Titans RB Derrick Henry
Has Record-Setting Day
Against the Jaguars Henry rushed for 238 yards and
four touchdowns in Tennessee’s
30-9 victory. He had cracked 100 yards just twice in
43 career games coming into
Thursday night. It is just the 10th time since 1950 that a running back has rushed for 200 yards and scored four TD's. It is the NFL's first 200-yard, four-touchdown performance since
New England's Jonas Gray did it in 2014. Henry, the 2015 Heisman Trophy winner, did it on five fewer carries than any of
his predecessors. One of Henry's touchdowns was a 99-yard scamper that tied the longest touchdown run in NFL history. It matches Hall of Fame running back
Tony Dorsett's 99-yard-run in 1983.
