Entering Week 7, Derrick Henry was on a scorching pace with 704 rushing yards in six games. For the second time in his career, he was beating his 2020 pace — the season he became the eighth player in NFL history to rush for 2,000+ yards.
Stunningly, that wasn’t his best-ever pace. In 2021, Henry was a torrential force. Averaging 27 carries per game, he was the Tennessee Titans’ offense and was hammering defenses to the tune of 783 rushing yards in the first six contests.
