Should I start Kenyon Sadiq or Derrick Henry in Week 10?

Updated Nov 10, 6:16 AM ET.

Start Derrick Henry: 49 percent of the snaps and 57 percent of the carries over their last 3 games, against Kenyon Sadiq's 41 percent of the snaps and 7 percent of the targets. No market projection is posted on either of them this week, so this is a usage call, and a lower confidence one than a call made on a projection. What follows is what each of them has done.

Should I drop Kenyon Sadiq for Derrick Henry?

Yes, on the rest of the season. Derrick Henry projects 109 market-implied PPR points from Week 10 through Week 17 (15.6 a game over 7 games), Kenyon Sadiq 37 (5.3 a game over 7 games).

The gap

  • Board size305 draftable players

Draft data is not current for these two, so the figures that depend on it are left out. The call above comes from each player's usage.

Where the draft room stands

Live drafts hold no current pick on Kenyon Sadiq, and the board ranks him 46th overall on the rest of his evidence.

Live drafts hold no current pick on Derrick Henry, and the board ranks him 47th overall on the rest of his evidence.

The market-based projections

No season market is posted for Kenyon Sadiq, so the only market valuing him on this page is the draft room.

The market-based projection for Derrick Henry is 6.1 PPR points a game off 1 market across 1 market source. That is 30 percent of what a running back's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.

Their 2025 seasons

Kenyon Sadiq is a rookie, so there is no NFL season behind him to price him against.

In 2025 Derrick Henry played 17 games and scored 279.5 PPR points, 16.4 a game, finishing RB8.

He carried 307 times for 1595 yards and 16 touchdowns, and caught 15 of 21 targets for 150 more yards.

That came to 18.1 carries a game at 5.2 yards a carry and 0.9 catches a game.

He was on the field for 54 percent of the snaps in the games he played.

Side by side

Kenyon Sadiq is a tight end and Derrick Henry a running back, so the question is which slot you fill first rather than which of them is better.

Byes and availability

Both are off in Week 13, so a roster holding the pair has that one week to cover twice.
