The Tennessee Titans took former Alabama running back Derrick Henry with the 45th overall pick of this year’s draft, and so far, he’s been working out well for them. Henry has rushed for an impressive 4.4 yards per carry, and has been learning behind veteran running back DeMarco Murray.
With the Titans up 10-0 early in the second quarter of Thursday’s game against the Jaguars, it seemed like a good time to get Henry some reps and his first career NFL touchdown, considering how bad Jacksonville is.
He received a handoff on third-and-goal from the six, and used a nice jump-cut to bounce it outside and run it in for the score.

We’ll certainly be seeing more of that in the future.
