Derrick Henry will be back on Sunday.

Henry, the Titans’ rookie running back who missed last week with a calf injury, will return this week against the Packers.

Although Henry had been out of practice all week, he was back today and a full participant. Titans coach Mike Mularkey confirmed after practice that Henry is good to go.

Titans running back DeMarco Murray has been taking it easy in practice this week with a toe injury, but he’ll be good to go on Sunday as well. Murray is the Titans’ top back and is having a very good bounce-back season with 807 yards and seven touchdowns. As a backup, Henry has played well, with 221 yards and one touchdown. The Titans are third in the NFL in rushing with 144.2 yards per game.
