This this was not him tackling Derek Henry when Derek Henry was running the motherfucking ball. We need to set that clear. We need to set that clear. The picture just give off like he just fuck that Derek Henry up. He ain't just fuck that Derek Henry up. Let's not do that. Derek Henry caught the ball off the backfield. As soon as he turned, he was hit. Now was it a textbook form tackle? Absolutely. But anybody can get hit if they ain't start getting moving. Anybody can get hit if they ain't start getting moving. You think if Derek Henry was on his horse by time he met him, he would have made that same identical tackle? Hell no. Hell no. That tackle, yes. But can y'all please stop acting like that was the greatest tackle on Derek Henry ever? No. It wasn't. It was a perfectly timed tackle because he got his ass before he can get moving. And that's the best way.
