Derrick Henry's answer for best running back in the NFL may surprise you

Titans' Derrick Henry answer for who is the best running back in the NFL may come as a surprise.

Derrick Henry has been one of the most dominant running backs to ever gallop on the gridiron but even he thinks there is someone better than him. When asked who he thinks the best player at his position is, he gave a surprising response.

“That’s Nick Chubb,” he told NBC’s Mike Tirico on Sunday.

The exchange happened before the Titans tailback rushed for 115 yards and two touchdowns during the Sunday night loss to the Chiefs. Despite being a two-time All-Pro and two-time rushing yards leader, the 28-year-old is also humble to boot. That being said, Chubb is no slouch.
