Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry originally committed to Georgia while a football star at Yulee High School. But he ended up winning the 2015 Heisman Trophy at Alabama. Henry used his college choice as an example when speaking to young athletes on Sunday night.
For the second straight year, Henry served as the guest speaker for the Tennessean Sports Awards, which recognized the top high school athletes in Tennessee from the past year.
During a question-and-answer session with Rachel Baribeau of SiriusXM and ESPN, Henry talked about his decision to attend Alabama after piling up a prep national-record 12,124 career rushing yards.
