LeBron James has been absent from the hardwood floor in the Los Angeles Lakers outing against the Trailblazers. Despite that, the Lakers pulled a victory thanks to a double-double by Anthony Davis. While an injury has sidelined LBJ, he seems to be crowning another athlete as the chosen one.

King James has always been a fan of the NFL. His recent social media posts show it. During his downtime, Bron likes to keep a record of what’s going on in the world of football, whether it’s a college game or a professional league.

LeBron James crowns 247 lb NFL running back the new “Chosen 1”

That is none other than 247-pound NFL running back Derrick Henry. In his latest Instagram story, King James reposted a photo of the Tennessee Titan, where he shared two Nike shoes and one of them was LBJ’s kicks. The story was captioned, “Yes Sir, Henry!! One of the Chosen 1s!!”

The running back also shared another shoe with a theme of fruity pebbles. It’s interesting to see how King James always keeps up to date on the NFL, remaining a dedicated fan. The repost from King James, comes hours after a report that Henry might be traded by the Tennessee Titans. According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero, the Titans are willing to trade “most players” as they aim to make deals before the 2023 deadline.

The Athletic’s Dianna Russini noted that Derrick Henry and DeAndre Hopkins won’t be traded unless the Titans receive an “exceptional” offer. LeBron James has also posted a photo of stars from the F1 amid the Las Vegas crisis.
