Titans' Henry wins Offensive Player of the Year award after historic season
Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry took home the Offensive Player of the Year award at the NFL Honors event on Saturday.
Henry became the eighth player ever to run for over 2,000 yards in a season in 2020. He topped the league in rushing attempts (378), yards (2,027), and touchdowns (17) this campaign.
| Player | Team | Votes |
|---|---|---|
| Derrick Henry | Titans | 32 |
| Aaron Rodgers | Packers | 5 |
| Patrick Mahomes | Chiefs | 5 |
| Travis Kelce | Chiefs | 3 |
| Josh Allen | Bills | 3 |
| Alvin Kamara | Saints | 2 |
The 27-year-old has now led the NFL in all three rushing categories for two straight seasons.
Led by Henry, the Titans ranked fourth in scoring offense and posted an 11-5 record this campaign, winning the AFC South for the first time since 2008. Tennessee's 2020 season ended with a wild-card loss to the Baltimore Ravens.
The two-time Pro Bowler is the first running back since Todd Gurley in 2017 to be named Offensive Player of the Year. New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas won the award last season.
