Young sports fans are getting a closer look at Tennessee Titans superstar running back Derrick Henry as he graces the cover of Sports Illustrated Kids’ March/April issue.
In the issue, Henry gives out some tips for the Madden video game, and the cover reads “Derrick Henry is OP”. For those who don’t know, “OP” stands for overpowered in video game lingo.
Henry has been the definition of overpowered the past two seasons, as he’s won the rushing title in each. More recently, Henry rushed for over 2,000 yards in 2020, becoming the eighth player in NFL history to do so.
