2023 Fantasy Outlook
Henry's remarkable career appears to be trending downward somewhat, or at least that's true of the Titans in general, but he was still plenty capable in 2022 and settled any concerns regarding the foot injury that he suffered in 2021. Henry had no trouble planting the foot and inflicting his customary level of punishment on defenders, and encouragingly his big-play ability was about the same as ever. Henry's 10 carries of 20-plus yards last year are the second most of his career, and his four carries of 40-plus tied a career high from 2020. Not just that, but Henry showed real growth as a pass catcher, drawing a career-high 41 targets (previous high 31) and catching 33 for 398 yards (a new high by 192 yards). He'll turn 30 in January and is coming off four straight seasons with more than 20 carries per game, so the specter of decline understandably might give some fantasy investors pause, though it's difficult to tell what rules apply to a runner as freakishly built as the 247-pound Henry. Other running backs would've slowed down years ago with usage like Henry's, but it hasn't happened to him yet. Read Past Outlooks

Absorbing new offense
Henry, who has spent more time in Nashville this offseason compared to previous years, has been been at the team facility for all six of the Titans' voluntary OTA sessions, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
The Titans' No. 1 back noted that his increased offseason presence stems from wanting to get up to speed with the team's new offense under coordinator Tim Kelly. Per Wyatt, Henry, who logged 349 carries in 16 games in 2022, "looks to be in great shape" at this stage of the offseason, while also looking "smooth running and catching the ball." As the coming season approaches, Henry is poised to maintain his high-volume role in Tennessee's offense, while 2023 third-round pick Tyjae Spears and 2022 fourth-round pick Hassan Haskins are in line to compete for complementary snaps.

A foot injury that cost him the second half of last season was the main obstacle standing
between Henry and a third consecutive rushing title, and maybe even a second consecutive
2,000-yard campaign. He averaged career highs of 27.4 carries and 2.5 targets per game, up
from 23.6 and 1.9 the year before, and ran for 937 yards and 10 TDs in eight games despite
seeing eight-man fronts 36 percent of the time, one of the highest marks in the league. But there
were signs his huge workload was catching up to him, even before he got hurt. Henry's 4.3
yards per carry was a step back from his performance the previous two seasons, and the
downturn partially came from breaking tackles at a lower rate. He averaged 2.2 yards after
contact in 2021, following 3.2 in 2019 and 2.8 in 2020, and his 10 broken tackles in those eight
games was almost half his usual rate. On the other hand, he still ran with shocking speed for a
big man, as rushing champ Jonathan Taylor was the only running back to post a faster top
speed on a touchdown in 2021. Last season also was Henry's best yet in terms of per-game
fantasy production, boosted by the ridiculous volume, and he even returned from his foot injury
for a playoff loss to the Bengals. The Titans will keep riding their 28-year-old workhorse as long
as he'll hold up, with the burden on the running game as large as ever this season after star
wide receiver A.J. Brown was shipped to Philadelphia on draft day and replaced by rookie
Treylon Burks.
