‘Stand Up’: James Harrison Challenges Steelers’ Defense To Stop Derrick Henry

Derrick Henry brutalized the Pittsburgh Steelers the last time he faced them. He ran for 186 yards and two touchdowns in the Baltimore Ravens’ playoff win over the Steelers last January. It was an embarrassing showing for Pittsburgh’s defense that led to another postseason one and done. Unfortunately, that unit hasn’t fared much better against the run this season. It just surrendered almost 250 rushing yards to the Buffalo Bills. As a result, James Harrison challenged the Steelers’ defense to step up this week.

“I got Derrick Henry for more,” Harrison said Friday on his Deebo and Joe podcast.
