2. Derrick Henry – Total Receptions (2.5)
Henry isn’t what you’d call a dynamic pass catcher out of the backfield by any means, but he can get the job done when necessary. Also, why throw it to him when he’s so good at moving the chains on the ground, right?
The Chiefs defense is looking for a statement win and have gained some confidence after Week 6, but they’ve also left basically anything open underneath or in the flats for opponents with horrific coverage from its linebacking corps thus far. And given the low total here, it could spell some good things for Henry in the air.
Henry has only four receptions in the last three games for the Titans, but he was over the 2.5 line here for each of the season’s first three games and the Titans might find a way to surprise the Chiefs here with a few simple tosses to Henry for some first downs.
Pick: Over (-125)
