Newsflash: Derrick Henry is a monster.

If we didn’t already know that after watching him rush for 2,219 yards and 28 touchdowns en route to a Heisman Trophy and national championship ring with Alabama in 2015 — or that he put up 22 reps on the 225-pound bench press and ran a 4.54 40-yard dash at 6-foot-3, 247 pounds at the NFL combine — we sure do now.

Back to work less than a week after being selected at No. 45 overall in the second round of the NFL Draft by the Tennessee Titans, Henry uploaded a short video to Instagram of him making 405-pound squat reps look like second nature.

Grind , pray & do it all again tomorrow
