Titans’ RB Derrick Henry suffered a potentially season-ending foot injury during Sunday’s 34-31 win over Indianapolis, sources reported ESPN. Henry is undergoing an MRI today to determine the full extent of the damage.


Holy shite...

Asa a Titans fan, I feel great about relying on Tannehill to keep this going.

How great is Derrick Henry? 9/10 football fans doesn’t know his back up.

He probably tells the coaches hes fine, but sometimes the titans give him carries that make no sense. The game will be well in hand and he'll still get 5 touches on a drive

Really sucks, but the risk you take when giving your RB nearly twice as many caries as the next closest RB.

McCaffery and Henry, probably the two most interesting players in the league, both being injured is a bummer.

Didnt he end up coming back in the game after leaving from this injury or was I just too drunk watching redzone?

He’s an absolute monster and I wish him a speedy recovery.

I’m not saying this would have avoided it, but man stuff like this feels inevitable whenever you have 82 more carries than the next highest guy at the halfway point of the season.

I have a Under 1500.5 rush yards prop on him, but also have him in a fantasy league. Talk about being torn

Wish he would just be out for several weeks instead

I was just saying it’s amazing how he’s never injured

I was afraid of something like this. He was on pace to carry the ball 465 times, eclipsing the old record of Larry Johnson by nearly 50 carries. In 16 games he would have been at 438, still breaking that record by more than 20 carries. With playoff games, he would have eclipsed 500.

This injury, strangely enough, might extend his career. At that pace, he would’ve had 3-4 good years left at the most, with slightly declining numbers along the way.

I knew when I woke up this morning and the Titans were #1 in the AFC that the universe was out-of-balance and a big steamy dump was gonna be dropped on my hopes in some capacity. That's just life as a Titans fan.

And part of why Henry has been getting an absurd amount of carries this year because his backups keep getting hurt. He'd still lead the league in rushing attempts regardless, but he's got no one who can actually share the workload behind him, particularly in the 1st half of games.

I want to see the Titans be serious and offer up at least 2nd rounder for a suitable replacement in a trade by tomorrow. It won't happen but some guys I'd love to land:

David Montgomery
Alexander Mattison
Tony Pollard
Marlon Mack (def won't happen because frick the Colts)

Of course, we'll probably sign Adrian Peterson or Tory Gurley.
