Titans' Derrick Henry the focus of Patriots' defense heading into Divisional Round matchup
New England Patriots safety Devin McCourty praised Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry for what he is able to do to opposing defenses.
What It Means:
McCourty noted that Henry is second in the league in fourth quarter rushing yards. "I think that speaks volumes with him just wearing down teams," McCourty said. However, McCourty said that Henry is much more than a big back with power. He praised him for being able to cut outside while also speaking of the Patriots' need to wrap him up and do a good job at tackling. The second-year back is expected to start with DeMarco Murray (knee) on the mend for Tennessee.
Coming in at $7,000, Henry is projected for 11.6 FanDuel points in Saturday's road matchup in New England. His expected production ranks 7th among all running backs on this week's DFS slate.
