Henry ties longest rushing touchdown in NFL history as Titans tramps Jaguars

Derrick Henry sped and stiff-armed his way to a record-tying 99-yard touchdown run and the Tennessee Titans routed the Jacksonville Jaguars 30-9 on Thursday night to stay in the playoff chase.

Henry tied Tony Dorsett’s 99-yarder in January 1983 for Dallas against Minnesota for the longest TD run in NFL history. Henry ran to his left and up the sideline, stiff-arming first Jaguars cornerback AJ Bouye, then rookie linebacker Leon Jacobs twice and finally shoved past linebacker Myles Jack to finish off the TD. The 2015 Heisman Trophy winner celebrated by striking the Heisman pose not once, but twice.

Henry set a franchise record with 238 yards on just 16 carries, topping the previous mark of 228 yards set by Chris Johnson in 2009 against, yes, the Jaguars. He finished with a career-high four TDs, tying Lorenzo White and hall of fame running back Earl Campbell for most rushing TDs in a single game in franchise history. Henry also became the first player in the NFL with four rushing TDs in a game since Jonas Gray of the Patriots in Week 11 in 2014.

With the rout and second win in a row, the Titans (7-6) stayed in AFC playoff contention with their fourth straight victory over their division rival. They’ve won six of their last seven against Jacksonville. The Jaguars (4-9) have lost eight of their last nine.
