Ahead of the divisional-round matchup between the Tennessee Titans and Cincinnati Bengals, much of the talk has been about running back Derrick Henry. - Of course, Henry is set to make his return to action after missing the final nine games of the 2021 regular season due to a broken bone in his foot. - Earlier in the week, Bengals cornerback Mike Hilton explained what makes playing against Henry so difficult. - “(Henry) just wears on you. It might seem easy the first, second quarter, but towards the second half, just constantly tackling him, it definitely wears down on you. That’s what (the Titans) thrive off of. Constantly running the football, trying to wear you down and just make it difficult for a defense to tackle them in the fourth quarter. We know as a defense, we’ve got to get a lot of heads to the football and gang tackle.” - Now, let’s take a look at what other Bengals had to say about Henry and other members of the Titans ahead of their do-or-die contest on Saturday. - Note: All quotes courtesy of the Bengals’ official website.
