Derrick Henry Remains Low-End RB1 in Week 17

Friday, December 26, 10:20 AM

Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry has faced some tough times this season in regard to ball security and questionable coaching decisions. While he registered his fourth fumble of the year last week against the New England Patriots, he still accrued 128 yards and two touchdowns on 18 carries. Tyler Huntley is likely to be under center in Week 17 against the Green Bay Packers, which means Henry should see some more carries. In Weeks 6 and 8, Henry received a combined 45 carries with Huntley as the starter. The Packers, however, are the eighth-toughest team in the league against the position over the last four weeks. They only allow 19.38 fantasy points per game to opposing backfields, but Henry was able to run all over the third-ranked Patriots defense, so he still projects as the RB11 in RotoBaller's rankings.

Damien Williams Released By Cardinals

Friday, November 10, 9:18 AM

Arizona Cardinals running back Damien Williams (foot) has been released by the organization with an injury settlement. This doesn't come as a surprise with James Conner (knee) expected to make his return this week. That means, Williams short lived time with the Cardinals is coming to an end. This season, Williams has totaled 43 yards on 11 carries and was held without a score. It's uncertain if the 31-year-old will get a chance elsewhere, but he's not expected to have fantasy value even he signs with another team.
