BALLER MOVE: Start in all leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: Mid-range RB1
ANALYSIS: The 2023 Texans are not the Texans from years past. In prior seasons, fantasy managers would circle the Texans on Derrick Henry's schedule because he always put up video game numbers against them. Things have changed this season, as the Texans allow the 8th-fewest rushing yards to opposing running backs.
However, Week 15 could be where King Henry bucks that trend and puts together a solid performance. The short-handed Texans could have a tough time keeping pace with the Titans. Houston will be without their starting quarterback C.J. Stroud and their starting wide receiver Tank Dell. Nico Collins is expected to miss this one as well.
While Henry's snap share has dwindled this season, he's still putting up low-end RB1 numbers. Over the last three weeks, Henry has logged 56 carries and has scored six rushing touchdowns. Expect him to be heavily involved in Week 15 against a Texans team that could have some trouble scoring points. Despite the tough matchup on paper, start the King with confidence as you normally would.
