2024 Season Outlooks

Henry turned the page on his Titans career by joining a Ravens offense that made Gus Edwards a Fantasy stalwart. Henry will immediately have double-digit touchdown upside with the Ravens and could ultimately end up challenging Christian McCaffrey for the league lead in TDs. He won't improve his receptions with Lamar Jackson, but Henry has aged well. Despite now playing on the wrong side of 30, his advanced metrics have held up. Henry is a late-second or early-third-round draft pick and his touchdown upside should keep him in the RB1 range all season.

After playing eight seasons in Tennessee, Henry signed with the Ravens in free agency to take over the lead role in the Baltimore backfield. While Henry will turn 30 years old this season, he can still get on a north/south track as a downhill hammer in the run game, with enough juice to create big plays. In 2023, Henry's 272 carries tied for the league lead, and his 2.22 yards after first contact ranked at the top. With the Ravens, Henry will work behind a stronger offensive front and pair with Lamar Jackson to create a dynamic backfield attack. Henry won't give you high-end receving numbers (27 receptions last season), but the rushing volume and scoring opportunities place the veteran in the upper-tier RB2 discussion.
