paves the way for David Johnson to have a workhorse role for the Texans against the Colts. Outside of Derrick Henry, the Colts have done a decent job against opposing RBs but given the volume, David is an easy RB2 with RB1 upside if he can find the endzone.
