Denver’s rush defense is struggling and now has to stop Tennessee’s Derrick Henry
If any Broncos defensive players or coaches settled into the couch during the bye week Sunday and watched football, they probably got a good look at Tennessee running back Derrick Henry continuing his torrid stretch against Kansas City.
“He’s a great running back, there’s no sugar-coating it,” Broncos defensive lineman DeShawn Williams said. Henry is averaging 23 carries per game and has seen that rate go up even further during his current tear. In consecutive wins against Washington, Indianapolis and Houston he carried the ball 28, 30 and 32 times, respectively, before his 17 carries for 115 yards in the overtime loss to the Chiefs on Sunday night.
