Derrick Henry is close to achieving a significant NFL milestone, needing only 69 rushing yards to become the fourth player in league history with seven seasons of at least 1,000 rushing yards and 10 touchdowns. The other players with this achievement are LaDainian Tomlinson (8 times), Adrian Peterson (7 times), and Emmitt Smith (7 times). Henry has previously reached this mark in 2018, 2019, 2020, 2022, 2023, and 2024. Additionally, if Henry gains 150 or more yards against the Steelers, he will join Jim Brown as the only players with three games of 150+ rushing yards against the Steelers, including last year's playoff game, making him the only player to do so three consecutive times. The upcoming game is crucial, as the Steelers will likely focus on stopping Henry after a recent surge in rushing yards at home, and the game could influence the playoff picture for both teams. Henry's career is projected to eventually lead to Canton, Ohio, as he continues to set records and milestones.
