Though it may have taken longer than expected, former Alabama RB Derrick Henry finally found the end zone for the Tennessee Titans on Thursday night.
The reigning Heisman winner took a handoff at the six-yard line, made a nice cut to the outside and outraced the Jacksonville defenders to the corner of the end zone.
Henry ran for 28 touchdowns for Alabama last year, or an average of more than two per game.
With only one score through seven games for the Titans so far, Henry won’t come close to those numbers in his rookie season, but he’s still been a valuable player for Tennessee.
