One NFL player you wish never played for your favorite team

Tennessee Titans: Chris Henry, RB

Even before the days of Derrick Henry, the Tennessee Titans organization had their most success when they had a dangerous rushing attack. Their first huge superstar was Earl Campbell back when they were still the Houston Oilers.

Then in the late 1990s through the early 2000s, they had Eddie George — who was with them when they moved from Houston to Tennessee. George even helped them to the Super Bowl where they came up just short against the St. Louis Rams — during their “Greatest Show on Turf” era.

A few seasons after George was gone, the Titans went for a new running back they hoped could carry the lad as they used pick No. 50 in the 2007 NFL Draft on Arizona’s Chris Henry. A bruiser at 5-11 and 230-pounds, Henry also had great speed for his size — he even put up a 4.41 in the 40-yard dash.

Sadly, he was never able to get his career going with the Titans. He was suspended in his rookie season for violating the league’s substance-abuse policy and ended up playing in just seven games. He had only 31 rushing attempts for 119 yards and scored two touchdowns.

Henry then managed just one more rush in his entire career, gaining a total of three yards in 2008. He was released by Tennessee early in 2009 and got a shot with the Houston Texans in 2009 and Seattle Seahawks in 2010 but never got another rushing attempt.
