How big is now
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.
Vs bills
In a game that involved one of the most dangerous offensive weapons in the NFL, it’s only fitting that the Buffalo Bills and Tennessee Titans exchanged big blow after big blow in a four-quarter slugfest on national TV for Monday Night Football.
Derrick Henry showed the world once again how unstoppable he can be, hitting the Bills with punishing short runs and even breaking a few down the field – including a 76-yard touchdown run in the first half. He put an exclamation point on the game in the fourth quarter with his third touchdown. Bills quarterback Josh Allen threw for three touchdowns but was stopped on a 4th and goal quarterback sneak with under :30 seconds to play.
Stiff arm
Henry delivered the stiff arm midway through the first quarter of the Titans’ win. It was one of the most thunderous stiff-arms that the NFL has ever seen.
Contract
Derrick Henry signed a 4 year, $50,000,000 contract with the Tennessee Titans, including a $12,000,000 signing bonus, $25,500,000 guaranteed, and an average annual salary of $12,500,000. In 2021, Henry will earn a base salary of $10,500,000, while carrying a cap hit of $13,500,000 and a dead cap value of $19,500,000.
