Titans RB DeMarco Murray (toe) will get an MRI, not considered serious

DeMarco Murray will get an MRI on his toe, but HC Mike Mularkey said that he doesn't think it's serious.

Related players: Derrick Henry

Fantasy Impact:

This injury scare serves as a reminder of why Derrick Henry is one of the best attrition plays in the league. It doesn't sound like Murray's injury is serious.

Titans plan to rotate their running backs on third down

The Tennessean

Sep 08, 2016 · 10:38 AM EDT

On the topic of the Titans' running backs, DeMarco Murray and Derrick Henry:

“When DeMarco needs a blow, then it will be Derrick,” HC Mike Mularkey said. “If I feel like we need a change of pace, I’ll put in a change of pace. But right now, there’s no set (rotation). … They’re going to both get opportunities, that’s for sure.”

And don’t expect a specific third-down back, the kind of role Dexter McCluster often played in the past. Murray and Henry are both capable pass-catchers and pass-protectors.

“It’s going to be the rotation as we’re going,” Mularkey said. “It won’t be like it’s designed he’s going in because it’s third down.”

Fantasy Impact:

Henry wasn't used much in the passing game at Alabama, but he has shown well enough in the preseason to earn the trust of the coaching staff. The release of McCluster opened up a lot of playing time for both Murray and Henry.

Titans will 'find ways' to get Derrick Henry on the field

Mike Mularkey said Titans will find ways to get Derrick Henry on the field, even though DeMarco Murray is still the starter.

Fantasy Impact:

Both players have looked good in the preseason. The Titans drafted Henry with the intention of using him as a rookie, so we're expecting a fairly run-heavy game plan, at least until the Titans fall behind. Henry has a lot of upside as an attrition play if anything were to happen to Murray.

Week 2 of the preseason was an entirely different story. Saturday afternoon, Tennessee ran for only 96 yards, and RB Derrick Henry’s five rushes amounted to 31 yards.

“I still think he ran the ball with some power,” coach Mike Mularkey said. “I saw piles moving.”

“I thought they were a real test,” Henry said.

Fantasy Impact:

Henry’s longest run of the game was a 13-yard play up the middle on a first-and-5 at the start of the third quarter. He remains an interesting fantasy option behind DeMarco Murray, who struggled last year after a 392-carry year in 2014.
