Titans Make Derrick Henry's Status for Saturday Official

Derrick Henry will make his return to the gridiron on Saturday, as the Titans host the Bengals in the AFC divisional round.

Just minutes before the 4 p.m. ET deadline to activate the superstar running back, Tennessee made it official.

Henry returned to full-contact practice this week, after breaking his foot back in Week 8 against the Colts. The injury required surgery, including the insertion of a steel plate in his foot. Even with that procedure, Henry says he “feels great,” and doesn't have lingering pain from the injury.

Before the injury, Henry led the NFL with 937 yards and 10 touchdown.
