Derrick Henry Does Individual Drills On Monday

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry (foot) is getting some work in on Monday, according to head coach Mike Vrabel.

Bruce Arians Impressed With Ke'Shawn Vaughn

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Ke'Shawn Vaughn got some high praise from the team's head coach after his impressive performance in Week 16.

Washington Football Team wide receiver Dyami Brown finished with two receptions for 53 yards on Sunday night, which was enough to lead the team in receiving yards on just two targets.

John Bates Scores In Week 16
