Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry is not in concussion protocol, head coach Mike Vrabel clarified Monday, refuting an earlier report.
Henry left Sunday’s 31-28 overtime loss to the Indianapolis Colts in the fourth quarter and did not return.
“He was checked and they deemed him not able to return. But doing great, zero symptoms. Worked out this morning,” Vrabel said Monday.
The Titans (4-8) return to action next Monday night against the host Miami Dolphins (9-3).
Henry, 29, rushed for 102 yards and two touchdowns before exiting Sunday’s setback against the Colts. Vrabel said he and trainers went to Henry’s side because “of the way he got up,” on Sunday.
“We will monitor how he’s feeling, any symptoms that may come up just like we would any player,” Vrabel said.
The two-time NFL rushing king has rushed for 841 yards and eight touchdowns in 12 games this season.
