Derrick Henry Will Play In Week 18
2 years agoTennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry (hip), who is doubtful to play on Thursday night against the Dallas Cowboys, will return to play in the regular season finale in Week 18 against the Jacksonville Jaguars, according to a source. The Titans will get into the playoffs if they win in Week 18 -- Thursday's game against Dallas will have no bearing on whether or not they make the postseason. As a result, the Titans are resting King Henry and will also bench rookie quarterback Malik Willis in favor of practice-squad QB Joshua Dobbs. Fantasy managers are likely pretty unhappy that they won't have Henry during championship week in most leagues, but you should be good if your championship matchup isn't until next week. Rookies Hassan Haskins and Julius Chestnut will see more playing time on Thursday night, with Haskins expected to have the bigger role.
