Titans running back Derrick Henry ran away with Offensive Player of the Year just as he ran away from defenses this season.
He got 32 of 50 votes, far outdistancing quarterbacks Patrick Mahomes and Aaron Rodgers with five apiece.
Henry became the eighth running back to top 2,000 yards in a single season. He rushed for 2,027 yards, the fifth-most in NFL history. He was not far off Eric Dickerson’s single-season NFL record of 2,105 yards, which Dickerson rushed for during the 1984 season.
“We take a lot of pride in the running game and have had success, and then anything is possible with the group I am with, [so] we could accomplish it,” Henry told the Associated Press.
