Derrick Henry held in check by Bengals

Baltimore Ravens RB Derrick Henry carried 17 times for 45 yards and caught one of two targets for four yards in a Week 7 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals.

Why It Matters: Henry, whose longest run was just nine yards, averaged a season-low 2.6 yards per carry, and it was the fourth time in the last five weeks he’s been held below four yards per carry (only six times last season). Henry is averaging 3.9 yards per carry for the season after never averaging fewer than four yards per carry in any of his first 10 seasons (over five yards per carry the last two seasons). Henry also failed to score a touchdown for a third straight game on the ground (one TD reception) after seven rush TDs in the first four games. Unsurprisingly, that three-game drought occurred during the same period of time Lamar Jackson has been sidelined. Jackson is expected back in Week 8, so keep Henry in lineups as he boasts overall RB1 upside against the weak Bills run defense.
