NASHVILLE, Tenn. – His podium interview conducted and concluded earlier than usual, Marcus Mariota sat back in his locker casually chatting with quarterback coach Jason Michael and director of sports medicine Todd Toriscelli late Monday.
Mariota and Michael looked over to Derrick Henry, surrounded by a media throng, and each grinned -- probably about the size of the crowd, the way we strained to contort into position where we could hear the running back and maybe at his army green shirt, that made him look like a military man, or his glasses, which make him look like a librarian.
Henry was smiling too, as he talked through the first 100-yard game of his NFL career and said he was ticked he didn’t hit the mark until the fourth-to-last play from scrimmage, a 72-yard TD run that made the final Titans 36, Colts 22.
