Bears safety Kevin Byard knows how not to tackle Derrick Henry. He had a front-row view of defenders bouncing off the hulking running back when the two played together with the Titans from 2016-23.
“Don’t go high, I’ll tell you that,” he said. “I’ve been on the sideline and watching that guy stiff-arm everybody into the dirt.”
Sunday in Baltimore, Byard will face Henry — a good friend and, he said, a future Pro Football Hall of Famer — for the first time as a pro.
“I’m excited for that and try to avoid that stiff arm,” he said.
