Derrick Henry: Hall of Fame worthy?
He closed out the season strong with 153 rushing yards today, breaking 1,000 yards for the year. Also scored a TD.
He has 90 rushing TDs in his career. That puts him in a 3-way tie for 13th all-time with Eric Dickerson and Curtis Martin.
He just passed Earl Campbell and Shaun Alexander today for 36th spot in career rushing yards (9,502 total).
Named 2020 AP Offensive Player of the Year.
3-time Pro Bowler (2019, 2020, & 2022).
First Team All-Pro (2020) & Second Team All-Pro (2019).
One of eight running backs to rush for over 2,000 yards in a single season. It was the fifth-most yards in a single NFL regular season (2,027).
He's 30, an age when running backs can fall off a cliff. But maybe he has a few productive seasons left in him.
So would you vote him into Canton today based on his existing career achievements, or would you reserve your vote until his final stats are in because he doesn't deserve it yet?
