Derrick Henry carried the load for the Tennessee Titans in their 37-16 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday, and an injury to DeMarco Murray had a lot to do with that.
Henry carried 14 times for 92 yards and scored a touchdown in the game. Murray, who is normally the team’s featured back, rushed 9 times for 25 yards.
Titans head coach Mike Mularkey said after the game that Murray had a hamstring injury.

Murray also dealt with a hamstring injury in the preseason.
In addition to Murray, rookie first-round pick Corey Davis also took it easy because of a hamstring issue. He had one catch for four yards.
