The Tennessee Titans’ star is demonstrating his versatility! The Titans scored in stunning way only seconds into the second quarter against the Seattle Seahawks. The running back showed amazing grace on his passing effort after grabbing a lead and pulling out all of the tricks to achieve a win.
Tennessee Titans RB Scores Pass
Derrick Henry took a handoff from Ryan Tannehill, and while he may have scored regardless, the Tennessee Titans running back threw the ball into the end zone to Chig Okonkwo for the touchdown.
It’s simply not fair for opposition defenders looking to prepare to stop the run against the Titans’ front. A wide open Chig Okonkwo will probably never score an easier six points in his life with this capacity to garner such respect.
It makes you question if the Tennessee Titans could ever be forced to run a wild cat offense and still be successful.
Third Quarterback for the Tennessee Titans
Due to an injury and rookie Will Levis demonstrating great potential, some have pointed out that Derrick Henry now has the same number of touchdown passes as Ryan Tannehill. Although this will soon change, it demonstrates the position at which the former Pro Bowler is at in his career. He is in a contract year and hopes to perform strong in order to secure a spot on another team next year.
Derrick Henry has three passing attempts and two total passing touchdowns this season. His touchdown-to-attempt ratio of 66.6% ranks among the league’s top at this stage in the season.
The Tennessee Titans, who are now bottom in the AFC South, are fighting for pride and want to be the spoiler. With the team now sitting at 5 and 9, even a win over the Seahawks signals a practical awareness that the playoffs are not in the cards for them this year.
While not technically eliminated, they would need a lot more Derick Henry passes and a lot of dominoes to fall their way to slip in. However, regardless of the final team standings, a magnificent play deserves to be recognized.
Derrick Henry’s most recent throw attempt puts him at 8 of 10 all-time, with 5 total touchdowns. As a result, he is one of the most effective quarterbacks in NFL history.
