syhuang Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/32986843/tennessee-titans-discussing-derrick-henry-possible-return-ir ------------------------------------- Titans coach Mike Vrabel said Monday that the team has discussed Henry being designated for return from injured reserve this week, which would allow him to practice. "We've discussed it," Vrabel said. "We'll see where that goes. He [Henry] is doing some work today and we'll see when that window opens and probably make a decision midweek." The Titans will have a 21-day practice window to activate Henry once he's designated for return to practice. ESPN's Dianna Russini reported Sunday that Henry was on the practice field last week jogging in cleats. Henry fractured his foot early in the Titans' 34-31 victory over the Indianapolis Colts in Week 8. He had foot surgery on Nov 1. The injury typically has a six- to- 10 week recovery time period. ------------------------------------- The Titans don't have any definite plans to play Henry in Week 18. But there is a belief within the building that he will be back in time for the playoffs, especially if they get the first-round bye. ------------------------------------- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBillyG Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 This was always expected. And it very well may have done them a favor. Titans were using DH a TON. He would have likely been pretty worn for the playoffs. Comes back just in time to be well rested and fresh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blank Stare Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 Wasn’t it a Jones fracture? Is this guy even going to be effective off that injury? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right if he’s not close to 100% how much does he really help. Feels kind of like the situation the rams had a couple years back with gurley 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1ManRaid Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 Would help if they didn't get 1st seed and bye, forcing them to either deny him an extra week of rehab or play without him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vrabel will play this out as far as he possibly can, with all the "he's almost ready" talk. I don't think he'll play except maybe toward the end of the playoffs, if the Titans survive that long. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Banana peels don't happen twice. We’ve had multiple banana peels this year 😂 moss got tackled by the ground and we ended up with 0 pts in the NE game lol not quite a banana peel but josh stepped one mm out of bounds on a scramble against the bucs and we ended up losing in OT too lol this team is like 6 inches away from having the one seed locked up. Not only are we 0-5 in close games we have lost most of them by literally inches Edited January 3, 2022 by Generic_Bills_Fan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshAllin Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 I don't see what the hype surrounding Henry is all about. He has never helped lead his team to the super bowl and I don't see it happening this year as well 1 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We played them on the road, on the big stage, and when they were fully healthy. A slip away from taking it. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like most of the competitors in the afc are built that way this year which is pretty interesting. From our point of view though that’s a scary team.

I agree with you and it's why I still say the road to the Super Bowl will go through Kansas City. No way in the world Tennessee has what it takes to win a SB, or even appear in one IMO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea I agree…I don’t blame the pats for structuring their team that way while mac develops but I think Tennessee is always going to have some fundamental issues. One of the other top afc teams is gonna force them into a shootout whether it’s us or kc or the bengals and I don’t think someone like tannehill can carry the load. In todays nfl you really need a qb that can do it all to build around and Henry has been a crutch for that titans team. Gotta say though they were pretty competitive without him too Edited January 3, 2022 by Generic_Bills_Fan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Titans were using DH a TON. He would have likely been pretty worn for the playoffs. Comes back just in time to be well rested and fresh. While I agree he will be rested, I wonder what type of shape he will be in. It’s actually difficult to get into shape during the season or for that matter even during training camp. When I think about how difficult it is to do anything when you aren’t suppose to put weight on your foot, I wonder what Henry has been doing to stay in shape. 26 minutes ago, motorj said: I don't see what the hype surrounding Henry is all about.

He has never helped lead his team to the super bowl and I don't see it happening this year as well A team winning a SB is a team statistic; has nothing to do with the RB or any one individual, including the QB. I agree the Titans aren't winning the SB this year, but Henry is still a hell of a back who has the ability to give us fits if he play and he is healthy. But just because Vrabel says he's almost ready to come back (or implies that) doesn't mean he actually is almost ready to come back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FilthyBeast Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Bills are going to have a chance to exorcise a lot of demons in true gauntlet fashion in a few weeks. If they do make a deep run it's going to be earned given the potential list of opponents they may have to run through starting with the Patriots and Belichink in a playoff game, then possibly going back to TEN with Henry returning in round two.

If he's anywhere near 100% the Titans with AJ, a bye, and home field will be a tough team for the Bills to win. First things first win the first home playoff games.

Their run game has actually averaged more yards and the same YPC without Henry. Exhibit A as to why you don't pay RBs big money, even if they are a first ballot HOF caliber player.
