I saw this earlier and bet both to hit their prop O/U of about 45yds.

The rookie Henderson has been dynamic the last two weeks, going for 30+ DK points in two straight games with the Patriots' lead back Rhamondre Stevenson out. It's the perfect storm this week as the explosive Henderson now gets a matchup with the 31st-ranked Bengals run defense.

You'd think that Henderson would be the chalk du jour this week, then right? Well, here's the rub. Stevenson is set to return to the lineup, and it's quite possible that Henderson now splits touches with Stevenson this week, lowering his ceiling despite the spectacular spot.

But Mike Vrabel can't put Henderson back in the box after he's been this good lately, right? He'd be a fool, right? Well, you combine the price increase to Henderson with the possibility of his touches getting cut in half, and now he goes from a slam-dunk play to a "boy, I hope this coach does the right thing, but I am not sure that he will...and I am holding my breath" play.

I am rolling him out there in tournaments anyway. Jaylen Warren was in line for a huge day last week before getting hurt, and his backup, Kenneth Gainwell, ended up going off instead. Gainwell's success as a receiver (8-81-2) was no surprise either, as the Bengals are dead last in DVOA against backs as receivers.

So even if Stevenson eats into some early down work, I think Henderson could still have a big day as a runner or receiver, and his big-play potential (combined with the Cincy defense's vulnerability to give up explosive plays) makes him a pretty darn good play anyway.
