Titans' Henry changes number to 22

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry is changing course before his rookie season officially begins.

The reigning Heisman Trophy winner will change his jersey number to 22 after playing through training camp and the preseason with a No. 2 jersey.

Henry could've made the move to No. 24 - the number he wore during the NFL Rookie Premier, after Perrish Cox changed to No. 20. Instead, he's decided to double up on twos instead.

It's likely Henry wants to start fresh after wearing No. 2 at Alabama, shaking things up to signify he's arrived as a pro. Though, he looked pretty good in the preseason wearing his college number.
