No changing of the guard in Tennessee for Derrick Henry despite Sunday's strong showing

Running back Derrick Henry came off the bench to spark the Tennessee Titans to a 37-16 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday.

Henry's second-half performance doesn't mean he's overtaken DeMarco Murray as the Titans' No. 1 running back, Tennessee coach Mike Mularkey said. But the former Alabama star might be in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Seattle Seahawks.

Henry got extended playing time against Jacksonville with Murray afflicted by a hamstring issue.

He responded by reaching a career high of 92 rushing yards on 14 carries. In the first half, Henry had two carries for 5 yards.
