Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry was well on his way to a third consecutive rushing title when disaster struck in Week 8. Unbeknownst to him at the time, Henry suffered a broken foot in an overtime win over Indianapolis. He quickly underwent surgery, and he was sidelined for the rest of the season with many expecting we wouldn’t see him again until the 2022 season.
Just 11 weeks later, Henry plans to suit up on Saturday as the Titans, the AFC’s No. 1 seed, preparer to make their postseason debut against a Cincinnati Bengals team coming off a win in the wild-card round over the Las Vegas Raiders.
Henry has modern medicine to thank for such a rapid turnaround, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.
