Will The Titans Trade Derrick Henry?

The Titans hired Ran Carthon as their new general manager this offseason, and he has been busy. Tennessee has released several veterans already, including Robert Woods and Taylor Lewan.

Meanwhile, Henry is 29 years and entering the last year of his contract. With a $16.4 million cap hit, the Titans reportedly are shopping the superstar running back.

However, there have been conflicting reports about the superstar. While some say Henry is available in trade talks, others have said the opposite.

The former Alabama star remains one of the top running backs in the NFL. Yet, the Titans have to be concerned with his age and mileage. If the team decides it’s time to trade away the franchise running back, Tennessee will have multiple offers for Henry.

Which Team Would Be The Best Fit For Derrick Henry?

According to Bookies.com, the superstar running back will likely remain in Tennessee next season at +250. However, the Philadelphia Eagles (+400), Buffalo Bills (+550), and Miami Dolphins (+600) are the most likely destinations if the veteran running back gets traded.

While Twitter has already traded Henry to the Bills, that’s not the best or most likely fit. Instead, the Eagles would be an excellent landing spot.

Miles Sanders is a free agent this offseason and won’t be back in Philadelphia next season. The team likes Kenneth Gainwell, but he isn’t a lead running back. However, adding Henry would take the Eagles’ elite rushing attack to another level.

Another ideal landing spot is the Atlanta Falcons (+1200). Former Tennessee offensive coordinator Arthur Smith is the head coach in Atlanta. Furthermore, the Falcons were one of the most run-heavy teams in the NFL last year.
