Fantasy Analysis
Henderson finishes 2011 with 110 tackles, putting him over 100 for the fourth time in his career. That's a decent enough number for a linebacker, but because Henderson isn't a reliable source of sacks or interceptions, he'll be more like a No. 3 Fantasy IDP option entering 2012. (Updated 01/01/2012).
E.J. Henderson finished second on the team in total tackles with 109 and added two sacks, three passes defensed and three forced fumbles. But he's a man without a team this offseason, which is a strange twist given that he came back strong from a broken leg for two consecutive years. Henderson is 31 and is considered to be past his prime, especially given that he had problems with his knee last season. There just might not be a big opportunity for him to put up a ton of stats. Until he signs somewhere, he shouldn't be trusted with anything more than a very late-round pick. (Updated 4/24/12)
