Titans’ Derrick Henry nominated for ‘FedEx Ground Player of the Week’

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry has been nominated for the “FedEx Ground Player of the Week” honor for his performance on Sunday against the Atlanta Falcons in a 28-23 victory.

Henry had one of his best games of the 2023 campaign, tallying 101 yards on 22 carries, good enough for 4.6 yards per tote. The yardage output was the second-most Henry has totaled in a game.
