Titans running back Derrick Henry is turning in a virtuoso performance in what could be his final game with Tennessee.
On a first-and-10 at the Jacksonville Jaguars 18-yard line, Henry burst through the line of scrimmage and scored a TD, giving the Titans a 14-10 lead. It's the 90th rushing TD of his career, tying Hall of Famers Curtis Martin and Eric Dickerson.

Henry, 30, is in the final year of a four-year, $50M deal. It appears Tennessee (5-11) is prepared to enter rebuilding mode after missing the playoffs for a second straight season. The Titans also drafted a potential replacement in RB2 Tyjae Spears.
If the former first-team All-Pro enters free agency this offseason, several teams will be interested in signing an elite player still in his prime. Entering Week 18, he's sixth in the league in rushing yards (1,014) and second in carries (261). His market value is a one-year deal with $4.3M.
