NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Tennessee offensive coordinator Terry Robiskie promised Derrick Henry he would touch the ball more as an NFL rookie than the running back did as a freshman back in college at Alabama.
Robiskie delivered, actually doubling up on the workload Henry had his first year in college with four games left.
It’s just nowhere near what any NFL running back really wants.
A year after winning the Heisman Trophy, Henry is honing his patience with the Titans, backing up the NFL’s second-leading rusher in DeMarco Murray.
