30 NFL records that could be broken this season

22. Derrick Henry, Titans franchise rushing yards

Derrick Henry was an outside cut candidate, but it’s pretty clear he’s spending another season in Tennessee. With so much uncertainty around the running back position, these stars need to prove themselves every year. Henry was just as good last season as he’s been his entire career. He had 1,538 yards on a league-leading 349 carries.

Henry is currently third in Oilers/Titans all-time rushing yards. He’s behind Eddie George and Earl Campbell, two of the all-time greats at the position. Right now, he’s about 240 yards behind Campbell. Henry could get that in Week 1. To get to George, Henry has to hit 10,009 yards. He needs 1,674 yards to tie the record.

Is that doable in 2023? He’s broken that number once in his career. However, there is more on the line this season. If he isn’t one of the best in the league, he will be looking for a job like Dalvin Cook is this offseason.

Also, the Titans should have an interesting offense. Ryan Tannehill is the starting quarterback. They have DeAndre Hopkins signed to play alongside Treylon Burks and Chigoziem Okonkwo, who we’re expecting to break out this season. That will open up holes for Henry. He’s going to have another great season. Will he break the record? It’s absolutely possible.
