HOUSTON — Derrick Henry was feeling it Sunday, running all over the Houston Texans like he has so many times before. “It was cool to see that because they weren’t stopping him.” Henry dominated the Texans again, running for 219 yards and two touchdowns to carry the Tennessee Titans to a 17-10 win. It was Henry’s fourth straight 200-yard game against the Texans, making him the first player in NFL history to have at least 150 yards and two touchdowns on the ground in four consecutive games against the same opponent. “When you get dominated up front on both sides of the football, it’s hard to get any game plan going.” Willis, who was the 86th pick in the draft, threw for 55 yards with an interception as Tannehill sat out for the first time since the seventh game of the 2019 season. “He’s not supposed to be that big running the ball that fast.” Henry found Pierce after the game and shared some encouraging words with the the rookie.
