FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE NOVEMBER 28, 2019 TITANS-COLTS SUPPLEMENTAL NOTES HENRY LEADING NFL IN RUSHING OVER LAST 16 GAMES: Titans running back Derrick Henry is on the verge of recording his second career and second consecutive 1,000-yard rushing season. He enters this week’s game at Indianapolis with 991 yards and 10 touchdowns on 206 rushing attempts. Henry can become the first player for the team since Chris Johnson (2008–2013) with consecutive 1,000-yard rushing seasons. He would join Eddie George (seven), Johnson (six) and Earl Campbell (five) as the only players in franchise history with multiple 1,000-yard rushing seasons. In the past year, Henry has been one of the NFL’s most productive running backs. During his last 16 games, which include the final five weeks of the 2018 season and the first 11 contests in 2019, his totals include 303 rushing attempts for 1,616 yards and 18 touchdowns. The yardage and touchdown totals are the best in the NFL in that time period, while his 5.3-yard rushing average leads all running backs. The only player with a better rushing average is Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (6.0). Additionally, Henry’s 20 total touchdowns in the past 16 games, which include two touchdown receptions, make up the largest total in the league.

The team accumulated 225 rushing yards against the Kansas City Chiefs on Nov. 10, followed by a 219-yard rushing performance against the Jacksonville Jaguars last Sunday. With 200 rushing yards this week at Indianapolis, it would mark the first three-game streak of its kind in franchise history. (continued on next page) No NFL team has registered three consecutive games with 200-plus rushing yards this season. In addition to the Titans, the Baltimore Ravens could also do so this week. The Ravens rushed for 200 yards in three consecutive games a season ago (Nov. 18, 2018–Dec. 2, 2018). Prior to that, the last time an NFL team hit the mark three times in a single season was 2010, when the Jaguars (Nov. 28–Dec. 12) and Kansas City Chiefs (Oct. 10–31) each accomplished the feat. This is only the seventh time in Titans/Oilers history the team has had back-to-back games with 200 rushing yards. The last time it happened was when the Titans rushed for 264 yards in a win against Jacksonville on Dec. 6, 2018 and followed with 215 rushing yards at the New York Giants on Dec. 16, 2018.

It marked the 11th time this season that Kern placed a punt inside the opponent’s 10-yard line, which leads the NFL. Since the beginning of the 2018 season, Kern has placed a league-high total of 24 punts inside the opponent’s 10-yard line. He recorded 13 such punts in 2018. Additionally, Kern has placed four punts inside the opponent’s five-yard line in 2019, which is tied for the NFL lead (Thomas Morstead, Cameron Johnson, Kevin Huber).

Brown produced 135 receiving yards last week, which was the second-highest single- game total by an NFL rookie in 2019. Baltimore Ravens rookie Marquise Brown’s 147 yards at the Miami Dolphins on Sept. 8 are the most through Week 12. A.J. Brown leads the Titans with 581 receiving yards and four touchdown catches on 31 total receptions (second on the team). He became the seventh player in franchise history to reach the 500-yard receiving mark in the first 11 games of his career. He is the second such player in the “Titans era” (1999–present) and the first since 2009, when Kenny Britt had 521 receiving yards in his first 11 contests.

In his first five starts, he led the Titans to a 4-1 record, and his passing numbers in those five games included 138 attempts, 98 completions, 10 touchdowns and three interceptions. Tannehill’s passer rating of 114.9 in those five games is the best in franchise history for a quarterback’s first five starts with the franchise. The previous record holder was Matt Hasselbeck, who joined the Titans in 2011 and produced a 95.9 passer rating in his first five starts.
