Outlook Derrick Henry
Derrick Henry vs LAC at home: poised for heavy volume in favorable script
Healthy heading into Monday night, Henry remains the clear lead back ahead of Justice Hill after Baltimore kept him past the trade deadline. With Lamar Jackson out on injured reserve, efficiency has dipped to 3.9 yards per carry over the last two weeks, though veteran Jacoby Brissett stepping in under center could help steady the offense as the Ravens try to snap a four-game skid.
As a locked-in starter across virtually every league, Henry benefits from facing the winless Chargers as a home favorite in a projected low-scoring contest. Our weekly projection lands near 18 carries, 73 rushing yards, and roughly 15 PPR points, giving fantasy managers every reason to keep him in lineups as a strong RB1 despite limited passing-game involvement.

Outlook Kaleb Johnson
Kaleb Johnson vs MIN at home — intriguing committee option with Josh Jacobs out
With Josh Jacobs out due to a fractured finger, Johnson steps into an expanded role in Green Bay's backfield. Coming off a 68-yard, one-touchdown performance, offensive coordinator Adam Stenavich praised Johnson's hard running and improved pass protection. Although listed behind MarShawn Lloyd on the depth chart, Johnson should carve out meaningful committee touches behind a banged-up offensive line.
Fantasy managers have surged to add him, pushing his roster rate to 30% while his start rate sits at 7%. Our weekly projection lands near six fantasy points on roughly nine carries and 34 rushing yards. As slight home favorites in a divisional matchup with the Vikings, he profiles as a deep-league flex option if he handles goal-line work.
