Derrick Henry: Start

Derrick Henry saved what could have been a disappointing fantasy showing in Week 9 with two scores in the second half, one of which was through the air. Otherwise, Henry was sorely misused and saw just 13 carries, and just two of those carries came in the first half.

Henry did see three targets in that game, which was tied for the most he’s seen in a single game this season. He turned those targets into 36 yards, and found the end zone on a beautiful catch-and-run of 23 yards.

This matchup with the Chiefs is an enticing one. KC sports the fourth-worst run defense in the NFL this season and is surrendering the fourth-most fantasy points per game to the position.

However, the Chiefs did a great job bottling up Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook last week, so this unit might be on the verge of figuring out its biggest weakness. Regardless, we have to go with the biggest sample size, and that sample size says the Chiefs have problems stopping the run.
