Titans RB Henry out indefinitely with injury

NFL rushing leader Derrick Henry will have surgery Tuesday on his right foot, and coach Mike Vrabel says the Titans are not putting a timeline on when he will return.

Henry had tests Monday to check the severity of the injury after he finished a 34-31 OT win against the Colts. The Titans placed Henry on injured reserve Monday afternoon.

Henry, the 2020 offensive player of the year, leads the NFL with 937 yards rushing, 10 TDs and 219 carries.

The Titans were finalizing a deal to sign 2012 MVP and four-time All-Pro RB Adrian Peterson, 36, to the practice squad with plans to promote him to the active roster.
