Derrick Henry is an outlier in today’s National Football League.
If one lets media pundits explain the value of a running back, they will state how players at the position must be able to contribute in the passing game for a team to be successful. Henry is not required to do this for the Tennessee Titans and he has the franchise positioned for another run in the AFC playoffs. We have reached the point in the season where his massive frame starts to wear opponents down. This happened on Sunday versus the Baltimore Ravens, as Henry turned in his sixth 100-yard performance of the year in a 30-24 victory for the Titans.
