Report: Derrick Henry's Leg Injury Diagnosed as Strained Calf; Will Miss 2 Weeks

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry is expected to be sidelined for two weeks due to a strained calf, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.

Schefter noted the injury is "not considered serious" and that the team is taking the cautious approach. Tennessee coach Mike Vrabel previously labeled it as a "day-to-day" injury:

Henry is currently in a walking boot.

The Titans' hopes of improving on last season's 9-7 record are mostly tied into the health and development of quarterback Marcus Mariota.
