Tennessee Titans: 5 Most Impressive Players So Far
2. Derrick Henry, 663 yards, 4.6 avg, 7 TD’s
Anybody who hasn’t been living under a rock for the past couple of years is likely aware that Derrick Henry is an absolute monster.
Does any other team have a back that can do this?
Henry led the league in rushing a season ago and looks well on his way to doing so again in 2020. Everybody knows the NFL in 2020 is a pass-first league, but Henry has completely taken over games unlike any running back in 2020.
Similarly to Tannehill, some believed that Henry’s legendary 2019 performance was a flash in the pan. Well, it’s now week 8 in the 2020 season, and Derrick Henry is currently the leading rusher once again and is tied for the league-lead with 7 rushing TD’s.
Henry has also contributed 10 receptions for 81 yards, bringing a different dynamic to the offense. The contributions of Henry are more-so amplified when you realize the Titans have gotten absolutely zero production out of rookie backup running back Darrynton Evans.
Unfortunately for Henry, there’s one more player on this team who has delivered an MVP-worthy performance thus far…
