As we touched on heading into the game, Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry was entering a favorable matchup against the Green Bay Packers on “Thursday Night Football.”
The King had 28 carries for 87 yards and rumbled into the endzone on a four-yard touchdown run. It wasn’t his best day by any means, but he definitely earned every yard.
After the dust has settled, both from Thursday night and the games on Sunday, Henry is atop the leaderboard in rushing with 1,010 yards.
Here’s how the top five looks after Week 11:
Derrick Henry – 1,010 yards
Saquon Barkley – 953 yards
Josh Jacobs – 930 yards
Nick Chubb – 923 yards
Justin Fields – 834 yards
Henry will now go up against a Cincinnati Bengals’ rushing defense that is in the middle of the pack entering Week 12, allowing 4.
