It seems that Titans fans are still rooting for Derrick Henry despite recent departure

   

Derrick Henry doesn't play for the Tennessee Titans anymore but that hasn't stopped Titans fans from seeing how Henry is doing in his post-Tennessee career. Henry signed with the Baltimore Ravens this past offseason and, unsurprisingly, is crushing it with his new team.

The long-time Titans running back has rushed for over 1,400 yards and 13 touchdowns while tallying another 125 receiving yards and two receiving touchdowns in a Ravens uniform. As expected, Henry has made the Ravens offense better while the Titans' offense has gotten worse without him.

Pro Football Reference recently revealed the most-viewed player page in every state in 2024 and it should come as no surprise that Tennessee's most-viewed player page was none other than Derrick "The King" Henry.

Titans fans are clearly still intrigued by Derrick Henry

Henry was a second-round pick by the Titans in 2016 after an outstanding career at Alabama and it took Henry a few years to become the player he eventually became. By Year 3, Henry had over 1,000 rushing yards and 12 touchdowns and then went on to rush for over 1,000 yards in all but one of his final five years in Nashville.

Henry's best season as a Titan came in 2020 when he became the first player since Adrian Peterson in 2012 to rush for over 2,000 yards. Henry finished that season with 2,027 yards and 17 touchdowns, easily securing the Offensive Player of the Year award.

It wasn't surprising to see the Titans move on from Henry following the 2023 season. Mike Vrabel had been let go and the team was headed for a rebuild that didn't include a 30-year-old running back. Henry has shown that he still has plenty left in the tank, however, and Titans fans are still rooting for him even if they're not going to root for the team he's suiting up for now.

As for the rest of the states' most-viewed player pages, the majority of them are either locked into Patrick Mahomes or Henry's new quarterback Lamar Jackson. Henry is the only non-quarterback to be the most-viewed player page, which is interesting. It goes to show just how much Henry meant to Titans fans and the state of Tennessee.
