Former Alabama running back Mark Ingram, a Heisman winner in his own right, accompanied Derrick Henry to midfield for the pregame coin toss in tonight’s national championship game against Clemson.
A few images were taken, and it’s a little startling seeing how much smaller Ingram is in Henry’s shadow.
That’s before you realize that Henry is 6-foot-3 and 242 pounds, while Ingram is 5-foot-9, 215 pounds.
Still, Twitter had a field day as several fans marveled at Henry’s enormity.
