The Tom Brady to the Tennessee Titans talk this offseason has been fun to monitor, but it's not something that interests running back Derrick Henry.

Henry, who is scheduled to be a free agent when the new league year begins in March, was asked by Taylor Lewan on Bussin with the Boys how he'd feel about Brady coming to Tennessee.

The former Alabama running back responded "I'd think why isn’t Ryan Tannehill good enough?"

Henry added "When he (Tannehill) took over we were 2-4 and we ended up in the AFC Championship….speaking for everyone on the offense, we fed off of him…the chemistry was starting to build".

Lewan echoed Henry's sentiments, noting that he was impressed by Tannehill's leadership abilities.

Henry, who made sure to point out that Brady is the "Goat", closed with a statement that should leave no doubt that he wants to remain in Nashville.

"Ryan Tannehill is our quarterback and took us to the AFC Championship, why would we not want Ryan back."

Henry is speaking as though he plans on being in Tennessee in the longterm. Obviously there's a big contract (or franchise tag) that has to be worked out. But it's clear that Henry is thinking like he's going to be in a Titans uniform next season.
