Fantasy Impact:
Henery was a former fourth-round pick of the Eagles in 2011. He kicked in Philadelphia for three season and has a career 86 percent field goal percentage (74 of 86). He made 23 of 28 field goals last year, with a long of 51 yards. He should get plenty of opportunities with the Lions normally-explosive offense, so he's worth watching for a week or two before adding in any leagues.
