Alabama running back Derrick Henry weighed in at 247 pounds at the NFL Combine
Derrick Henry of Alabama is a big boy, just ask Mark Ingram (HAHA). Today the Running backs and offensive lineman are in Indianapolis stepping on the scales for the NFL personnel, and Alabama running back Derrick Henry came in as the heaviest back at the event.
Henry weighed in at 247 pounds. According to the Alabama website, Henry played at 242. That is 6 pounds added, which could be muscle. If this kid runs in the 4.5’s it would be impressive. If he runs under 4.5’s watch out he maybe a first round pick for sure.
