Derrick Henry might be the RB13 in fantasy points per game overall, but that doesn't tell the entire story. Since Week 4, without Lamar Jackson, he has been the RB28 in fantasy points per game, averaging 19.8 touches and 73.6 total yards. Henry is now a volume-based RB2 with a horrible matchup this week. Over their last five games, the Jags have allowed the third-lowest explosive run rate, the lowest rushing success rate, and the third-lowest missed tackle rate.

Henry's RB28 production without Lamar Jackson faces Jacksonville's elite run defense this week.

Henry is RB13 in overall fantasy points per game, but since Week 4 without Lamar Jackson he has been RB28 in fantasy points per game, averaging 19.8 touches and 73.6 total yards. Among 42 qualifying backs he ranks 18th in explosive run rate and 17th in yards after contact per attempt. The source downgrades him to a volume-based RB2 with a horrible matchup this week; Jacksonville has allowed the third-lowest explosive run rate, lowest rushing success rate, and third-lowest missed tackle rate over their last five games.
