Tennessee Titans star running back Derrick Henry absolutely loves going up against the Houston Texans. He’s dominated them time and time again. On Sunday afternoon, he was once again making quick work of the Texans and he ripped off a 30-yard touchdown run in the second quarter.

Check it out below.

He made three defenders miss on his way to the end zone. The touchdown was his 74th career rushing touchdown, tying him with Eddie George for the most touchdowns in Titans/Oilers history, according to ESPN Stats & Info. Not only that, but he is also now the Titans’ all-time leader in rushing yards gained against the Texans franchise, passing Chris Johnson.

Henry has already racked up over 100 rushing yards and a touchdown in the first half on Sunday’s game, once again dominating the Texans. He also scored a touchdown in the second half-giving him 75 career touchdowns–passing Eddie George for the most all-time.

Derrick Henry has been one of the greatest running backs at every level of football he’s played on over the years

Fun fact: Henry is the only running back in the history of the game to run for over 2,000 yards in a season in high school (all four years of high school), college (2,219 yards), and the NFL (2,027 yards).

Henry established himself as one of the greatest running backs in high school football history. He pounded and pummeled his way through defenders to the tune of 12,124 rushing yards–setting the national high school career rushing yards record. The record Henry broke, Ken Hall’s 11,232 rushing yards for Sugar Land High School (Texas) in the early 1950s, stood for 51 years.
