When will Derrick Henry be back, return to the Titans?

Update: The Titans plan to activate Derrick Henry for Saturday’s playoff game against the Bengals and he is expected to start, according to ESPN’s Turron Davenport. The Titans placed Henry on injured reserve back on Nov. 1. Henry was technically eligible to return from IR at the end of November but he has not yet been healthy enough to return. So when will Derrick Henry be back and return to the Titans lineup? Henry returned to practice with the Titans last week and is expected to play in the Divisional Round against the Bengals, though the Titans have not yet activated him. Henry participated in contact practice this week and the Titans will make a decision Friday on whether or not he will play against the Bengals. “It’s been awhile since he’s had contact,” Titans head coach Mike Vrabel said. “We’re going to have to do these things that come close to replicating what’s going to be asked of him in a football game. We’ll have a week of work, we’ll see how he feels and make a decision.” Tennessee clinched the top overall seed in the AFC with a win over the Texans in Week 18. Henry has a Jones fracture, which is a break between the base and the shaft of the fifth metatarsal bone of your foot. It is the bone on the outside of your foot, connected to your smallest toe, according to Healthline.com. Recovery time after Jones fracture surgery is “seven weeks or less,” according to Healthline.com. The site says that people who undergo Jones fracture surgery may have to keep weight off the injured foot for up to six weeks. A return in the Divisional Round would be 12 weeks from when the injury occurred.

Titans odds

The Titans own one of the top records in the AFC and are a legit contender even without the services of the beast that wears No. 22. Mike Vrabel’s squad is +850 to win the Super Bowl at DraftKings Sportsbook.

Derrick Henry props

Henry had a season long rushing yard total of 1555.5 at DraftKings Sportsbook in August. The reigning rush king had already amassed 937 yards on the ground before he went down with the injury. With Henry on the shelf, the Titans have been rolling with D’Onta Foreman at RB.
