Should I Start Derrick Henry?

Sunday, October 25, 12:46 PM

Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry still carries a substantial workload, but poor efficiency and a lack of scoring chances have produced consecutive fantasy disappointments, including just 45 rushing yards on 17 carries without a touchdown in Sunday's 35-13 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. Henry averaged a season-low 2.6 yards per attempt, with his longest run gaining only nine yards. He also caught one of two targets for four yards, finishing with 5.9 PPR fantasy points. Baltimore led 13-0 at halftime but failed to score after the break, with three trips inside Cincinnati's 15-yard line producing only six points. Henry has now rushed for 103 yards on 34 carries without a touchdown over his last two games, including a 58-yard performance against the Cleveland Browns in Week 6 that featured a lost fumble. Baltimore visits the Buffalo Bills in Week 8, when Lamar Jackson (ankle) could potentially return after missing three games.
