VIDEO: Derrick Henry High School Highlights Are Absolutely Insane
By Jerry Trotta
Remember when scouts lectured us on how Derrick Henry's colossal frame wouldn't translate to being a productive NFL tailback? Well, they were wrong. So wrong, in fact, that the Alabama product is fresh of hoisting the rushing crown and is presently carving up Bill Belichick and the Patriots defense in the Wild Card Round. In honor of the 6-3, 247-pound monster taking the league by storm (and his birthday), let's pay tribute to his extraordinary high school highlight montage.
Good grief. How is it possible for a human to be that tall, fast, and utterly shredded at that age?
Every defender opposing Henry deserves some sort of hardware for having the gal to even think about tackling him. And for those that didn't, we don't at all blame you.
Henry was destined for superstardom from day one, and it's quite nice to see him prove his doubters wrong.
