Ahead of the Oct. 31 NFL trade deadline, Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry was one of the hottest names on the trade block.
The four-time Pro Bowler had more than a few suitors, and it was widely expected he would be playing on a different team come November. During a recent appearance on the “Bussin’ with the Boys” podcast, Henry admitted that a trade nearly happened but fell apart on the 1-yard line.
“I feel like it was close,” Henry said. “It was close. I know two [of the teams that wanted me] for sure [were playoff teams]. The other one, I don’t know if it would have happened, but one (team) I feel like was pretty close. A lot went down in that little saga with the trade and all that stuff.”
While Henry didn’t disclose which playoff teams made a play for him, the Baltimore Ravens, Buffalo Bills, Cleveland Browns, Dallas Cowboys and Tampa Bay Buccaneers are teams that made it to the postseason and were linked to Henry at one point or another in October.
