Derrick Henry needs more receptions
Titans coach Mike Vrabel says Derrick Henry needs to be more involved as a pass-catcher, and Jared Dubin writes that the data backs up that idea:
“The thing is, though, Henry is actually a pretty efficient pass-catcher. Consider this: among the 63 running backs with at least 50 receptions over the past four seasons, Henry ranks seventh in yards per reception (9.2) despite having an average route-break 1.4 yards behind the line of scrimmage, per Pro Football Focus and TruMedia. Henry also ranks third among that same group of players in yards after catch per reception (9.9).”
