When asked why he thinks his and Henry’s names aren’t in that MVP conversation, he said, “I think now when we look at the award. It’s pretty much not a running back award. I think the things Derrick Henry is doing and I’m doing are great for our teams, they know we’re making plays pulling up the yardage and stuff. I think as the quarterback position they take so much and do so much, you know, you have to give those guys the award.”

It will be really interesting to watch who takes home the rushing crown. Either of them could be the one.
