There has never been a player in NFL history who has made big plays look as easy as Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry does — and we saw that once again in Week 6 against the Buffalo Bills.
In the second quarter with the Titans trailing 6-0 and showing zero signs of life on offense, Henry gave Tennessee a spark with a 76-yard touchdown run to give his team its first lead of the evening.
Shoutout to tight end Geoff Swaim and wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, both of who had key blocks to spring The King.
According to ESPN Stats & Info, Henry reached a top speed of 21.8 miles per hour, which is the fastest speed recorded by a ball carrier this season.
Henry stands at 6-foot-3 and 247 pounds; the man simply isn’t human.
The Alabama product had a 117-yard lead for the most rushing yards in the NFL coming into Monday night. He has quickly added to that lead.
