Tennessee Titans fans are wishing Derrick Henry the best after the running back made an announcement following the team’s upset of the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 18. The Titans spoiled the Jaguars’ chances of making the postseason, but they knew their season would end Sunday for several weeks.
Per the NFL, Henry thanked Titans fans after the game for supporting him during his eight seasons in Nashville.
Thank you for the greatest eight years of my life,” Henry said. “The ups and downs, y’all have been there for everything.”
“Through the adversity, watching me grow as a person and player, always supporting me. I love seeing you all, all the 22s [Henry jerseys] in the stadium. Hopefully, I was an inspiration to all the young kids and everyone in the community. And God is good. Titan up, baby.”
