Derrick Henry was, entering the 2025 season, arguably the most secure prolific runner in NFL history. He has fumbled three times in as many games so far this year, and nobody is in more disbelief than he is about it. “I’m at a loss for words”, he told reporters, via ESPN, when asked for his reaction to his latest critical fumble.
Henry only recorded 20 fumbles in 2,355 rushing attempt prior to this season. At a fumble rate of just 0.008 percent, there are few, like Curtis Martin, who are in his class. Yet through three games this year, on just 41 rushing attempts, he has put the ball on the ground three times.
