"Why isn't Ryan Tannehill good enough?" That is what Henry claims he would say if the Titans signed Brady. That is one heck of an endorsement for Tannehill in free agency this offseason.
Henry went on to clarify his respect for Brady saying, "Tom Brady's the GOAT, there's no question."

"What would you think if Tom Brady came to the Titans?"
Derrick Henry: "I would think...why isn't Ryan Tannehill good enough?"
Henry wants to be back in Tennessee with Tannehill.
Tannehill took over for Marcus Mariota and helped get the Titans to the AFC Championship Game. Henry was obviously a main reason why the Titans had postseason success, but they would not have gotten there if Mariota remained the starter.
With Brady being linked to the Titans, Henry showed just how loyal a teammate he is by voicing his faith for Tannehill.
