Titans RB Darrynton Evans (hamstring) took limited practice reps Thursday. If he's out, Derrick Henry could be an every-down player against the Broncos.

Titans RB Derrick Henry focused on catching passes

It’s been a common theme throughout the first couple of weeks in training camp: Running back Derrick Henry is dedicating plenty of time to improving as a receiver.

In between team periods at Tuesday’s practice, in what was a lull in the action for offensive starters, Henry once again worked one-on-one with running backs coach Tony Dews, catching balls while on the run. He didn’t drop any passes.

Fantasy Impact:

Outside of a 75-yard catch on a screen that Henry took for a touchdown in Week 1 of last season, Henry was mostly a nonfactor as a pass catcher in 2019. But he appears committed to changing that in 2020. It remains to be seen how much the Titans will use Henry on passing down situations, where they normally rolled with No. 2 running back Dion Lewis last season, the story said. Lewis is now with the Giants and we think Evans could get work behind Henry, perhaps especially in the passing game. Henry would get a nice boost in fantasy value with any kind of work in the passing game.

Update: Titans sign Derrick Henry to 4-year extension

Titans RB Derrick Henry is signing a four-year, $50 million contract extension that includes $25.5 million guaranteed, source tells ESPN.

Fantasy Impact:

Only yesterday it was reported that the Titans were unlikely to extend Henry long-term, but things change quickly in the NFL and Tennessee obviously had a change of heart about locking up their workhorse running back. Henry will remain in Tennessee for the foreseeable future and projects as a high-volume, tackle-breaking machine for the Titans as they look to repeat last year's success. Whether or not paying up for Henry is a wise move for the Titans in real life, dyansty drafters should take note because it solidifies Henry's status as a a RB1 and reaffirms that he is one of the safest picks available in the middle of the first round for redraft.
