Terry Robiskie pored over the statistics Sunday night, after the Titans lost their second consecutive game, 16-10, to the Dolphins in Miami.

One number leapt off the page. It applied to Derrick Henry.

But as the Titans’ offensive coordinator, responsibility resides with Robiskie.

“You sit down and look at your sheet and you say, ‘Wow. He had four touches,’” Robiskie said after practice Thursday. “You’ve just got to find a way to put the ball in his hands. I don’t know where those touches are going to come from, but they’re going to come from somewhere, we hope. We’re going to find a way to put the ball in his hands a couple more times.”

The Titans are 10-1 when Henry receives at least seven carries, including 2-0 this season. They are 1-8 in games when he does not, including 0-3 this season.

The Titans (2-3) host the Colts (2-3) on "Monday Night Football," a critical game as both teams strive to keep pace in the AFC South.

Henry has played second fiddle to veteran DeMarco Murray ever since the Titans used a 2016 second-round draft pick to pluck the bruising running back out of Alabama, where he won the Heisman Trophy and helped lead the Crimson Tide to a national championship.

When Murray’s hamstring injury flared in Week 2, Henry rumbled for a career-high 92 yards on 14 carries in a blowout victory against the Jaguars on Sept. 18, the Titans’ first win of the season.

The backs virtually split the workload the following week in a victory against the Seahawks on Sept. 24. Henry had 54 yards on 13 carries, one fewer than Murray, who ran for 115 yards on 14 touches, including a 75-yard score.

But from there, Henry’s opportunities and impact have largely vanished.

Henry managed just seven yards on six carries in a blowout loss against the Texans on Oct. 1, and just nine yards on four carries last weekend against the Dolphins, his fewest touches in a game this season.

“We talked about it after that (we) probably need to do a better job of getting Derrick some more balls,” Titans coach Mike Mularkey said Monday.

Robiskie has said Henry gets stronger the more he touches the ball and wears down opponents.

But Murray remains the superior player in pass protection.

Murray is averaging 54.6 yards per game, the worst of any season in his career aside from his disastrous 2015 season in Philadelphia. But that’s a product of his usage rate.

The Titans are giving Murray an average of 11.2 carries per game, by far the lowest of his career, and nearly two full carries fewer than the Eagles provided before trading him to Tennessee for a swap of fourth-round picks.

Murray is still effective. His 4.9 yards per carry rates better than his 4.7 average with the Cowboys in 2014, when a massive workload helped him become the NFL's offensive player of the year.

"I think for this offense it’s important across the board, just for us to get going, Derrick and myself," Murray said. "We’ve just got to find ways to run the ball, and us as running backs, we’ve got to find ways to make it hard for them not to call run plays."

Opponents are stacking the box on defense, but the Titans might be well-served by feeding both Murray and Henry more often.

Tennessee ranks in the bottom half of the league (18th) in rushing attempts per game (26.2), nearly four rushes fewer than last season, when they ranked third by averaging 29.8 carries and Murray led the AFC in rushing yards.

Murray’s success may lead to Henry’s success, which since the start of last season, has led to the Titans’ success.

“When you sit down and look at it, look at the scheme and everything we’ve been going and doing,” Robiskie said, “at the end of the day, when Derrick’s in the game and we hand him the ball, somewhere the guy, he makes a play. You know what I mean? You go back to last year, his rookie year, there were situations where he went the wrong way. We’d throw a ball to him and he went the wrong way with it, and the guy comes back around and goes about 60 yards. He’s a good football player.”

Titans hope Marcus Mariota starts

The Titans remain hopeful that Marcus Mariota will be able to play against the Colts on Monday Night Football, but the quarterback remains limited by a hamstring injury suffered Oct. 1. Mariota missed last weekend's loss at Miami. He may be a game-time decision.

Left tackle Taylor Lewan (knee) returned to practice as a full participant Friday. Linebacker Daren Bates (knee) was limited.

Wide receiver Corey Davis (hamstring) and safety Johnathan Cyprien (hamstring) have been ruled out.
